Schick adjustable/Schick non German blade
Sabrooney finest 1/2
Erasmic cream
Lucky Tiger Tonic

I'm trying to compare the Schick blades to the Pella blades. One Schick shave isn't enough for a comparison, but I do feel like the Schick blade has a certain something better than the Pella. Which is kind of sad, considering they're a dying breed.

Monday:

Gillette Fatboy w/new Treet Blue Special blade (corked).
Bic Metal for upper lip
Plisson black badger #10
Honeybee Spa Sandalwood soap
QED Rose hydrosol
D.R Harris Pink a/s

T&H Spanish Leather edt (sample)

First time using the Treet blades. At first, they seemed to be pulling but still taking care of business. This was a 2 pass shave (1 wtg, 1ATG) followed by some small touch up.
Overall, a nice shave but am not overly impressed with the blades...will use the same blade again tomorrow but I don't see this one lasting too long.

Have a great day.

’58 Gillette Super Speed
Derby blade
Vulfix Mayfair brush
Mama Bear’s Unscented shaving cream
Taylor’s Bay Rum after shave lotion

I ask myself: Why did I buy an unscented shave cream? Answer: I have no idea! But, it won’t happen again. The Mama Bear’s unscented cream shaved well, but without a scent, it is an unfulfilling shaving experience.
