Sunday

Kent BK4
Tabac soap
'47 Aristocrat
Dorco 301 (7)
Krampert's Finest Bay Rum

Time for the weekly blade change. The Dorcos work well, almost too well. One careful, overlapping pass is all I need with them.

Shave Secret preshave oil
Becker scuttle
Somerset Simpson Polo 14 Best (32/65)
Boellis Panama 1924 shaving soap (sample, thanks, Johnny)
Goodfella/UFO red bronze Goliath
Wilkinson London Bridge (2)
Dolce & Gabbana splash aftershave
freshly ground 100% Kona coffee

An excellent shave. I'll reserve judgment on the Panama soap until I've used it at least a couple more times, but my first impression is that is has a great scent and lathers really easily, but its lubricating glide for the razor is just OK.
