Homemade frankincense & myrrh preshave oil
Somerset Simpson Polo 14 Manchurian brush
TOBS Mr. Taylor's shaving cream
Feather AS razor
Gillette 7 O'Clock Yellow (2)

The Polo is really just too big to use easily and comfortably, but it lathers beautifully and feels great on my face.

Thursday morning:

Hot towel face prep
Vitos SIS
$.50 chinese boar
Gillette black handle SS
Vintage Gillette "The Spoiler"
Bay Rum

The blade sure does feel good, but in the Tech and this razor it just takes too much work to get a BBS with this blade. I no longer have the patience since I have far more aggresssive razors that give me a BBS in 2 passes. I quit after having achieved a DFS.
