SOTD: October 29 thru November 4, 2012
Kent BK4
Cella soap
Merkur HD
Fresh Dorco 301 blade
Haven't used the HD in a while and the chrome finish was a nice contrast to today's impenetrably cloudy skies here in NE Illinois. The forced-air heating is slowing removing the indoor humidity and so I went with the Cella, which always delivers a slick, protective lather and has never dried out my skin.
An excellent two pass shave called for Krampert's Finest Bay Rum.
Products from five countries today.
