The Sunday is usually a reason for me to bring out one of my more luxurious soaps with the accompanying aftershave and eau de toilette.
So for example Acqua di Parma, Penhaligon's etc.

Brush and soap:
Shavemac Silvertip D01 2 band bulb 24 mm x 50 mm Jungle Moss and TOBS (Taylor of Old Bond Street) Jermyn Street Sensitive:
The Shavemac Silvertip D01 2 band bulb 24 mm x 50 mm Jungle Moss with TOBS (Taylor of Old Bond Street) Jermyn Street Sensitive delivers classy foam. However, for me the Jermyn is not a top soap, actually cream, that is particularly flavorful. Technically good, but otherwise I have much better. The bottom is clearly visible and that's a good thing.
Blade and razor:
The Astra Superior Platinium for the 4th time used.
The Astra Superior Platinium stays sharp and according to the statistics is halfway to me. The effective combination Mühle R41 (2013) / Astra Superior Platinium does require some attention, so that it doesn't become cheese slicing, but then I'm also razor smooth. Nice result again.
Result: BBS.
Finally: Inside the citrus line finished with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Mennen Baume Energisant and Loris E-048 Cool Water. Ready for the next too beautiful spring day.

It's free friday so it's mandatory to freely choose peoducts you like to use.

So my shave was:

Prep
M-keramiek scuttle
Omega barber style boar brush
Speick shaving stick
Friedrich Herder 25
Vdh alum
Dickinsons witch hazel
Proraso green, Wilkinson hydro

After I got the herder I sanded it down to 400 grit and then I honed it. In the future I will get it out it's scales and sand the tang as well and polish it. For now it shaves fine.
