Share your Shave of the Day for Saturday!
Quintidi 5 Pluviôse an 234 de la Révolution, jour de Taureau
- Brush: Zenith 506U XS Horse 🐎
- Razor: Man-Hoshi 24 (2)
- Lather: Southern Witchcraft Valley of Ashes
- Postshave: Naissance 702 Witch Hazel
- Postshave: TFS Witch Hazel & Oak
- Postshave: Nivea After Shave Balm
Good shave with Valley of Ashes. The asymetrical grind of the Man-Hoshi is something I still need to get used to (and it will probably never be a favorite), but it provided me with a close and comfortable shave.
Have a good day!

Welp, 3 shaves is all I need to know that it’s time to bring this razor back to the drawing board. I’ll need to do some more work on the spine to get it flat and have a real apex, I guess.
Fortunately there is a lot that I like about this razor, so hopefully in the end my work will pay off.
