Something different for me today:
Se7en 3/8 Straight (PIFd by Fizog - Fabulous gesture...)
37c Slant
Rapira Swedish SS [3]
Ingrams Bowl Lathered
FS Silvertip
Arko Ice Minst ASB
Diesel OTB EDT

Honed the Se7ev straight over the weekend and decided to have a go. So done both cheeks, but I'll really need to get a strop as it just wasn't quite there for an easy shave. But no nick and it done the job.
Finished everywhere else the 37c, which is a pleasure as usual.

(Now I think I need a bigger razor instead of the baby 3/8 and a strop and maybe even a 12k hone - I'm saving a fortune now I've dumped the carts :icon_rolleyes: )
