Kent BK4
DRH Marlborough
40s Super Speed (the others are beginning to feel unloved)
Gillette 7 O'Clock Yellow fresh from the wrapper

Just another great shave. This could be my desert island gear. assuming warm running water. I'll likely transition to Speick cream as the ambient temperature increases. Krampert's Finest Bay Rum to finish.

Today, after a long time a lathered in a bowl instead on my face. The leather appeared much more foamy and didn't have the slickness I get when I facelather. It seems to me that face-lather works way much better than lathering in a bowl. Sometimes I like palm lathering with soaps like MWF and Tabac.

Your skin gives you much better feedback than your eyes and metal! ;-)
