A very nostalgic shave today! I used my made of Zamac Merkur Progress which was the first DE razor I owned. I learned to shave with it. It is always like seeing an old friend. The shaving with my closest to empty well used soap, Low Scent Skeletor. My Brush today was a Mühle with the synthetic Silver Tip Fiber knot. These knots cost well over $20.

Todays Challenge: I usually have a thick and dry lather, but today is Water Day so I drowned my soap with water. https://imgur.com/a/JW9QVhc

I was glad to have an adjustable razor and dialed it down, thinking I would not have enough cushion because of how thin the lather was, but the A&E was still slick and had just enough cushion on my first pass. For the second pass I wasn't as lucky and my styptic pencil got a work out. Still having fun! Different blade, razor, brush, soap brand and aftershave still going.
