Razor: Gillette Super Speed
Blade: Vintage NOS Aussie Spoiler (1)

The Super Speed performed beautifully with a blade from the same period - wonderful shave.

Soap/Cream: Klar Seifen shaving soap
Razor: TSW Bren Handle with replated Gillette NEW head
Blade: Polsilver 'Brown' (3)

The gel was purchased for me by my wife in San Francisco when she was there on a trip a few years back. Seemed appropriate to use on our anniversary, 31 years today.

Pre-shave: Hot shower
Brush: RazoRock Plisson
Soap: Geo. F. Trumper's 'Spanish Leather'
Razor: E. M. Dickinson ‘Invicta’
Strop: DCBlades Roo/Cotton
Touch up: RazoRock Lupo SS 95 / Nacet
Post-shave: Osma Alum block, Pinaud Club Rum, Armaf ‘Club de Nuit’

The Invicta is a nice little shaver, I've managed to put a good Coticule edge on it after cleaning it up a little. The touch up DE razor is getting little use these days, but the chin is still the challenge.

Shameless reuse of photo as I have the same kit as yesterday (why waste pixels!).

Bit of skipping not gliding today, not sure if it was the lather or the 7 day blade, or both.
