Today's shave was even better than yesterday's which i didn't even think was possible. Surprisingly i forgot to use my pre shave oil this morning. Gonna exclude it tomorrow again just to see if this might have been the difference. Dolphin smooth again today, beautiful! Proraso Green is such a performer and a true value for the money. Wonderful finish with the Glacial Lemon Chill Balm from Stirling. Have a great shave and a great day guys.
How do you like that Fine Slant? I've heard good and bad. The bad mostly about the light weight materials. Looks nice!

Menthol Monday Great early morning shave today with a vintage 5/8 wedge from George Wostenholm. Menthol-bombed MWF lather and Route 66 'Lumberjack' balm finish.

In honor of @Rufus T. and Hydro-Magic May the Wedge Train has made an unscheduled stop. Today's SOTD featured my K3. Clean, easy, great shave. The seller thought it was a cut-off K2 and kindly sent me the medallion and case when I asked if she had them. @Billyfergie has two excellent examples of these and are the only other ones I've seen. Surprisingly it gave me a few very small weepers, something the wedges have been remarkably free of. Who'd have thought?
