Ever Ready 1912
GEM SE blade (4)
Arko Commando cream
Kent BK4
Alum block
Simple for Men AS Balm
Cella Classica cologne
Never heard of this Arko cream before I saw it on the Connaught site when I was looking for the Cella. Same green hue when it comes out the tube as Palmolive Classic, with a very, very light scent (described as 'floral') but which smelled soapy with a top-note I couldn't initially place. Required very little to whip up a mountain of rich, thick, slick & cushioning lather. Really impressive stuff. It was only right at the end when I was washing the bowl out that I realised what the light scent reminded me of - a mix of soap & Pledge polish! Sounds bad, but it was very pleasant.
Cracking shave as ever with one of my dirt-cheap SE razors. With the number of shaves from a single blade so far, it's a bargain!
