Merkur 33c three piece razor
ASCO super stainless blade
Van der Hagen deluxe badger brush
Arko hydrating shaving soap
Care One witch hazel
Brut aftershave

Hot shower prep with Old Spice extra clean soap

The Arko does a fairly luxurious face lather. Two nimble passes with the Merkur and I'm rewarded with a near BBS shave. Brut to finish.

Personal note: I'll be stepping back from posting as much. My little brother is entering the final stages of hospice care. I thank you for your patience at this time.

Sorry to hear that Ron. Please take whatever time you need. We'll be here, thinking of you.
