Gillette Slim Adjustable (on 3) Astra blade (my first shave with one of these) Proraso Pre My Time Bath & Body Orange E/O shave cream Dad's old Rubberset badger brush Muhle shave bowl Floid Vigoroso aftershave The MTB&B scent was equal to peeling a fresh orange. Very nice. Haven't used Dad's old brush much - it worked well, and would be a keeper anyhow. Not sure if it's the Astra or if my technique has outgrown the #3 setting on the Slim but I could have used slightly more aggression. 3 passes plus lots of touch up resulted in a Damn Fine Shave with no nicks or irritation. Was tempted to try the Caswell-Massey Number 6 cologne, but the Floid barbershop scent is so pleasant I didn't want to replace it.

Napa Soap Company old style soap Semogue 1305 boar Canadian Tech Treet black beauty, only minor rust Aqua Velva Nivea AS balm The old style white containers of the Napa Soap company soap were wonderful; the new stainless ones are not usable, too narrow to lather properly with. They appear to sell the old style soap at the Nashville knife company, link here (I am not affiliated with any shave anything) It comes with a cheap Kent boar, much like all Kent boar; useful, not impressive. The Canadian made Tech seemed to allow the carbon steel Treet to dry far better than a TTO would, and it had almost no rust on it today (I forgot to dry it off yesterday) The 1305 continues to evolve; moving closer to the Vulfix style of boar and further from the Omega type of boar.
