    • Prep: Splash of hot water
    • Brush: Moar Boar!
    • Razor: Weck Sextoblade
    • Blade: Kismet
    • Lather: ZM The Watchman (sample from J33p)
    • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger Splash
    • Post Shave: Proraso Sensitive Balm

    In all this was a pretty good shave. I spent a bunch more soap, and time making lather than in previous shaves and ended up with a much thicker lather. I’m also getting better with the Weck, as this is the second time I’ve done both a North to South, and South to North shave with it, and remained nick free.

    • Prep: Splashing hot water
    • Brush: SHD badger
    • Razor: Stirling (DE3P2S) with the OpenComb plate
    • Blade: Gillette Nacet
    • Lather: Proraso Sensitive shaving cream (tube)
    • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger

    What can I say, this was a simple evening (00:10 am) shave. The Stirling has more blade feel than any other safety razor I own, but I wouldn’t call it extreme. It’s my travel razor, and since I’m going to be traveling next week I thought I’d take it for a spin and make sure I’m all good.
