A wonderfully smooth shave with the Weber ARC/Gillette Silver Blue (2nd use), and the Maggard's - Tobacco & Leather was faultless, but then again, it is made by Through the Fire Fine Craft, another soap that I have stellar results with...

Parker Variant razor
Rainbow/Gillette Silver Blue blade
Jayaruh #85 brush
CO Bigelow SC
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Skin Bracer A/S w/added menthol

Started with the Rainbow blade in the Parker but the first stroke told me to change the blade so I grabbed a GSB and proceeded to have a wonderful Monday shave. I also find it amazing that the CO Bigelow SC never, ever fails to give a great lather and help in any combo I try. I could use it exclusively but I'm not. To many other nice products to try. Anyway, I'm ready to go do the "honey-do" list. Now go enjoy your day folks.
