Friday morning shave, F.W. Söderén Eskilstuna Sweden .
FW stands for Frans Walfrid, the company started 1871 and closed 1955. One of the best manufacturers in Eskilstuna and many people thought that they made “to good quality”. Rewarded at exhibitions: Philadelphia 1876, Eskilstuna 1878, Copenhagen 1888 and Helsinki 1903. They made pocket knives, straight razors, scissors and surgical instruments.

Friday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Archaic Alchemy Eureka Shaving Soap
Jayaruh #478
Cobra Classic
Feather Artist Club
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Nivea Shave Balm

The Archaic Alchemy Eureka Shaving Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #478 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Cobra Classic razor and the Feather Artist Club Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Nivea Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
