    Gillette Super Speed (NDC) Razor
    Face-T-Guard Face Guard Blade
    Semogue Excelsior Boar Brush
    Proraso Green Soap
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Aqua Velva After Shave

    Decided to try out a blade that I got from a lot purchase a while ago, a Face Guard blade made by ASR. Both edges have an extra metal comb-like piece added, presumably to keep the razor edge off the face. While shaving, there really wasn't any blade feel to talk about, it was non-existence. It felt like shaving without a blade, but man it was really good. I think this would be a great blade for a DE beginner, as in some places I purposely pressed the razor against my face and no problems. I actually tried to get a weeper, nope, didn't work. Did my usual two passes with a little touch up for an excellent BBS shave.
