    Ogallala makes great soap and Bayrum splashes like you mentioned. They are reasonably priced to boot.

    Razor: Gem 1912 open comb version- MFG 1912-15, lower mid range, well built. excellent razor, this is the model that started GEM into a larger company A.S.R corporation and they sold millions of the 1912 in different variants of razors & handles over decades.
    Blade: Gem Personna SS PTFE(1) excellent blade, very sharp, great longevity, smoothes out nicely, predictable.
    Soap: Cyril R Salter Indian sandal wood- nice scent, excellent lather qualities, good post shave feel.
    Brush: Yaqi 26mm red Zebra handle, excellent lather generator, heavenly cloud like soft tips, gentle scrub, excellent lather painter.
    Pre shave: Brush wash whole face with CeraVe hand bar cleanser + a dollop of clear Aloe Vera gel on the cleaned beard area.
    Prep: Cold water rinse after each pass of 2 + picups. WTG + ATG + pickups.
    Post shave: Witch hazel + Ogallala Bay rum + Sandal wood + a dollop of Nivea balm.
