Shave of the Day: Friday July 5, 2019


Razor: Hone Type 15
Blade: Personna Blue (2nd use)
Bowl: Jay’s Clay 
Brush: Maggard Synthetic 
Soap: Lakewood Soap Teakwood 
Aftershave Balm: Floïd 


Coming from the Netherlands this razor is fully machined from brass and is on the mild
end of the spectrum. It has been compared to the Feather AS-D2 in terms of efficiency. It tends to put more rough blades in check for a more smooth experience. It is an ideal daily driver or for those with sensitive skin. 

This Lakewood soap is a straight up Teakwood scent and paired quite nicely with the amber notes of the Floïd balm, although the balm is fairly light on the fragrance and could be paired with about anything. Lakewood’s tallow base has been well received by users and rightfully so. I personally recommend the annual fall sampler.
