That's so strange my order processed and shipped without a hiccup, have you reached out to Mr. Fine?

 

No figured it wouldn't do any good since order shipped and only two items on this order. I have all but the snakebite and If I decide to pull the trigger on that one I'll just add it to another order from different vendor.

Evening Shave for
FRIDAY
My first shave on this newly-restored razor from the old Sheffield shop of Marshes & Shepherd (1824-1848), manufacturers of assorted cutlery items as all as 'fine razors.'
This old wedge blade with a slight smile took a very keen, sticky-to-the-touch edge. Finished on a natural stone. Three very smooth, comfortable passes with some slick MWF lather.
Overall, an exceptionally smooth shave.
Have a great Friday, all!

A fantastic shave this Friday morning with the Fatboy,shall we say a BBS finish!!!

Hart Steel
Myrsol Emulsion - pre shave
T&H 1805 - went for a thinner lather to see if it would increase the slickness.

Great shave.

My only "issue" so far is that this cream leaves behind a chalky white residue which adds a little extra clean-up time to the routine.

Have a great Friday gents.

 

Wow, great perspective on this photo!
