  5. I would be happy to have two of these razors. The Tamako YSK lives up to the masa steel iron sands reputation. About as easy and close as a shave can be :happy036:

  6. Wrll, getting near the end of summer and the summer ‘work’ is winding down, so maybe I’ll be posting more - I miss my TSD friends! I have a new roof, a new mower, trimmed up trees, and got the work for winter mostly done on my old truck, a 2004 4Runner which I like.

    Kiku Okan tamahagane up today, with an oil edge from a Pennsylvania blue slate. Doap was Golddachs Speziale and the shave was very, very good.

    I seem to be having trouble with attachments since iPadOS 17, so no image.

    Or maybe two ….

    Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Col Conk Amber Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #447
    Gold Dollar 280
    CWR
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Aqua Velva Musk AS

    The Col Conk Amber Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #447 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gold Dollar 280 straight gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  13. Nice razor Steve, is the blade detachable? Or is it a regular frame back?

  15. It’s a regular frameback Hans, I don’t think that the Japanese made interchangeable blade framebacks.

    Kamisori Monday!! Shizu saburo for a effortless bbs shave. There's something just cool about shaving with a kami. The shave den shop soap & aftershave tobacco leaf for lather and a smell good left my face feeling refreshed and smooth! Compress_20231002_221328_8499.jpg
