The Third Day Of Weckoning is upon us

  • Brush: Rubberset 400-3 with a 26 mm unbleached Zenith boar knot at 56 mm loft
  • Razor: Weck Sextoblade Med Prep
  • Blade: Kismet Rostfrei, Polymer beschichtet (9)
  • Lather: Barrister and Mann – Oceana
  • Post Shave: Ralon – Original
  • Fragrance: Stirling Soap Co. – Island Man

I just figured out that I tended to load to much these last days. I always struggled hydrating the first one or two passes enough, and it's because I had underestimated how efficiently this hard knot (it's got the strongest backbone of all my brushes, because of the very tight Will Ferrule) picks up the Soft Heart base. Stellar shave today, and I've dialed the soap in now, I think.

I also really enjoy summerly Oceana, followed by the almost literal slap in the face that is Ralon, and Island Man. Let the Austere Coasting begin.
