Birthday April 20th
Razor: New to me Superspeed
Blade: Voskhod
Soap: Proraso Sensitive
Brush: Semogue Boar
A/S: Fine American Blend

I had my first shave with a vintage Gillette and have to say im floored by the performance. I got a 3 pass with touch up BBS. I have a bad habit of applying pressure rather than letting the razor do the work. The superspeed appears mild enough to use a bit of pressure with no irritation.
