  • Prep: Splashing hot water
  • Brush: SHD badger
  • Razor: Stirling (DE3P2S) with the OpenComb plate
  • Blade: Gillette Nacet
  • Lather: Proraso Sensitive shaving cream (tube)
  • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger

What can I say, this was a simple evening (00:10 am) shave. The Stirling has more blade feel than any other safety razor I own, but I wouldn't call it extreme. It's my travel razor, and since I'm going to be traveling next week I thought I'd take it for a spin and make sure I'm all good.
