    Furbo Blu
    Homemade brush/SynBad knot
    Gents Gin

    Great shave this morning. Blade was touched up with my black arkie. The stone is finally getting to be a nice finisher, it's taken awhile though. The SynBad knot is a nice one, imo, if your into synthetics. The Furbo Blu was very slick and provided a excellent shave, love the scent and menthol is just right for me. Have a good one.

    15/16” Kropp
    Small edge defect near the toe. Figured I would sharpen and shave with it before deciding on any major “surgery.” No issues at all with the shave... quite nice and comfortable.

    2 SOTDs in one shot because I’m getting lazy with photos lol

    Day 1
    Razor: 15/16 Barbers Rattler
    Soap: Talbot Valley of Fire
    Brush: Shavemac D01 28mm
    Aftershave: Talbot Valley of Fire

    Today
    Razor: Celebrated 9/8 FBU
    Soap: Talbot Coles Pond
    Brush: Declaration B5 Unicorn
    Aftershave: Talbot Coles Pond

    Both were amazing shaves! I had to bring down the edge on the 9/8 because it was just too aggressive for me and I couldn’t really enjoy the times I used it. I didn’t kill the edge but I did refresh it using a tomo Nagura and finished on clear water. The 15/16 needed a quick couple passes on clear water just to bring it back a tad. Both razors had well over 10 shaves on them each so it was about that time for me.
