Razor: 1972 Super Speed
Blade: Nacet
Brush: Chisel & Hound
Soap: Glastonbury
Frag: Van Cleef & Arpels Moonlight Patchouli
Smooth shave. First time using Glastonbury and Nacet. Now I see why @gpjoe recommended it to me and also why so many love the Nacet blade.

Thanks, I found that on Etsy from a seller that from what I can tell does not sell razors normally and I grabbed it for 10 bucks with shipping. I was shocked at how great of condition it was in. It looked good in the pictures but they did not do it justice. It’s my Birth year razor and I could not be happier. Also thanks for the soap recommendation it pares so well with one of my favorite fragrances.Nice razor.
I just happened to find a very nice Y2 (1978) at an antique shop yesterday. The black-handle SS fills one of the many holes in my collection.
I have never used Williams nor Colgate. This puck of Burma Shave is from the 80's or 90's I believe. It's adequate lather, no scent. It came with a bunch of other stuff in a brush lot from EBay. I would not seek out another one.A very rare shave with Burma-Shave. First time I've seen a shave with this posted. Curious, have you used Williams Shaving Soap and if so how does the Burma-Shave puck compare?
