Gillette New
Gillette Super Platinum (3rd, final and never again!)
Semogue 1305
MWF
Trumper lime skinfood
I think the only reason I didn't cut myself to ribbons again was due to the excellence of the New. These blades do not work for me at all so will be added to the PIF stack!

Gillette Super Adjustable on 6, 4, 2 with Rapira Super Stainless
Professor Blighty's Grapewood soap
Henk walnut silvertip brush
Professor Blighty's Universal Shaving Balm - cedarwood and clarysage
Excellent shave. I normally get more burn when going for a very close shave but not today. The grapewood soap is excellent for cushioning. The super adjustable is a plastic base plate, plastic handle model on loan from our very own Father Ted and shaves very well. Tried the all metal version before and struggled with these long handles but the weight balance on this one is better and the handle length somehow seems less of an issue now.

After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:
vintage Marshall Fields badger
ABC-Stahly/Schick Plus Platinum(NOS)
TGQ Leatherneck SS used as a stick
Wilkinson AS lotion
Creed 'Aventus' EdT
Very nice shave using this frankenrazor/blade set up. This particular blade rivals any of my other favorites.........very sharp and quite smooth and forgiving. Good match with the mild Stahly head.
BBS results,

Monday:
Merkur Slant 37c
Perma-sharp super
Semogue 1460
Nanny's Cedarwood & Vetyver hard soap
The Semogue isn't as satisfying to use as my Vulfix boar. Maybe some more breaking in is required. The rest of today's kit performed splendidly as always.
