What's new

What straight did you use today? Now with PICTURES

The Plum Military Razor.
I went to look up what I used to hone it on last time as it was a stellar edge and I haven't recorded it yet, DOH!

Late-in-the-day shave today so I thought I'd try a few things. Prep was a hot water splash, no shower, and then I tried a two-pass (WTG, ATG) "quickie". Face was BBS, but the neck was only SAS+. Went for a second ATG on the neck and got to CCS++ and decided to stop there.

Three passes will continue to be my norm (two passes left me feeling a bit "cheated"), but this tells me that my three passes are covering up some room for improvement in my technique.

Totally bogus
Getting pretty outstanding face shaves lately. (I still do my head with my Carbon Shaving CX-316L DE razor).

Today was shave #10 with a straight razor. Minor nick under my nose. First one ever.

Razor: W H Morley
Lather: A&E Peach Cognac
Toner: Thayer’s Unscented
Balm: Soap Commander “Integrity“ (Unscented)
Splash: A&E Peach Cognac
Brush: WCS Beacon (silvertip)
Bowl: Captains Choice

Insane lather.
Crazy nice scent. (Limited run)
Face toning was incredible.

Happy man.
