After trying those 3 I went back to the USA made Pro-shave. I found it did a better job as a pre-shave as far as glide and blade feel go. With the others I got a tiny bit of burn when used after the shave. With Pro I did not. I used a 5-shave-old GSB blade and my face felt like it wasn't ever touched. $5.35 for 8 oz from Amazon.
