Preshave: Proraso Green Preshave
Brush: Semogue C3 Galahad Horse 🐎
Razor: Koraat Spaarschweinchen (loan)
Lather: Le Père Lucien Narcisse
Post Shave: Mennen Skin Bracer

* Post Shave: Nivea After Shave Balm
A very late shave, and probably as a consequence, a bit rough. I’m not too sure of my judgment, but I found the piggy a bit rougher on the upper lip against the grain than the Parker. To be determined in better circumstances.

Have a good night!

Interesting! If you confirm this, that’s a good reason for me to look into getting a Shapton 12k. I’ll keep an eye out for your comparisons

  Not sure that this had anything to do with my honing: the Parker is lighter and hollower - and yesterday, I was tired when shaving.
  
  But let that not be in the way of acquiring a Shapton 12k!

    That should influence smoothness. My Wade and Butcher and Friodur wedges are beautifully smooth
