What Straight Razor Did You Use Today?

Hey @Karl G - I re-finished it and got the HHT that I am looking for. Details in the honing thread.

Ed Brice 6/8 half hollow

 

Very nice brush & razor combo Keith... very cool red.

 

Testing the orihi edge (got it!), and the new little stone with the user Filly 14. The new stone is good, maybe 2% instead of 1%, but really too early to tell.

Soap was Savonnière du Moulin lathered with a Simpsons 57, and a dab of ABC from the travel kit finished up. And I’ve almost used up the balm in the Cointreau bottle.

 

7/8 Muschel
Viking No Scent Shave Cream
Barbershoppe Horse Hair Brush

Had a two day growth. Needed a good heavy blade. Without a doubt, this Muschel would handle the job.

Another great shave from the Muschel. Wish the stains would come out. Buffing has no effect. Sad face.

Easy and smooth. No nonsense when it comes to this razor. The second pass was as comfortable as the first. Just a good, clean shave. I enjoy this razor. A +

A good clean with Witch Hazel, hot shower and the smell good of the day is Obsession Eau de Toilette.

Good day everyone.

The Kropp was a lovely shave today. I had just shed my Covid hair at the barber after 14 months of growth. The shave completed the clean look. Wonderful brush, my favorite, and my becoming a favorite Old Spice along with a wonderful soap made for a great re-entry into my post-vaccination world. Smooth, smooth, smooth. Clean, clean, clean

Happy shaving - Karl

 

SK-3? The Saito SK series are fantastic razors.

 

Friodur, full hollow 7/8 razor that is also an extra 1/4 inch in length. She does take a fantastic edge.

 

Yesterday shave, CVH No.7. Today’s shave Ralf Aust Rosewood. I must say that the German works, but the 100 years older CVH is better. Much more a precision tool.

Saturday Straights' Shave


Cold Water Rinse
LaToja Shaving Stick
Tom's B400 Two-band Badger
Joseph Elliot
CWR
Florida Water

The LaToja Shaving Stick Shave Soap lathered well with Tom's B400 Two-band Badger. Two passes and touch ups with the Joseph Elliot razor gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

 

Funny name, Kropp means body in Swedish

Nice razor Tom, there is something special with the 30 series from CVH.

The new kid shaves as well as it looks.

 

Thank you Hans, I completely agree.

 

I have one of those, they do take a wonderful edge. The extra length makes for a BIG razor though!
