Saturday 15th August...

Continued with the Sedef today. This is a much more aggressive shavette and you do have to watch out for the toe and heel of the blade more with it but it's more concentration than anything. The blade was a Lord Platinum #2. It gave an extremely close shave with some parts not requiring ATG.

Wanted to use this brush as it's another undervalued and underused boar. Did well but still needs much more breaking in like the Semogue 2000. Today's soap was the lovely smelling Speick.

Enjoy your weekend...
