    @Paul76 That's a beauty of an Ern!
    @Keithmax is that Rikisha have Tanufuji stamps on it, just curious?

    So yesterday was a Le Jaguar 6/8+ with I Coloniali Mango Oil soap lathered up with a TOBS super badger brush, and topped off with Lucky Tiger. The Jag always delivers, love that old French steel - when I can find it in good condition.

    This morning was the dependable and fine shaving Filly 14 user grade, and a Simpsons 57 lathering Martin de Candre fougere, a perfect summer scent. D. R. Harris Pink finished off a fine shave.

    Cheers, Steve

    Hisyakaku (apparently means 'knight' as in chess) near 7/8 and 1/4 grind or a bit heavier. If you like Wade and Butcher FBUs, you'd love this; fine Japanese steel, impeccable griding with tiny bevels in spite of the heavy grind. And amazingly, good scales for a change. A three-band HMW lathered up some SMN and Harris Pink finished the shave nicely.

    Cheers, Steve
