Got a mint or NOS Dorko for the tribe - my first nude lady scales

custom super silvertip ivory (Matt)
Tabac ss
vintage Clydesdale strop
5/8 hollow Dorko
Trumper's alum
Trumper's CSF

DM Personal Jesus on repeat

Did a little work on the Dorko to pass HHT but it just wasn't ready = an unpleasant shave. I decided to tough it out

Observation: the linen on this strop, which I cleaned so that there is no wax left and it's quite soft and grabby, seemed to bring up the edge somewhat better than the other linen that I drenched with wax to make pretty hard and glossy

Cheers
Ivo
