  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Raven 26mm V26 Fanchurian
  • Razor: Iwasaki 13/16" Full Hollow Square Point Tamahagane
  • Lather: Haku - Cedarwood - Soap
  • Toner: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner
  • Aftershave: Haku - Cedarwood - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Haku - Cedarwood - Cologne

3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


This was my first use of Haku Cedarwood. The soap base is top-tier for straight razor shavers, and the fragrance is very nice, well-blended, light woody scent.

    I am quite surprised that you are continuing with this. I know you're not a fan of the standard soap base. Nor, am I.

    I am dedicated to the kill, and to freeing space in my den – unless my wife objects too much (she really hates smoke, and she is really not a fan of the promotional text on the aftershave)

    Wait .... You're in France and your wife hates smoke?! How do you get a café without encountering it?

    • Brush: AP Shave Co. - 2Bed 24mm Synthetic
    • Razor: Joseph Rogers & Sons - 11/16 Near Wedge (6)
    • Lather: Barrister and Mann - Pencil Pushers - Soap
    • Post Shave: Summer Break Soaps - Woodshop - Aftershave
    • Fragrance: Summer Break Soaps - Woodshop - EdP

    Apparently I haven't used this sample since I started logging my shaves with the SDS. Same with this brush! That's hard to believe!

    Pencil Pushers is a really fantastic woody scent. Woodshop goes great with it.
