Titan ACRO T.H.64 finished and maintained on diamond pasted balsa. This shave and the rest for this week will be with Wholly Kaw "Washington's Blend" special edition soap. Previously I have not had a lot of success with this soap so I am going to work on it to see if I can get to improve.

12 April
Fridays are normally the day I shave my nostrils and inside my ears. This is done with my Gold Dollar W59 off diamond pasted balsa. Everything was going well so I decided to continue on with this razor and shave the rest of my face.

​

I am starting to get this Wholly Kaw "Washington's Blend" soap to work with straight razor shaving. I found that this soap needs more work when face lathering. It lacks as much residual slickness as I normally get from most of my other soaps but it still works quite well.
