Pre: Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
Brush: Semogue 1470
Lather: Van Der Hagen Select Shave Soap
Load/Lather Bowl: HC&C shave bowl (straight walled)
Razor Head: Yaqi Romulus, no shims

Blade: Feather Pro Super (D4.5+)
Blade: Kai Captain Blade (D2)
Post: Stirling witch hazel, PAA Mysterium Serum
I started the shave with the Pro Super blade since I saw many people like that blade with this razor but the blade was not smooth for my face and I swapped to the Kai Captain after shaving half my face. The Kai Captain was much smoother to my face. It was a pretty good shave.
