Back to the familiar travel kit:

Gillette nickel Tech w/ Israeli No-name
Vulfix 2234S

Lush, rich lather today: I usually make on-the-face lathers too dry, but with patience, achieved a milestone today.

Pre-Shave: T&H preshave oil
Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Israeli
Brush: Pure Badger
Cream: T&H Ultimate

An "Ultimate" morning, with very good results. I was generous with the cream, so the lather was fantastic. It's been awhile since I have used this line, and I still enjoy it.

Progress/Israeli
Sabrooney finest 1/2
Barber Shop ancient tallow soap
Lucky Tiger Tonic

A light went off over my head the other day - the vintage Yardley soap reminded me of a soap I got ages ago, in my "buy it all, sort out the trash" Ebay phase. I broke it out, ceramic soap dish with duck motif and all, and got an excellent, slick, moist, comfortable shave. The Tomacco scent ("this tomacco smells like grandma!") is something I can forgive, based on the results.
