    Good morning fellas!
    Straight razor shave #92
    Böker King Cutter
    Omega 49 Boar Brush
    Stirling Satsuma SS and AS
    I did something a little different today in my facelathering technique. I decided not to bloom the soap and just swirl my brush so that it was a paste. Pasted my face and then slowly added water to work the lather. It turned out fine, but I think I will continue to bloom the soap because I like a wetter lather. Anyway, I did 3 passes and touchups because the Kingcutter was not as sharp as I would have liked it. I did get an IBSS and that's fine with me. I Croxed the KingCutter after my shave and went over some areas and yes, it was a lot sharper. So, I will use it on my next shave to see and feel the difference in the Crox refresh. Finished with matching aftershave. Have a great day, guys! 20190801_083715.jpg 20190801_083715.jpg

    Fabulous Joe. I like to meet in the middle with my lather...not runny but yet not too pastey. Fine line to walk with some soaps though.

    Thanks Patrick! Since I am predominantly a straight razor shaver, I need my lather on the wet side because the blade glides along the face much easier.

    Great shave Jim!
    Fantastic shave Joe! I bet the razor will cut like a dream next shave. I'm with you on the sloppy wet lather!

    Thanks, Andrew! Even though the KingCutter was not at its sharpest, I still got a very good, close, comfortable shave.
