    It's been a while since I've posted but had a great shave early this morning. Custom 6/8" French-point razor from Brian Brown; Martin de Candre 'Fougére' soap, custom Jayaruh two-band badger brush and Fine 'Platinum' aftershave to finish. Have a blessed Wednesday, all!

    I’ve been experimenting with my yellow/green Thuri by incrementally adding time and strokes on each refresh to feel the impact of a few minutes more each time. Tonight was the third iteration on the stones and the Big Napoleon performed wonderfully. A two pass shave on a two day old beard is a great test bed and I’ve got that face-rubbing thing going on. :happy036:
