Soap – Prohibition Style: Capone's Bayrum
Post - Cold water rinse / Witch Hazel / Wholly Kaw: Cuero Oscuro Aftershave Toner

Well, 1st use of the Capone's Bayrum, and it did not disappoint.. It provided a wonderfully hydrated, and protective lather, that formed the base of what was an impeccable shave with ‘The Rock’/Personna Platinum combo.. BOOM!

RazoRock Wunderbar Slant
Iridium Super
C&S Oxford&Cambridge
RazoRock Barber Handle Plissoft
Geo F. Trumper's Spanish Leather Cologne

My first shave with the Wunderbar and I could not be more pleased.  This is the first DE razor that I have used (and I have tried and own many others) that matches the close shave that I receive from my Weber razors.  No matter how you choose to describe a great result this one fantastic with no stubble detectable after the shave. A truly close comfortable shave. This is not my first slant razor but it is could easily be my last based on the performance.  BTW the RR Plissoft brush was a great addition to the den.

Go Green!
A tough test today for the Spartans. Hanging in there so far. This was an outstanding shave. The Cube made it seem like a cold morning in a cedar cabin. The lather was amazingly good. T+S is top shelf.
