    Thank you Bill! It took me awhile to find an almost new Tech with the original box.

    TESC Pre-Shave Oil
    Old Spice Lime SC
    Jayaruh #47 Synthetic
    GEM 1912
    CVS brand SE
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    Pinaud Clubman

    A note on these blades. They are the CVS brand blade. I believe they are the carbon steel Personna/GEM blade. I have been doing a belly strop with them this week. After rinsing the blade, I do eight strops on each side across my A-shirt covered belly. This completes the drying process to keep the blade from rusting.

    The Old Spice Lime Shaving Cream face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #47 synthetic brush. Two passes with my GEM 1912 razor and a CVS SE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Pinaud Clubman After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Thanks - it was a great shave. The Merkur MII handle is really great to use - feels great and retains a lot of heat after having soaked it in warm water.
    Nice, close shave.

    I believe yours is the same resin/color combo but a slightly different top half?

    I had a great shave this evening, the bargain basement Rise AS my wife brought home today is actually quite pleasant, mild and very moisturizing.

    I think I saw Chris's brush in a previous photo, and that color stuck in my head. Mine has shipped! Can't wait!:scared011:
