Giddy up

  • Brush: Zenith 506U N (50/50 horse mane/tail)
  • Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 72½ (13/16" hollow ground, stainless steel)
  • Lather: Mäurer & Wirtz Tabac Original
  • Aftershave: Mäurer & Wirtz Tabac Original

I think I've made the adjustment to vegan Tabac. Finally. Great shave today.

This Frio 72½ took some serious abuse from its previous owner and has a wavy edge as described here, but it doesn't influence the shave one bit.

Given how many nice Frios I have in my den, I'm not sure this dinged up one is worth holding on to, but we'll see.
