Quick our the door shave this am
Really not fair as last evening shave was bbs with a le petite blanche edge
( still testing but phenomenal last 4 shaves off new coti),,
Decided to change things up, new fresh edge and test la lune stone

Set bevel on lpb coti then, 10x on la lune, water and glycerin
Very nice smooth sharp edge, tad towards sharp but extremely comfortable
Cheers all

First drive in Henckels 9 after removing a few big chips.

Something was not working with my lather today. I even tried a second razor to make sure it wasn't the razor.

Digression: Apparently, one should not cook meat in a Swedish crepe pan. Something to do with enzymes. And if you do, you need to re-season the pan before making more crepes. I wonder if the same things happens when you move a brush between tallow-based, and vegan soaps and creams.

Inaugural run of a CF Wolfertz and Co., Allentown. Seems to be a bit of an underrepresented razor, but it's a beauty! I know that my honing ability is a work in progress, but this is my sharpest blade yet.

Supporting cast:
Gillette Flare Tip with vintage Spoiler blade,
Funky 2-band and Ethos Colonia soap.
Excellent shave all around!
