  • Brush: AP Shave Co Lemondrop 28mm SynBad

  • Razor: River Razor 14 8/8" Full Hollow

  • Lather: Eufros - Vetiver de Haiti - Soap

  • Toner: Thayers - Cucumber - Toner

  • Aftershave: Eufros - Vetiver de Haiti - Aftershave Balm

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


I enjoyed yesterday's shave with Eufros Rosa Oud so much that I thought I would celebrate Teufrosday with Vetiver de Haiti. Again, the lather and scent were top notch.

I was rushed today, but the River Razor still left me with a great shave. From speaking with him, I know that Boris (at River Razors) is much more interested in making a razor that performs as well (or better) than the best razors made. He takes great care with his choice of steel and of grind. They are spot-on for the razor that I have. This razor takes a terrific edge.
