Woo, I think this might be the first time I ever SotD'd two shaves in a row!

  • Razor: Klas Tornblöm 11/16 (11)
  • Lather: B&M Fern
  • Brush: Muhle 23mm Synth

I like this razor quite a bit (Swedish, shoulderless, thin bevel, etcccc...) and this edge has more shaves on it than almost any of mine (I went a bit overboard in my enthusiasm to try every permutation of straight and I enjoy honing so most have less than half a dozen as I gradually try to tweak every edge in a sprawling collection). It still has a ...crispness? and cuts well but somehow winds up a tad less efficient but I'm curious how far it goes before it really drops off so I'm trying to resist refreshing it just yet. And there is a bit of detail I might dedicate a post to if I get a few.
