    I've had it on my list to learn about the intricacies of Iwasaki - the brand and the person. I really need to get on that! :)
    Beautiful razor :happy088:

    This particular razor was made by Iwasaki himself, I left everything original on it. It is definitely one of my favorites. Of course, I think all my razors are my favorite after I have fantastic shave!

    Cold Water Wash
    Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Jayaruh #217 Synthetic
    Gold Dollar 7/8
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #217 Synthetic brush. I did two passes with the Gold Dollar 7/8 Straight Razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
