Razor: Kai style shavette- MFG 2018> well built zamic, seems to handle well, good razor to try AC razors IMO.
Blade: Kai Protouch- Excellent blade, sharp & smooth and with the guard a little more protection. Good blade to learn with.
Soap: Colonel Conk Bayrum, great mild bayrum scent, great lather qualities, good post shave feel.
Brush: Razorock Plissoft 24mm synthetic, great lather generator, cloud like soft tips, great scrub, good lather painter.
Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 3 with pickups. WTG +2 ATG + pickups.
Post shave: Fine fresh Vetiver with witch hazel + a dollop of Nivea balm.
Results: CCS,DFS,BBS + minor irritation + no weepers = :a17: Excellent shave with my Kai style shavette and Kai Protouch.

Razor - Paradigm Diamondback
Blade - Astra SP
Brush - Grizzly Bay "Snow Stars" 26mm Quartermoon
Soap - The Holy Black Mr. Hyde
A/S - The Holy Black Gunpowder & Spice

The Astra has performed the best in the razor so far. Definitely the smoothest one. The brush felt amazing creating a nice creamy lather, and the scents were well suited to this morning.
