Razor: Colonial General V1 Black Aluminum with Timeless Aluminum handle
Blade: Kai Protouch
Pre Shave: Warm Shower and Crown Pre Shave
Soap: B&M Reserve Cool
Brush: Simpson Trafalgar T2
Post Shave: Cold water rinse, Nivea Sensitive Post Shave Balm and TOBS Sandalwood AS

Excellent shave, BBS two pass shave. No nicks or weepers.
 
3rd shave in a row with my Gem 1912 / Gem stainless (unsure if it's coated).

Very happy with the result this morning, despite my shave being a quick 2 passer without touchups to give my face a break. I'd love to see how long this blade will last. That's the goal.

Feel as though this blade could go on a bit, but really need to try out a Feather Pro to see if it is any better, somehow doubt it.
