Gillette Old Style head on Star handle/Perma-Sharp Blade/Burma Shave soap/Omega Mighty Midget Brush/Polar Ice AS/Tet-a-Tet Russian ASB​

The Handle from the Star adds the heft that I've found old style's to lack. The Burma shave soap gives a great tallow lather with a very soapy smell. It's a worthy addition to a vintage OS mug. Too bad production of the soap was stopped over 5 years ago. The lather explodes like Arko, smells like williams, but is slick like MWF. A heavenly soap by my standards. The shave was so good, I broke down and used the Tet-a-Tet ASB which I ration and only use on special occasions. As I'm not sure if I'll be able to find another vendor that carries it since Britivia closed. All in all a remarkable shave to start the day.

Great shaves today, Gentlemen
