TUESDAY MORNING

Pre: Tepid rinse
Soap: Wickham English Rose
Brush: Semogue Cerba Boar
Razor: Sheffield full hollow ground 6/8 straight \ Weber ARC head, UFO Goliath handle
Blade: Gillette Superthin
Post: Akcay Tobacco cologne, IK balm
EDT: Trumpers Eucris

Had another go at honing this on Sunday (gave much more pressure on the 1K hone, and didn't stop until it could shave arm hairs).

First shave yesterday wasn't that good, but it seemed very sharp this morning after stropping. Just did a WTG and XTG pass and it seems pretty good.

Finished with a DE ATG pass for a very smooth finish.

Another excellent soap from Darron. Looks like I'll be adding to my wardrobe of software shortly.
