Blade: Proline #1
Razor: Schick Injector
Brush: Maseto 30mm Silvertip
Soap: Wholly Kaw Almond
Post: Alum & Thayers Witch Hazel
EDT: L'Occitaine Cade
The jury is still open as far as I am concerned with the first time use of this razor. The light plastic handle did not help my case. I also want to try it again with more concentration on the angle required. An aggressive little madam that I am sure can bite but I am blemish free today.
Light irritation to my neck from the Alum and the final outcome was certainly not the best shave I have ever had. DFS overall from a 3 pass shave.
Brush is not shedding as much but still lost a few hairs and the soap felt a little sticky on the face between passes.
Again I need to dial it in better for my next use.
Finished off with the Cade that matched quite well with the soap.
Enjoy your shaves!
Thank you kind sir.Clever picture
Cheers - will contact on back-channel.If you're still not convinced I can send you a couple of samples of SV? Give me a shout if your interested? I don't have Cosmo though.

The ATT R2 (on loan from @Blackmass - cheers Rob), really is a mean machine, the whiskers don't stand a chance. Got the alum block out to check and a wee bit tingly around the chin but as I get more acquainted with the R2, I'm hopeful that'll improve.
@Digimonkey, this almost broke the Petrometer, an unbelievable 99.97 Petrifs. That's as smooth as the quartz, being polished continuously, by the cascading waters of the Angel Falls.
Those 74's just keep keeping on, eh @semperfi45 ? You've got to try one to believe it .Razor: Gillette Red Tip
Blade: Personna Tungsten (16)
Brush: El Druida Red Heart Chakte Kok/African Blackwood 2 Band
Soap: Nuavia Blu
A/S: Floid Blue
Scuttle: Tanakaska
Don't want to ramble on about another great shave so I just say DFS.
