  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Raven 26mm V26 Fanchurian
  • Razor: Iwasaki 13/16" Full Hollow Square Point Tamahagane
  • Lather: Haku - Cedarwood - Soap
  • Toner: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner
  • Aftershave: Haku - Cedarwood - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Haku - Cedarwood - Cologne

3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


This was my first use of Haku Cedarwood. The soap base is top-tier for straight razor shavers, and the fragrance is very nice, well-blended, light woody scent.

  • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Pencil Pushers - Soap
  • Post Shave: Summer Break Soaps - Woodshop - Aftershave

Apparently I haven't used this sample since I started logging my shaves with the SDS. Same with this brush! That's hard to believe!

Pencil Pushers is a really fantastic woody scent. Woodshop goes great with it.

I am quite surprised that you are continuing with this. I know you're not a fan of the standard soap base. Nor, am I.

I am dedicated to the kill, and to freeing space in my den – unless my wife objects too much (she really hates smoke, and she is really not a fan of the promotional text on the aftershave)

Wait .... You're in France and your wife hates smoke?! How do you get a café without encountering it?

PorkButtsNTaters666@sub.wetshaving.social · 2 pts · 4d (1 reply)

She smoked when we met - it's probably a case similar to the recovering alcoholic 🤷

gcgallant@wetshav.ing · 1 pts · 3d

My wife is the same way actually. When she gave up smoking, she could not tolerate being around it.
