SE SOTD- What was your tool of choice today?

[Ted A]

Razor: Schick J - Asylum injector
Blade: Vintage Schick (2) - Schick (12)
Brush: Stirling Tuxedo
Bowl: Captain’s Choice
Lather: Cooper & French Relentless
Aftershave: Witch Hazel - Bootleggers Vanilla Bay Rum

I gave up on the vintage blade during the second pass and grabbed the Asylum. The 12th use of the Chinese Schick in the Asylum is much smoother and not nearly as harsh as the vintage Eversharp Schick. I will probably give the vintage one more chance, but I will have an alternative ready at hand.
