  • Brush: Rad Dinosaur Creations "Stardust" - TurnNShave 26mm Shoat
  • Razor: Koraat Moarteen (15/16", full hollow, square point, r/wetshaving exclusive) (14)
  • Lather: Whole Hog - 3.0 Unscented - Soap
  • Post Shave: Stetson - Cooling Moisture - Aftershave
  • Post Shave: Oleo & Co. - Facial Toner - Toner
  • Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz - SIR Irisch Moos - EdT

Final shave with the Whole Hog soap tester. Overall it's a really nice soap base. Took as much water as I wanted to give it with great slickness. My only real complaint is the lack of scent!

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing where u/hugbckt goes with this stuff.

Close two pass shave with a couple nicks on my chin from rushing. This is my 50th shave with a straight razor, and I'm finally starting to feel like I sort of know what I'm doing.
