Kilted Tiki & Aqua Velva:

Today's shave was epic. That touch up paid off in both comfort and resulted in a true BBS shave. I still have a lot of these soaps, so until they're gone it's still going to be called Tiki Bar Tuesday. It's nothing personal, I'm just wanting to try other stuff that's out there. Today's shave also proved something else today. For the last few straight razor shaves, I didn't use my scuttle and each time I didn't the straight razor shave was much better without it than it was when you use it:


For those wondering what I did about the edges on both of my straight razors, I used a Norton 4/8K combo water stone and I did 50 round honing trips and 1 round stropping trip on the 8K side only. I've gotten to where I just about don't need a finishing stone  now when it comes to using a Norton 4/8K combo water stone.
