Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Polsilver Super Iridium
Brush: Vie-Long Butterscotch Beehive (Silvertip)
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Soap: Boots Shave Stick (Thank you Teiste)
Scuttle: Bill Bowl
A/S: Mr. Taylor
When Teiste visited my shop in July, he brought me a Boots shave stick because he had heard I was curious about it. I had misplaced the shave stick but uncovered it yesterday when I had an arrival of additional office furniture.
The shave stick performed as intended but was unspectacular. My itch has been scratched though and I really appreciate Teiste's thoughtfulness in bringing me this stick.

Homemade frankincense & myrrh preshave oil
Georgetown G4 scuttle
Somerset Simpson Keyhole 1 Best (19/43)
Mitchell's Wool Fat shaving soap
Feather AS
Personna 74 (6)
Acqua di Gio splash aftershave
A truly great shave for college football day. The MWF was on its best behavior, lathering easily, and the P74 continued to cut smoothly.
