I don't know if this fits as a ''shave of the day'' thing but I did a touch up job just now using the R3 side plate on my Rockwell 6C razor. Now it's much smoother and cleaner than it was when I tested out the razor yesterday

Brush: Thater boar brush

Your Boar looks to be breaking in nicely Mark. Appears to have some split ends. How is it performing for you?

It is Thater the Soap Destroyer for me. Monster lather and chews through soaps

Lots of ‘waste’ lather but I can live with that at the moment
