Friday morning:
Mikes Natural Soap, Mint & Rosemary
Simpson Special pure badger
Schick adj set to 6 (a travelin' razor)
Chinese Schick (3)
KF menthol
I just can't bring myself to follow Mikes Mint with anything other than menthol.
A very nice shave. But I want to try the razor on "8" before cleaning it and sending it on it's way. The blade is still quite good.

Georgetown G4 scuttle
Homemade frankincense & myrrh preshave oil
Somerset Simpson Keyhole 2 Best brush
Queen Charlotte Briar soft soap
Schick M1 Adjustable razor
Personna PTFE blade (1)
Floid Blue aftershave
A great shave. I set the Schick on 5, and it was perfect. BBS with no irritation or nicks at all. And the Floid Blue, from a sample, was quite good, light and fresh.

Razor: Cobra Classic
Blade: Feather Professional
Brush: Vie-Long Beehive (Silvertip)
Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Cream: Italian Palmolive with Menthol

A fantastic menthol shave this morning. The Italiam Palmolive cream remains a favorite and the Cobra/Feather professional combo left me smooth faced. A splash of Alt Innsbruck and I feel great.
