Antica Barberia Mondial boar
Homemade soap from a friend
Rockwell 6S Plate 4
Gillette Platinum blade
Thayer's Superhazel

Reacquired the 6S. I wanted something durable, American-made, and versatile. Mission accomplished. First shave today on plate 4 was extremely close and comfortable. All other DEs will probably be jettisoned. I find I am able to make most any tool work perfectly when it's my only option.
Regards,
Tim
