    Another shave, with the Modern Made Straight Razor. I had a silky smooth 2 pass shave, with minor touch ups. I had to go light, because this thing takes on a dangerously sharp edge. I ended up with a BBS shave, and only one small weeper. Never felt it. Fantastic razor, excellent steel. Not the prettiest, but I'm not into too much bling.

    Razor- Hart Steel, James Arman. American Made.
    Brush- RazoRock 400/WD High Mountain Badger.
    Cream- AOS Kingsman Bourbon. Very high quality, lathers fast, and super slick. A pleasant scent.
    Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice

    Wanted to do a Daily Double today, actually triple, but the Type E Schick is a part of everyday use. The Herder did most of the work. Did an against the grain neck with the Feather SS and side burn and nostrils with the Schick.

    Sub Cero 14, shave #5 - I’m wanting to see how long the edge lasts compared to a DT but I’m not really wanting to go on another single-razor marathon, so I’m just going to bring this razor up in the rotation more often and keep track of the number of shaves. Cream was the splendid Castle Forbes lime lathered with. Simpsons 58, and a splash Of Myrsol Limon finished up.

    Mike Martinez 9/8 Karasu - the big razor is a half hollow so it is a big girl. The edge on this razor is fantastic. I fun shave today.

    That's a beautiful brush you got there. I'm going to try and venture into using my straight razor tommorow if my hands aren't numb as usual in the morning.

    It just hit me why I like this one so much... it is a cross between a Saito (the smile) and a Heljestrand (the heel to tang transition)... and then you gave it a few doses of steroids. :)
    Beauty Keith!
