What Straight Razor Did You Use Today?

Henckels "1070" honed last night...

 

This Otto Busch Weltmeister and I spent a lot of time together when I was learning to shave with a straight. Always a good shave.

Happy shaving - Karl

 

Tonight's shave was with a very nice Solingen made razor. I had a super smooth and noisy 2 pass shave, that left me near BBS, without touch-ups. I had zero issues.

Razor- "Hugo Rader 38", Solingen made.
Brush- Stirling Boar
Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy
Aftershave- Florida Water +.

 

How do you like the Culmack brush? I have one and it is the nicest softest hair of any of my brushes but it is tiny, so I can't use it for a four pass shave.

 

The knot is very nice. This is a wonderful brush for face lathering. I did an easy three passes this morning and might have had enough for a fourth. Of course, that might be because the Tabac exploded with lather.

 

Razor: Robert Williams Purist
Strop: Mastro Livi
Brush: Omega Silver Tip
Pre: Nivea
Soap: Castle Forbes
AS: Lucky Tiger
Scent: SMN Peau d’ España
