Saturday Straight's Shave Proraso Pre Shave Williams Mug Shave Soap JR#206 2-band Badger Luxor Pro Master Voskhod Teflon Coated CWR Thayer's Lemon WH Vegetal I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The Williams Mug Shave Soap face-lathered well with the JR #206 2-band Badger brush. I did two passes with the Luxor Pro Master Razor with a Voskhod Teflon Coated half-blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Vegetal AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed... Edit: True confessions time. I am admitting to introducing another razor into this shave. I used my new Henckels Rapide wedge on my right cheek just as a test. I was very happy to find out that it is up to the task. So, tomorrow, I am going to use the other Henckels wedge in my Gem Jr. for a test. I plan to be using the Henckels all next week. I may or may not be sending my wedges to @twhite for honing.
