What Straight Razor Did You Use Today?

Hart Steel 6/8

 

I am inspired, I will use my Riga Razor tomorrow.

 

Saturday Straights' Shave


Cold Water Wash
Jeeves of Hudson Street
Jayaruh #305
Joseph Elliot Wedge 6/8
CWR
Granddad's AS

My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Jeeves of Hudson Street Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #305 brush. I did two passes with the Joseph Elliot Wedge 6/8 Razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Granddad's AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Shaves as great as a vintage and looks “Mesmerizing”... to borrow from my chosen Avon A/S
Enjoy your shave!

Thank you. Got caught napping on a Lewis Kamisori a few years back. Glad the stars aligned on this one.

 

Today's shave was with an English Razor. I had a buttery smooth 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Zero issues. Just a fantastic razor.

Razor- "Witness", by Taylor. Extra Hollow Ground. Sheffield England.
Brush- Wilkinson Sword Boar.
Soap- Arko/Sandalwood Scented
Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy. Triple Crown Decanter.

 

What type of Finish did you use on the Taylor.

 

If your talking finishing stones, i used Welsh Slate Stones, and finally the Arkansas Surgical Black. I don't own other real finishing stones, and these are what i learned on. So I think I've pretty much figured these stones out.
"Dance with the one who brung ya".

 

I love the smooth Finish that A.J.'s 15K Welsh Slate puts on and edge . I find that some Sheffield blades can not handle a Surgical Black edge .

Shave #17 on the Filly 14 edge longevity test, still shaving great - stropping only. Cream was Floris 89 lathered with a Tulip 3 2-band, topped with a little Thayer’s Rose Petal and later, a little Floris 89 EdT. Very nice combination on a cool, damp Sunday morning.

Cheers, Steve

 

Nice looking razor!
