Grade A shave. I like the T Coconut soap a lot. It gets a better lather than the Sandalwood for me.

Razor: Wilkinson Sticky
Blade: Gillette Super Platinum (Dark Blue)
Brush: Simpson Ehsan
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Soap: AOS Sandalwood
A/S: Alt Innsbruck

The Valobra soaps are excellent and AOS Sandalwood (made by Valobra) is a real treat. The Ehsan ginned up some 1st rate lather -slick, rich and cushioning while the Sticky paired with a Dark Blue 7 O'Clock blade made quick work of my stubble. I enjoyed a BBS shave followed by a refreshing splash of Alt Innsbruck. Very nice!
