Soap Stirling Hipster
Brush Yaqi 24mm Clear Handle Synthetic
Razor J. R. Torrey 5/8
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Stirling Margaritas in the Arctic Splash
Another awesome soap! The scent is very nice with a creamy and slick lather...typical Stirling quality!
Another enjoyable shave with this razor...really liking the edge and performance...sharp yet smooth. 3passes for mixed dfs/ccs/sas results. I've finally understood why many don't do as many passes with the SR as there's really not much to shave the next day...I realized SR shave results lasted much longer compared to my DE or SE, even if it's only a DFS. Aftershaves were terrific today.

Proraso Red shaving cream
Haircut & Shave P075-SB Mixed Metal Black/Triad Pineapple Brass
Polsilver Super Iridium (4)
English Leather aftershave (vintage)

Shaving with this razor head is like driving a parcel delivery truck, but it gets me where I want to go. I don't know that it is underrated because I didn't look for posts about it, but I am always a little surprised, for some reason, at how good the lather of the Proraso cream is.

Great photo. Coincidentally, last evening, I enjoyed a Jefferson's and Mexican Coke, myself.
Thank you Jeff - I love the razor but yes - that little window is tiny for my old eyes 😂 - I need to have the lights in the room to adjust - if I keep it at a 3 - it is the “same” shave as a Tatara Masamune with the Nodache cap with is neutral blade exposure.
