Menthol Monday's Cold Water Shave
Cold Water Rinse
Fine Snake Bite Shave Soap
Jayaruh #446 Badger/Boar
J.A. Henckels Rapide
J.A. Henckels wedge
CWR
Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Osage Rub
This week I am using my J.A. Henckels with a newly sharpened wedge (Sharpened by Tom White). This is also the first time I have used this new brush. The Fine Snake Bite Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #446 Badger/Boar brush. I stropped the blade really good. Two passes and touch ups with the J.A. Henckels Rapide Razor and a J.A. Henckels wedge blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Dickinson's Witch Hazel and then Osage Rub. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Shaves 58-46 and 59-47. With the Bunny V2.2 and a Personna 74 loaded. At 47 shaves the Personna 74 is starting to slow down but I'm confident it will make it to 50 shaves.
