RazVite (Rockwell cap)/Feather (1). Love these razors. Fairly mild setting bit still a no problem, comfortable BBS shave. The Rockwell cap changes blade angle in a less aggressive position (and enables use of the nice Rockwell handle).

Post shave feel with MDC is not spectacular but I'm finding use of one of those Japanese charcoal soaps (like the PAA cube) applied before lather really does improve things.

Hamlin Feinste ⅝" razor. The steel is hard, probably 60+ HRC
eShave shave cream which has a very pleasant fragrance and feel
The waxy boulder that looks like a piece of brain is jade.  One surface is cut and refined for polishing the edge.  The hardness of the jade makes it more effective than silica for the hard steel of this blade. I use shaving soap for a lubricant on the surface.
