What straight did you use today? Now with PICTURES

[Bevel]

Razor: Geneva - Not sure if I've ever used this before although I've had it ages. I busted the scales restoring this. They look great so I wanted to keep them but they're quite flimsy and had to reposition the pivot pin. Peened a second pin into the original hole to cover my tracks. Shave was 6/10 and I can't remember what edge is on it so it'll need a trip back to the stones.
Soap: Speick Active - Loving my Speick soaps recently
Brush: Homemade Badger High mountain Silvertip. I love this lather pillow.

6/8 Wester Brothers / Stirling Orange Chill / vintage ER reknotted Boar / Avon Tai Winds in the 65 Mustang -- #49 - my first "full" straight (or any shave) since ~11 May to heal after a dermatology treatment so I've been gone a while. I left the goatee, but took the nearly 2-month beard off with a single pass, a clean up and with no blood drawn. It sure feels great to be rid of all of that fur, I really missed the shaving experience and the prep, etc., I was nervous that I'd be rusty, but I just cleared my mind and I was amazed at how muscle memory just kicked in after nearly two months and how effortlessly the blade handled the whiskers without any drama, just satisfying audible feedback and terrific face feel afterward.

Never had a beard, never will but I would really like to take off a full beard with one of my straights.
I'd try to take it off in one piece so I could put it back on again. Off, On, Off, On.

A leisurely shave before marina shopping with SWMBO. We discussed the whole day's plan throughout the shave. BBS result, but so much irritation. Not from the shave though ... JK.

Razor Joseph Elliott 13/16
An excellent razor for today's shave. Finally, a no-working weekend means not being in a hurry translating to a better finish.

Henckels Friodur 472 13/16 Hollow Ground - PAA Peregrino - Proraso Cypress & Vetyver - Witch...

Friodur today, freshly honed by Dave at ARC. Edge was keen, but a little "grabby" around the areas under my lower lip and around the chin (this is where my beard is thickest). Persevered for two passes and ended up with a SAS.

Genco Expert, soap was Pre de Provence lathered with an @oscar11 -handled Zenith knot, and Myrsol Formula C finished up Saturday morning’s shave. The razor, brush, soap, and AS all performed exceptionally well.

Trying a couple edges that had been finished on a coti earlier, that I did on the same coti with oil this time. Both had been shaving well but both were improved. The Herder was sublime, so it got most of the action today. Le Pere Lucien Oud Neroli and the Veg were the software.
