    Hot wash w/Neutrogena Men Invigorating Facewash
    Hot towel
    Stag B1190 "Badger Cased" Brush
    C.O. Bigelow
    One Blade Core w/Feather FHS (2)
    4 passes, touch up
    Cold rinse
    Alum
    Thayers Witch Hazel
    Duke Cannon Ice Cold AS Balm
    Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue

    Great shave. The Stag was very floppy, and lost several fibers. I'm sure I'll re-knot it. It will look nice once I polish it.

    Wednesday March 11th SOTD

    I received this gently used Ikon X3 and thought I'd give it a whirl... All I can say is WOW!! A very smooth and efficient shaver. I may get rid of my other slants and just keep this one TBH. I usually end up with a couple mild weepers when I use a slant - not today. Went well paired with my Turkish set up with Arko and my Turkish copper . I think I'll use the Ikon X3 tomorrow. Happy shaves all.
