A perfectly built lather (bowl) using Speick cream
The truly luxurious Kent BK4
A well-performing Rapira blade on its second time out
The highly respectable '47 Gillette Aristocrat

Yet another enjoyable shave with excellent results. :D

Pinaud Bay Rum aftershave for the finishing touch. The Aqua Velva Musk just didn't stand a chance of fitting in with the rest of it. 8)

I hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday and with no "weather problems"; just finished my gardening choirs....for today.

Endymion Shave Cream...good enough for a King!
Kent three band H8 badger...don't know why more people do not have this brush?

Futur..Gold and I really like it.
Super Iridiums....enough said.

Floris Special No 127.......made for a Russian Czar in past centuries.

And, I have been using my metal Merkur shaving cup from the Futur brushed silver set. It has a rough anodized finished that seems to pop the shaving soap into a great lather
