  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Custom 28mm SHD
  • Razor: Henckels 34 7/8
  • Edge: 30k Ha No Kuromaku
  • Lather: Summer Break Soaps - Prom King - Soap
  • Post Shave: Summer Break Soaps - Prom King - Aftershave

This refreshed 30k is batting 1000 as far as feel and efficiency go. Will be taking it to the scope again this weekend, and will throw another razor through the progression to rule out the steel issue. As much as I like natural edges, this is quickly becoming my benchmark.

Wishing it were Friday... ๐Ÿ˜ซ
