What Straight Razor Did You Use Today?

Always love a SMILE... Beauty Keith!

Workmanlike shave tonight with the Carl Rader Spanish pt 35
No beauty queen - seen some abuse in its time, but really love the size, shape & balance.

Enjoy your shave.

Beautiful, Keith. I gotta get me one of those someday...

 

Portland 1905

 

I’ll be shaving with my 6/8 Hayashi 1000 user today and tomorrow, feeling out a couple of new stones. Soap was AoS tallow lavender lathered with a Simpsons 57, and a splash of Myrsol Limon finished up a great shave.

BTW, Myrsol Agua de Limon is said to be a fleeting scent by almost anyone who comments on it. The scent has lasted on me very respectably, I can smell the remnants of it 3-4h later.

very cool..

 

Same 6/8 Hayashi user, sitting on the odd-looking stone that I’m testing. It passed very well, so tomorrow is a user Filly 14. The HHT from the Filly wasn’t perfect root in, but close enough that I’ll try it. If I’m happy with the Filly, on to a Puma Inox.

Soap was AoS lemon tallow in a l’OP UFO bowl, lathered with a Keyhole 2. A splash of Myrsol limon finished up.

Really good-looking straights, boys.

 

Billy, if you own a smiling razor, then you could say it was a cackling shave! I am cackling out loud!
