Very smooth shave but not irritation free, I'm liking the Formula K it has really nice scent and a long lasting menthol hit.

Hot Towel
Wickham's Spice Trade
Kent Infinity Silvertex
Waterhouse Kamisori
Hot Rinse, Cold Rinse & Alum Wash
Imperial Leather Aftershave

Bowl Lathered
Two Pass - WTG & XTG/ATG

Wickham's soap was lovely! Great lather, easily built, easily spoiled, but I know the drill ... slow and steady, then hit it with some water at the end. Two very cushioned passes. Nice.

Again, the blade played out well. I was more confident and nicked myself. Slow down, lad.
