  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Gulf Short 26mm V22 Fanchurian
  • Razor: Dovo Art of Shaving 5/8 Hollow Ground Round Point
  • Razor: Geneva Cutlery 11/16 Hollow Ground Round Point
  • Lather: 345 Soaps - Undercut - Soap
  • Aftershave: 345 Soaps - Undercut - Aftershave
  • Talc: Yardley Classic

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


This shave was a test of two edges. The Geneva Cutlery razor has an edge created from a natural African whetstone (de Endi?, du Hindi?). The Dovo Art of Shaving razor has an edge that was created with a La Petite Blanche coticule.

Because it is a Formula 1 race day (Monaco Gran Prix), I followed my habit of using Undercut for soap and splash.

The edges felt great and produced a great shave!
