TabOKtoberfest eve shave

  • Brush: Dogclaration LG 2022 Mystery Brush (B16)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 89½ (4/8″ hollow ground, stainless steel)
  • Lather: Vitos – Super Extra Coco
  • Post Shave: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original balm

The smallest razor with the largest sample (> 100g) of soap for the last day of SampleStraightember. This block of Vitos makes surprisingly great lather. The small Frio feels always a bit scrapy compared to the calmer, bigger blades, but gives great shaves nonetheless.

TabOKtoberfest (Tabac, Offene Klinge (open blade), October) starts tomorrow, I'm pumped.
