Razor: Merkur Long Handled Progress
Blade: Gillette Super Thin
Brush:Vie-Long LE Beehive Natural Horse
Soap: D.R. Harris Lavender

Ach Brito Glyce preshave soap
Dirty Bird 1.5 scuttle
Rooney Faux Horn 3/2 Finest (24/54)
Penhaligon's Endymion shaving cream
Feather AS
Wilkinson Sword (cryogenically tempered) (8)
Creed Green Irish Tweed aftershave balm
An excellent shave. This 3/2 is another great Finest. Its backbone may be slightly less firm than the others, but it still feels wonderful. The Sword blade is starting to drag some; it still cuts well, but there is resistance, and it definitely has lost its smooth slide on this eighth use.
Here is the Rooney.

iKon Open Comb Bulldog (No.17)
Super Iridium Blade
D.R. Harris Pink Aftershave Splash

This was the last shave out of a pot of GFT Violet I purchase from QED in 2008. It will be interesting to discover if the new pot purchased in February of 2012 is as good!

I haven't shaved since last Sunday, and having just come home from holiday I didn't want to whip out the 'Wheatfield', so 'Mama Chub' and the Marlborough laid down the base for a super smooth, super clean shave with the Weber. Damn I feel great
