I'll be on the road soon, and as a result I'll fall back to the bare bones shaving for a couple of days.
Monday April 3rd: Harris Arlington shaving cream without a brush and a multi-blade Noxzema Kai disposable razor.
The results are quite acceptable.

Still on the road and the DR Harris Arlington cream is almost gone. Smells nice and performs just as well with or without a brush.

Re: SOTD April 3 - April 9, 2023
Here's a rather special razor—it's my best shaver. It hones up to being extremely sharp, has all the silent shave of a quarter hollow, and is 17/16" wide. For all I know, it might be the only O1 tool steel Zowada out there! Honduran rosewood scales and a mammoth ivory wedge. Refreshed on translucent and black Arkansas stones under running water, stropped on a Kanayama 80000, and used with a Simpson Beaufort and some ancient Cyril Salter Essential Lime cream. The shave finished off with Coral Skin Food and Penhaligon's English Fern. Bliss!
