Cold shower?!?
 
Long time between posts but good to see many more straight razor shaves as SOTD.
Razor: Wonderful blade from Procerpine razors QLD.
Soap: Still really pleased with Derby stick.
Post shave: Isopropyl Alcohol slash. Highlights technique extremely well :)
This is an old image but the razor is still as beautiful.
