1914 Ever-Ready SE razor
GEM Blue Star SE blade (4th use)
Olivewood handle badger brush made for me by Mike Perry
Prairie Creations Pre-Shave Oil
Barrister & Mann Rhapsody shaving soap
Wal-Mart witch hazel
Simpsons Aftershave Balm
Cussons Imperial Leather Silk Talc
Pashana Original After Shave splash

The combination of the brush Mike made me, along with the B&M Rhapsody shaving soap, is a fantastic combination.  Together, they make great protective lather.

The 1914 Ever-Ready razor is one of several 100+ year old SEs that I have and the shaves that I get from them are great.

Tabacstag!
Tabac just works every time, especially when I make überlather with the cream and soap. The Colonel is seemingly made for harder soaps, it surrounded my face in luxury, my stubble unaware of its fate. The Fatboy set on nine for the first two passes and seven for the last did its job without effort or drama. Sherlock finished up this shave right with a welcome cool and leathery dry down.  I used up the last of the Kiehl's facial fuel wash. It's a great product, but a bit too pricey for me.

Fine Fougére 
I seem to like this combo more each time I use it. The Colonel made short work of the bloomed soap, and the Fatboy did the rest without drama. Even the Tonique felt and smelled better this time for some reason. All in all an excellent shave.
