Sorry, I wasn't trying to suggest the Astra would work for you. I am was only saying that for me, the Wilkinson proved to be much worse. I felt the same way when the Wilkinsons are compared to the Voskhods or GSB. Good luck none the less
April 14 Z3 Gillette Super Speed Feather (3) Simpson Chubby 2 Super Castle Forbes Lavender shave cream Alum, Thayer's Lavender witch hazel & unrefined shea butter Alt-Innsbruck aftershave Zegna Uomo EDT This was my first shave with CF Lavender. It has a nice, strong scent, and the Chubby 2 whipped it into a fantastic lather. I'm near BBS after two passes and touch-ups. I finished up with Alt-Innsbruck, and I'm ready for the day. Have a blessed Good Friday, everyone!
I'm walking on clouds. I've been trying to learn to hone with mixed results. Well, today I hit the jackpot. I honed this razor yesterday and got the best shave this morning. This shave was as good as I've ever had with a professionally honed razor. I'm BBS with no irritation from the AS. Thank you to all that have helped me learn this. Let's hope I can do it consistently Arko Shave Stick Wolf Whiskers Brush Torrey Razor Thayers Witch Hazel Pinaud Lilac Vegetal After Shave Happy Friday!
Congrats Brian. You've made a lot of progress with straight shaving and now with honing! Great job! Nice comb! Is it for your wrists and forearms?
The 16 month old went off like a deranged alarm clock that kicked every time you hit the snooze button, from approximately 2:15am-6:45am. (My wife thought I got up early and left for work, and didn't find me till she came in to check on the baby.)
