Razor: Filarmonica 12 Doble Temple 5/8" Full Hollow
Lather: The Cajun Blade - Contraband Bay Rum - Soap

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

This was a test shave for the freshly honed edge on this razor. The comfortable Jnat edge, and the wonderful scent of Contraband Bay Rum made for a very enjoyable shave.

Sample kill. I don't think I'll get Gingerbread Man again. It's not bad. It's one dimensional and the scent is pretty light.

Airbud is protecting me from LatherBot brutality today.

Brush: Maggard Razors - Tuxedo 24mm Synthetic
Razor: Worcester Razor Co. Straight - 6/8 Hollow (3)
Lather: Central Texas Soaps - Down at the River - Soap
Post Shave: MW - Bay Rum - Aftershave
Post Shave: Zingari Man - The Stargazer - Aftershave Serum

Decent shave! Less irritation than yesterday -- either because of my technique, the lather, or both! What am I saying, isn't it all technique?

This aftershave was sent to me by a good friend who I've converted to wetshaving. He made this Bay Rum using Rum, uh... Bay, and some other stuff. It's very smooth and honestly smells great. A lot of the Bay Rum's that I've smelled are sharp with the spiciness, and this one leans heavily into the actual Rum scent. Quite pleasing!
