2 Full passes WTG & ATG today with some buffing, i have found not to go for a full 3rd pass with the GC-OC and i am left with a comfortable finish..
The Tabac products are quickly becoming a favourite, it all just works. The Alpha Ti working really well.
I am BBS with a Soft & Comfortable face feeling, smelling, well, very Tabac
The downer of today is i have cracked my Giles Lather Bowl -
Have a great day All

About 3 months ago I picked up a Rocca in a trade and it is a nice razor, but it had a distinct smile in the blade, which for me made it a little rough, hats of to Muhle I contacted them and despite the fact I am not the original owner they offered straight away to send me a replacement razor head, only trouble was they were out of stock. Anyway it finally arrived and they even shipped it to Ireland for me. (Ikon and Razorock could learn a lot from them about standing behind your product). The new head is a better design than the original and I really enjoyed the razor today, looking forward to getting to know it this week more.
The other debut for me today was the lovely Cadman Brush that I bought on the here , what a wonderful brush ! thank you @kamisori
