  • Brush: Zenith r/Wetshaving 31mm x 57mm Moar Boar
  • Razor: Koraat 7/8" Near Wedge Spanish Point (Straight Shave 257)
  • Lather: Mäurer and Wirtz - Tabac - Soap
  • Post Shave: Thayers - Rose - Toner
  • Post Shave: Mäurer & Wirtz - Tabac - Aftershave
  • Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz - Tabac - Eau de Toilette

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

Today's shave was excellent more for the experience than for closeness. I purposely dialed in a mild shave because these 3-pass shaves I've been doing need more than 24 hours for my beard to properly fill in. This pushes my shaving time from early morning to mid-afternoon. So, I needed to get back on track.

Nonetheless, this razor has that feeling of inevitability -- it will cut -- and the perfection of the Tabac Trifecta cannot be denied.
