  • Brush: Wald Stratos Haunter 29mm A1

  • Razor: J. A. Henckels 50 4/8 Half Hollow

  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Indigo - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Lavender - Toner

  • Aftershave: House of Mammoth - Indigo - Splash

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


This shave was a test of the edge on this razor. I honed it earlier today. Results were excellent. I think the razor's sharpness might suit me more than most people, so I softened it slightly right after the shave.
