I finished a couple of razors on the Arkie yesterday and the Wester Bros. was one of them. It provided a very nice shave but the difference was not as much as I expected. When I finished, I realized I had not completed the process by stropping the freshly honed blade on the scrub and finished leather. Arghhh. Needless to say, the other razor I took to the Arkie has now been properly stropped and is ready to go on Saturday.

Windrose Polsilver Super Iridium (1) Razorock Plissoft Proraso red Hema Shea Butter ASB A fine headshave once again. My first headshave with the Plissoft. It is a very nice brush to use on the scalp, especially when the lather is still nice and warm. A smooth head was the only possible outcome.
