Mühle STF 23mm v2
Tim's Citrus-Vetiver
Jagger Barley razor
Personna Lab day 4
Thayer's a/s splash

This is my favorite soap scent. The shaves are always good, but today the scent was working so well and my technique was just a bit more dialed in. Best shave I've had in some time, perhaps ever. Take a bit of extra time now and then, gents. Even a few seconds on each pass to be a touch more cautious and precise makes a world of difference.
Regards,
Tim

Thursday AM 10-23-2014

Georgetown Pottery G20 scuttle
Rooney 3/3 Ebony Finest (26mm/67mm)
Trumper's Coconut Oil shaving soap (vintage)
iKon DLC OC/UFO Titan Fine XL
Schick Plus Platinum (1)
Taylor of Old Bond Street Shaving Shop aftershave

The Titan Fine XL seems to make the iKon smoother and more efficient for me, especially with the great Schick blade.
