Same way without the pre-shave stuff. Love my DE razor, will never ever go back to a multi-blade battery powered new razor. Never had better shaves.

In the shower.

Schick Quatro

Aveeno lotion or the generic drugstore brand. It's been years since I have used anything like shaving cream/gel and would never go back. The lotion works ten times better.

I have the Merkur Classic as well.
Nivea or Prorazo cream (I have some Body Shop stuff to try too)
Low end badger brush
Nutrogena Aftershave balm.

Cheap Braun electric. Since I have a Fred Flintstone beard I have to shave before I shower then splash on some lotion when I get out and shave again. I still end up with 5 o'clock shadow by about 11AM. If I try to use a blade it just gets hung up in my stubble and rips me up. I get no lovin' unless my face is smooth so I guess it's all worth it.

Mach 3 (I received in the mail on my 18th birthday...that and a post card from Playboy...the joys of turning 18 here) with shaving cream in the shower.

Gillette Fusion, fresh out of the shower, with hot water. I shave 2-3 times per week (don't mind a little stubble), blades seem to last forever. Can't remember the last time I changed the blade actually.
