-- Sunday, April 12--
Prep: Face wash with bath soap and water
Razor: Frankenrazor made with Hallmark top plate, FaTip base plate and Ikon Bulldog handle
Blade: Personna Super Lab (2)
Brush: LoveYourShave Katalox wood handle with TGN two band finest
Soap: Mike's Natural Soaps Rose & Cedarwood
Bowl: Fine
Post: Thai Crystal deodorant alum stick and Thayers's witch hazel
Result: BBS in 3+ passes. What a great shave! The brush I just made is amazing. This knot is perfect. Very good backbone and the softest tips I have seen in a long time. The shape of the knot stays together during lathering. It just feels like a firm, but sift ball traveling the skin. Mike's soaps do not hurt it at all, in fact this knot ripped through this soap and loaded in 20 seconds.

Kamisori Honke Nobu, 5/8
Shaving with a kamisori is always fascinating. Not only for the fact this type of razor gives a deep and close shave, but also for the fact it represents an ancient and distant culture, a different way of thinking about shaving and razor. A simple look with a classic handle, this Honke Nobu is just perfect.
