Fifteenth excellent shave on a straight that has not been stropped. I'm in uncharted waters. With straights that I strop after every shave, I know I can get about 30 shaves before a refresh, but I generally do an edge refresh after about 10 shaves.

I have no idea what's going on with this setup.

What's better - your Friodur or @sgrdddy's nacet? We deserve to know!

Really different projects. Nobody but @sgrdddy will suffer 5 passes for a workplace acceptable shave for 575+ shaves. Str8_Razor and I are getting the same performance from Frio 14s that haven’t been stropped in 15 shaves.

AA24 - Day 15 - Vareflora

Passiflora didn't work as well with Varen as I would have liked. It's still a great Summer scent though.

I'm starting to get a little worried that this blade won't make it to the end of the month.

Decent shave, but now I'm starting to remember why BIC never really made it to the top of my list. Lots of aftershave burn on this one, but at least the shave was nice and close.

Day 15/31 of Looking for Serenity in Austerity

  • Brush: Semogue Owner's Club (cherry wood and boar) (15)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 50 (7/8", hollow ground, stainless steel, masonic deco) (13)
  • Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Roman Spice
  • Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Roman Spice

I shaved early this morning, but didn't get a chance to post until now.

I've gone practically nose-blind to Roman Spice. Bummer.

Good shave, otherwise!
