Scent from Heaven "Issey Miyake"-style shaving soap
Progress on 2.5, 1.5, 1 with Filomatic SuperChromo
Proraso pre/post cream

Never tried this blade before. The Progress on 2.5 was a bit too high really but I didn't know what to expect. Sharp and close but a bit of irritation. Another use in the Fatboy will probably give me a better idea and clues as to how long these blades last but I reckon it's a very good one.
 
Pre shave - Mike's Peppermint+Rosemary
Razor - Muhle '11 R41
Blade - Astra S/P
Brush - The 'Duke'
Soap - Mike's Unscented
Cold Rinse/ Witch Hazel/ RazoRock A/S Wax
