Pre: Musgo Real Lime Oil soap, Myrsol Antesol and Emulsion
Brush: DR Harris Best Badger H3
Soap: Crown King Rustler's Ridge
Razor: Feather AS-D2
Blade: Vintage Gillette Platinum Plus (2)
Post: Myrsol Antesol; TSW After Balm
A/S: Crown King Rustler's Ridge

First post for a while due to a wee accident that resulted in 3 broken ribs. On the mend now.
First use of the Crown King Rustler's Ridge after a recommendation from @shavetheman. Very impressed with the soap. It is veg, and it would seem relies on Kokum Butter as a key ingredient. The lather was very rich and long-lasting, and had good glide and slickness. I really like the scent - they are aiming at a prickly pear desert vibe, and pull it off really well. Same goes for the matching after shave.
3 pass shave - very close and comfortable. A couple of tiny weepers on the neck.
Also gave Con's After Balm a run. Very nice - subtle almond scent, and great face feel.
 
Razor: Weber Polished Head on Bulldog Handle
Blade: Vintage NOS English Wilkie (4)
Brush: Vintage butterscotch Simpson H2 boar
Soap/Cream: Shaver Heaven Spiced Mahogany (unobtanium)
Aftershave: Stirling Soap Co - Stirling Gentlemen

Well after yesterday's announcement I had to make this morning's shave dedicated to @Anthony.

The Spiced Mahogany is wonderful - while I was late to the Shaven Heaven party I'm glad I got there in the end.

I don't have any of your balms mate but figured this was the next best thing as you are a stirling g....

The future awaits!
