Semogue Excelsior 1305 Boar
Superior Lather Catcher
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Clubman Pinaud After Shave

The ARKO Shaving Cream lathered well with the Semogue Excelsior 1305 Boar brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Superior Lather Catcher Razor and a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Clubman Pinaud After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
