Today was rather nice from a lather point of view after the C&S test. The razor was a newly acquired Filarmonica 14 Sub Cero out for it’s second shave, and some vintage AoS Rose Absolute gave a perfect lather. A little splash of C&S 88 returned a very pleasant shave.

Here’s my 11/16 TI Basic Black, freshened up last evening and shaved like you would expect from a C135 TI. Cream was SMN lathered with a Tulip 3 two band, and ABC red sandalwood finished things up.
A very enjoyable, flawless shave with the Dubl Duck today. Recently polished up having made a pin adjustment to better center it earlier this week. Wunderbar!

Thursday morning shave, CVH MK No.30. These quite small razors are lovely to shave with. Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk
Send it to me, I am half German so that it comes in to safe hands . Honestly I have never used such a broad sword, isn’t it tricky under the nose and around the chin? Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk
It may be too dangerous for you Hans, send it to me Billy and when it’s down to 5/8 I’ll send it on to Hans. Today’s shave was very simple and difficult to better, Filly Novodur 14, ABC soap and almond balm. A Persian Jar 3 did the lathering. I am BDBS!
So Steve, you are revealed! You don’t strop your razors, you actually hone them after every shave Skickat från min iPhone med Tapatalk
Lol, no Hans, I strop. There’s a thread here where I did an edge longevity test using only linen and leather, 153 shaves from a Sub Cero.
