Prep:: Head & Face wash
Brush: AP Shave Co. 30 mm Tuxedo Fan knot w/ Black & Clear handle
Razor: HNDRX Razor
Razor: Leaf Thorn
Blade: Derby Premium
Lather: Barrister and Mann - The Full Measure of Man
Post Shave: OAM - Dolce Vita ASB

1 pass on both head and the face (around the circle beard) - good shave overall.

Did this shave before yet another nightly workout, this time lower body/legs. Shave went well, training also. Can't really go wrong with FMoM, it's one of my most beloved soaps. Today's razor combo was good, the Hendrix is a nice head shaver while the Thorn took care of the face and beard lineup. After only shaving with a foil shaver on Tuesday, this was a way better experience.

My "staycation" is slowly coming to an end, but at least the week has been productive so far. Went on a short hiking trip on Tuesday, got some house cleaning done, got some new furniture for my kitchen assembled. Also got myself two new games on Steam that I greatly enjoy so far - might post more details in the FTF thread if I don't forget. ✌🏻
