several days' stubble
Plisson HMW 12 horn
prep lather - Trumper's Violet ss
lukewarm towel 
shave lather: Tabac ss
Vintage Russia Shell Select
RW custom
JASON 6-in-1
2 passes, decent shave. Bad prep=1st pass pulled  I really have to step up my prep, there's no other way around it. Second pass was as smooth as they get. A moment of inattention resulted in a small line - vistually no blood, but the cut can be seen if looked at carefully
Lately I have been staying away from *fancy* AS and ASBs. Mostly using the JASON, which I like a lot - for now. It's dirt-cheap and / but seems to work great, and is not perfumy at all - which is a nice change
Cheers
