    Nice clean Injun Primo. A good Boker is hard to beat.

    Today my 10€ brocante razor was up, a 7/8 Gauthier Pont St Esprit, which I had re-scaled in Turkish burl. This razor shaves really, really well. Soap was PdP lathered with a Tulip 2, and a little AB finished up a dolphin smooth shave.

    Two Salamander brand razors for a daily double. The top is a hollow ground while the bottom a wedge. Both are honed to 200k. Both are near shavette.

    Maiden shave for the Le Grelot Zenith, a very hollow true 6/8 (measured to the shoulder of the spine, not the top). Soap was PdP lathered with a Tulip 2, and a dab of ABC almond balm finished just for a change of pace. Baby dolphin butt smooth.

    Great shave today, except the wife made the mustache come off. Well, it was nice and bushy, for 1 month, exactly. This German made razor took it off, like it wasn't there. Smooth as silk 2 pass shave, that left me BDBS. A finely made razor.

    Razor- "MAX", Prima, Solingen Germany.
    Brush- The Brush, B400, By Tom. Omega knot.
    Soap- ARKO/Avon Spicy scented.
    Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice.
