Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Treet Dura Sharp
Brush: Lee Sabini in Finest
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Soap: D.R. Harris Almond Shave Stick
A/S: Proraso ASB
Since last week's scare with Super Iridiums perhaps ceasing production, I decided to start looking for a replacement blade...just in case. I used the Treet Dura Sharp for today's shave and was very impressed. It was extremely sharp and smooth...two qualities I look for in a blade. The 3rd quality I seek, durability, has yet to be determined. Since it is a carbon blade, I do not expect Iridium like durability which is ok, considering the price.

D.R. Harris Pink aftershave
Great shave. I'm starting to get used to the EJ razor, which is more mild but also more luxurious in the hand than my Merkur if that makes any sense. I enjoy shaving with it and it seems like it requires less effort on my part to get an irritation free shave.
