    Freshly honed Yasuki steel was every bit as excellent as expected.

    Saturday Straights' Shave
    [​IMG]

    Cold Water Rinse
    Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap
    Tom's B-400 Two-band Badger
    Gebr. Becker 5/8 (first shave)
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk

    This is my first shave with the Gebr. Becker 5/8, a gift from @DaltonGang .

    The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Tom's B-400 Two-band Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Gebr. Becker 5/8 gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Wow, that's a gorgeous razor, Steve.

    Keith and Tom: The quality and depth of your straight collections continues to blow me away. I do not need any more straights, but your "cast offs" would be a "trade up" for most of my collection. CRAZY!!!

    Thanks Randy! Keith’s customs definitely get the juices flowing and his pics have somehow cost me money :).

    Today’s image is an old one, but I used the same hardware and software - it’s hard to beat Joseph Rodgers and Floris for a Saturday morning shave.

    Yesterday was shave #105 on the Sub Cero.

    Maiden voyage of the new Rigarazor, and it was just perfect. The razor took a butterknife smooth edge from one of Alex Gilmore’s hoard koppas, and it was like shaving with your index finger. Soap was pre-reformulation Acca Kappa, which always gives up a good shave, and the balm was ABC almond.

    I used the P Serindat again.

    It is a really nice razor. The soap was zardos from savonnerie de la drome which I picked up in Die when I was camping in the Drome.

    I was planning to visit it again this spring, but the fact is that everything is closed.

    We all hope for better times and surely they will come.

    Have a nice day and shave.
