    Zowada Timehagane, cream and balm were AdP, and a Morris and Forndran L7 mixed up a great batch of lather.

    So is that razor selling you on a potential addition Steve? :)

    It looks promising Tom, but probably not until after the first of the year, they are pricey!

    Another shave with the Houwink. I think it is a rebranded razor, but it has the added detail of ice skating and a skater falling on his backside.

    Shaving soap was cella, omega boar brush and clubman pinauld as.

    Thank you. And beautiful Drew Dick... the swooping profile of his razors are really eye catching, and the green scales are very cool.

    My Ertan Süer reappeared to pair up with Arko. Basic 5/8 round point razor, great results.

    Been playing with a Naniwa progression and going around the world :). Here is the stop in France...

    4/8” would not be my razor of choice but this wasn’t half bad.

    And the scent of this soap was amazing!!!

    Two Pass Shaving Routine..:cool:

    Hot Water Prep & Massage with Argan Oil
    Taylor Witness Sheffield Full Hollow 15/16th (Freshly Honed)
    Fitchard Pure Badger
    Valobra Tallow Soap
    Humphreys Witch Hazel

    I Had a Late Evening Shave with My Taylor Witness Sheffield 15/16th..Finished On My Newly Acquired Coticule..I Like a Higher Grit Finishing Stone as the Norm..But the Edge on this Razor is Superb & as Keen as Mustard & Buttery Smooth & Forgiving..A Fine Coticule Sure Does Put a Nice Shaving Edge on Sheffield Steel..I Am Delighted at the Performance of My Newly Acquired Vintage Coticule..:)

    Not So Delighted that I Am Running Out of Valobra Tallow Soap & Just Found Out I Cant Get it Anymore..Stopped Making it..It Would Appear ..:angry032:

    I Am Dolphin Smooth & Refreshed..:happy088:

    Billy..:chores016:
