Pre-shave soap: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Razor: Jaggerooney
Blade: Rapira Swedish Supersteel
Brush: Simpson Emperor 2 Two Band
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
A/S: Dickinson's Witch Hazel, TOBS Mr. Taylor Splash

It's the second day in a row with MWF. I've decided to stick with the MWF for this whole week and, so far, am enjoying my decision. The shave this morning was excellent and the lanolin goodness has left my face feeling great.

Good morning. Monday:

Jaggerooney w/Dorco 301, #1
SR 3120
Speick stick*
Thayer's Lavender witch hazel
Harris Pink
Trumper's Ajaccio Violet

*I find that I prefer the lather I get when I use this as a stick than when I grate the soap into a puck. Can't say why, but I just do.
Best,
Chris

Monday AM:

VAS model C SE razor
GEM SS ptfe blade (7th shave and canned)

Handmade badger brush from a friend in Alabama

The lather was useable, but not up the usual standards. I needed to load the brush a bit more, but I'm still learning this brush.
