Rating: 5 / 5
Razor: Double Duck Goldenedge
Brush: Jayruh 410 with Omega #48 Boar
Lather: Williams Mug Soap
Aftershave: Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue
Additional Care:

Prior to my morning workout, I added some water to Williams mug soap in my alter-ego mug “Grumpy”.
The @Jayruh Boar#410, recently acquired, whipped up a thick lather in the bowl following a 20-25 second load.
I opted to use a straight for this shave. Most times when I use the Williams soap the razor of choice is a DE or SE.
The Double Duck was due up next in the straight razor rotation. Despite of being concern with the slickness factor or the Williams when compared with some of the other artisan soaps that I use, the razor soap combination gave me a wonderful three pass shave without an incidents of cuts, weepers or irritation. A great three pass shave.
The alum block affirmed the quality of this shave with its silent approval.
The witch hazel, AV and balm were the icing on a fabulous iced water shave. I was feeling and smelling good for my trip to school to clean out some things from my work area.
