I have seen this set described as the "Sportsman" i am not sure though.
It always delivers a really close, comfortable shave. Today was no exception.
I Hope you all had a great day.
That's not a Gillette.

Yaqi FCOC, Suneko (4) on setting 4.
Yaqi Sagrada Familia 22mm synthetic, Arko soap (grated fine, then compressed into a tub), Gillette Refreshing Breeze AS.
Face lathering with the little Yaqi brush is easy, and a small amount of Arko goes a long way with this very frugal brush. I had a fantastic shave after 2 passes plus a bit of buffing, giving an almost but not quite BBS.

Goodline TTO razor
Goodline stainless steel is
Van der Hagen deluxe badger brush
Van der Hagen deluxe shaving soap
Gillette aftershave gel
Stetson spray cologne

Hot shower prep with Old Spice Swagger body wash

The Van der Hagen soap performs so well I can almost whip it up on autopilot. Three lathered passes and BBS is secured. I've even conquered the tricky areas along my jaw line. Gillette to calm and Stetson for the spicy fall finish.

Now I have an evening to contemplate and a briar of Smoker's Pride Vanilla Cavendish to savor. Happy hump day!
