    Tonight's shave was with a French Beauty. I had a great 2 pass shave, that went smooth as silk, and left me BDBS. Zero issues. These French razors are usually very well made, and a bargain.

    Razor- Leon Pellaray. Paris France.
    Brush- JR#262, Birdseye Maple and Ebony. WD Silvertip Badger knot.
    Soap- Arko/Sandalwood scented
    Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice. Lighthouse Decanter.

    Cold Water Wash
    Colgate Shaving Mug Soap
    Jayaruh #312
    H. Böker 5/8
    CWR
    Florida Water

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Colgate Shaving Mug Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #312 brush. I did two passes with the H. Böker 5/8 straight and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Today's shave was with an American made Razor. I had a very smooth 2 pass shave, that left me with BBS results. Zero issues. Nothing fancy, just an excellent performing razor.

    Brush- JR#262(@Jayaruh ). Birdseye Maple/Ebony wood. Whipped Dog Silvertip Badger
    Soap- Arko/Sandalwood Scented
    Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman.

    It was a custom request. He did the woodwork, and I finished it out with, sanding, and several coats of finish.
    This one and #263 are twins, and some of the best he has done, in my opinion.
