Razor: Concord DE
Blade: Gillette 7 O'clock Sharp Edge (Yellow Pack)
Prep: Bald Frog Eucalyptus Balm
Brush: Vie-Long 12705
Soap: Bald Frog Arabian Hooka
A/S: Joop Homme
Result: A great shave
This was the first time I've used this brush (besides cleaning and break-in) and I really like it. Not floppy in the least, but very soft on my face. It lathers the Bald Frog soap easily. I also see why Obie and others recommend this blade. This was the best shave I've gotten from a DE.
