    My newest purchase was this 13/16 Revisor NOS- I used it today and what a shaver, just stropped it, did not need honed
    Soap - Martin De Candre with some Coates almond crème and a dab of glycerin, what a nice lather
    After shave splash - my favorite Floid Black label followed up by some Razo rock balm Revisor 13-16.jpg

    Kiku Okan 77. Kind of unusual in a J-West in that it's an Irish/French point.

    You really need to get your hooks in a J-West, they are incredible razors that produce fantastic shaves.

    W&B 13/16 India Steel wedge. I've no idea if it's truly wootz steel or just some Victorian marketing scheme, but no matter really...it holds a wicked edge and shaves aphid's arse close. :D Have a great weekend folks.

    In years past, for me most things, including getting out of bed, involved a lot of drinking whisky (Irish, single malt Scotch my weapons of choice due to genetic predisposition). Since February 2013 however I no longer truck with Old John Barleycorn :angelic007:.

    On the up side, at this rate, I may not die of liver failure or pancreatitis before I turn 50!

    Congrats, brother. 34 years for me and I haven't missed the jail house yet. I could tell you stories of the Santa Anna Brig that would make your nose hairs curl. Well that's history on to better days.

    Arko still irritates my face but I had to try again. Have a good one.
