SOTN: K!tty @ppr0ved!!!
First time trying the OneBlade in my AutoStrop. Wow! What a close shave it was. DFS in 1 pass. Had a bit of feedback from the alum but that was to be expected. My fault and not the razor or blade. Overall an excellent shave. This blade in an Auto Strop is a great match.
Razor: Valet Auto Strop A2
Blade: OneBlade (Thanks Bob!)
Pre-Shave: PAA Cube
Shave Soap: Proraso Wood and Spice
Cologne: Proraso Wood and Spice
Brush: Opus Brushes “King Fordite”
Lather Bowl/Scuttle/Mug: Georgetown Pottery G5

PolSilver Super Iridium Blade

The Palmolive Classic Shave Cream lathered well with Roger Quintero's 3d Printed SlimGem Silvertip Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Henson Clone Razor and the PolSilver Super Iridium Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Mennen Skin Bracer After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
