Wee Scot, Asses’ Milk shaving soap, and the Feather AS-D1

The pre-Vulfix Simpson Wee Scot made a great lather from this shaving soap The Wife brought me from one of her Paris trips.

I was lucky enough to get one of the Feather AS-D1 razors that works well. Others were not so lucky, and Feather dropped the AS-D1 in favor of a redesign, the AS-D2, about which I’ve heard no complaints. My AS-D1 shaved just like my AS-D2, and today did a fine job, though with a little blade-buffing required. I’m changing the blade.

A splash of Phoenix Artisan’s Cavendish, and I’m ready for the end of the week.
