    Newly acquired, freshly honed, Opp's barber supply. This one is made in Germany. It took a fine edge, without any effort.
    After three passes I ended up with a smooth as glass finish.

    Tonight's shave was with a delicate Covered Tang razor. I had a very nice 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. This is one of my favorites. It is light, very sharp, and very precise. I have not seen another exactly like this.

    Razor- "Excelsior"
    Brush- Semogue 1800 Boar
    Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy scented
    Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy

    Dovo Bismarck 6/8. This was a Christmas gift. Scalpel sharp, and butter smooth. The thumb notch and shoulderless design, make this one a joy to shave with and to strop. Always a bbs finish. Used up my last bit is Stirling Tuscany with today's shave.

    Tonight's shave was with a trusted French Razor. I had a very smooth 2 pass shave, that left me near BBS, without touch-ups. Excellent made Razor. I enjoy the few French Razors I own.

    Razor- Leon Pelleray. Paris. Rattler Razor.
    Brush- Semogue 1800 Boar
    Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy
    Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice
