Smoooooooooth Wedgeday

  • Brush: Dogclaration LG 2022 Mystery Brush (B16)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 72-V (13/16", quarter hollow or near wedge, stainless steel)
  • Lather: D.R. Harris Arlington
  • Aftershave: Acqua di Parma Colonia
  • Fragrance: Farina 1709

I honed my 72-V (Ze "V" stands for "vedge") yesterday evening for today's Wedgeday shave, and it's butter smooth. A real silent joy to use.

Very classic, cologney software today. Light citrus all around.

I honed my 72-V

One of the great things about straight razors. If you don't like the edge, just change it. No need to hunt for the perfect DE blade.

💯

I love the agency that comes with a hone.
