SOTD Friday, June 4

prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk Original Formula bar soap
razor - Henson AL13/Mild (second use)
blade - Astra SP (3)
brush - Fendrihan Classic Pure Grey Badger
soap - Italian Barber's Amici
post - warm water rinse, DSA “Pure & Natural” alum, cold water rinse
aftershave - I.B. Amici
music - CBC Listen's "Chill Out" playlist

Holy smokes. Here it is 10 hours after the shave and my face feels pretty much the same (BBS) as it did 9 hours ago.
That Henson is a rather impressive performer, but it's missing something. It doesn't seem to have the soul (for lack of a better word) of a vintage razor, or even of a modern one like an Edwin Jagger DE87 or a Razorock SLOC. 
Maybe it's the colour (Rocket Red) PLUS the mass (light) PLUS the trapezoidal cross-section of the head.
I'm sure I'll get over it.
