Perfect shave, for the weekend

SOTD 13 Sept 2014

A totally perfect shave. My G.B. Kent BK4 made the usual perfect lather from D.R. Harris—I hope they never reformulate that soap. It’s just wonderful.

Three passes with the Above the Tie R1, which turns out to be the perfect baseplate for me, better than the M1, better than the R2, much better than the H1. It holds a newish Astra Superior Platinum and using it was a pleasure. BBS over much of my beard after the second pass—but I did a third pass for perfection.

A good splash of the Arlington aftershave, and the weekend gets underway.

This sort of perfect BBS result only holds for a few hours, of course, before roughness starts subtly to appear—but then the best meal you ever had in your life lasted only a few hours before tendrils of hunger started to emerge as well. Experience is by nature transitory (as is life). Those who seek permanence outside the grave are bound to be disappointed.
