Vintage 1890 Wade and Butcher Straight Razor and Two Lathers

Finding pleasure in the shaving ritual:

Preshave: Hot water
First lather: Arko
Second lather: CM 1752 Almond
Brush: Rubberset 1000 Pure Badger
Razor: Vintage Wade and Butcher, 1890's
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel
Moisturizer: Nivea
AfterShave: Pinaud's Clubman
EDT: Vintage Le Dandy




Gave the heavy Wade and Butcher 50 strokes on a leather strop. Used two different lathers today. Arko, lathered on the face for the first wtg pass. Then the creme for the second xtg pass and touchups. Going with two different lathers made a nice change of pace.
