Razor: Merkur Progress XL
Blade: Supermax Stainless
Brush: Grosvenor LE
Soap: Penhaligon's Blenheim Bouquet
A/S: Dickinson's Witch Hazel, Speick ASB
An excellent Sunday shave this morning! I've found the Supermax to be a nice blade for me, although not quite as smooth as the Treet Durasharp, especially in the chin area on the first pass. Nevertheless, the shave (3+ passes) turned out to be BBS.
