    @HolyRollah I'm kinda disappointed I can't see any of your Wostenholm razors from the last 3 days. I really enjoy your sweet razors .

    I used my Engstrom frameback this morning, along with Proraso red in the mug, Maggards synthetic brush and Aqua Velva musk to top it all off. Three passes and I'm good. I'm finally able to get a good shave on and under my chin. Yes!!!!!

    Two Pass Shaving Routine...:cool:

    Hot Water prep & massage with Argan Oil
    Henkels Solingen 7/8th
    Hans Baier Silver Tip
    Volbora Tallow Soap
    Thayer's Witch Hazel
    Hattric Aftershave

    I came out my Morning Meditation this Morning as part of my Gung Fu Practice & enjoyed my Shave with my Henkels 7/8..The Mindful Focus of Mediation on One Single Issue Transcends itself into a One Single Focused Activity such as Shaving with an SR..Anybody that has spent time in Seated Mediation will know that the mind can only Focus on One Single Issue at any Given Time..Multi Tasking is a Delusion of the Modern World..;)

    This Razor is ever so comfortable & forgiving..I had 3 days of Growth to Cut down & One WTG & One ATG Pass and Dolphin Smooth..This is the 1st time I have used this Volbora Tallow Soap..Is a good old fashioned tallow soap with quite a sophisticated kinda scent & does the job very well..I enjoyed my Sunday Morning Shave.:p

    Time for some Gung Fu Practice and then Go for a Pint or Two at my Local ..:eatdrink047:

    I like the bigger blades Koraats are heavy blades, the bigger you can get more lather on it before you have to wipe it! lOl
