Firefighter

  • Brush: Dogclaration LG 2022 Mystery Brush (B16)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur Unnumbered 8/8" ( hollow ground, stainless steel, round point)
  • Lather: Noble Otter Firefighter
  • Aftershave: Noble Otter Firefighter
  • Fragrance: Stirling Soap Company Island man

Summery scents on a dreary autumn morning. So good. The big 8/8 continues to astound me with how smooth it is. It feels almost like a coated blade, and I don't understand how it's possible. I'm now thinking I should try to refresh my Frio 14 blade the same way I did with this to see whether I can reproduce this edge.
