Ever-Ready 1924 Single Edge w/Matador S2 handle
Gem Stainless Steel PTFE single edge blade (4)
The Grooming Co. Synthetic brush
Arko
Osage Rub

First shave ever with Arco - Great thick slick lather, and the scent is actually much more pungent (lemon Pledge?) when sniffing the puck than when building a lather in the lather bowl.

I don't normally use Osage Rub in the middle of March, but it's 88 degrees here in San Diego today!
