Quickie prep
Honeybee Chamomile Shea soap
Little Cutie brush (ivory + Finest)
Vintage Russia Shell Select strop
Testing several vintage razors: Case wedge, a Helje, and the famous HF from PJM
Bamboo AS splash
Bad shave  Some of the razors I was testing weren't where I want them and I got a couple of nicks. The last one was great, but at this time I already had 2 nicks which was so frustrating I decided to cut it short with one pass only. 
This soap is so gentle on the skin and easy to lather - I find I reach for it pretty often lately
Cheers
