  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Raven 26mm V26 Fanchurian
  • Razor: Dovo Art of Shaving 5/8 Hollow Ground Round Point
  • Lather: Declaration Grooming - Cerberus - Soap
  • Post Shave: Noble Otter - Cerberus - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Thayers - Coconut - Toner
  • Fragrance: Declaration Grooming - Cerberus - Eau de Parfum

3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


For today's theme, this soap contains bison tallow in its Milksteak base.

For today's challenge, I chose to do a 3-pass trifecta shave in reverse order. My progression for today was:

  • Fragrance
  • Aftershave
  • Toner
  • Third pass (lathering, then using my third pass pattern)
  • Second pass (lathering, then using my second pass pattern)
  • First pass (lathering, then using my first pass pattern)
  • Pre-shave - my normal "peoples' preshave" method; working proto-lather into the face with water

I will say that this was, by far, the best shave I've had ... today.
