    June 21, 2023 Black WatchDay

    • Brush: Wald Stratos Goldvein 29mm A1 Fan
    • Razor: C.V. Heljestrand MK 31 11/16 Celluloid Full Hollow (Straight Shave 258)
    • Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Black Watch - Soap
    • Post Shave: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner
    • Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Black Watch - Aftershave
    • Fragrance: Spearhead Shaving Company - Seaforth! Black Watch - Eau de Toilette

    3 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

    I told myself I was going to cool it on 3-pass shaves for a while, but Black Watch, Highland base, perfect (by accident) hydration, and a (hastily) refreshed edge could not be denied. Too luxurious to stop. I imagine that Black Watch will be a good candidate for Austere August for many. I’ll be using SV 70th Anniversary but, if I weren’t, I think a month of the Black Watch goodness would be my choice.
