I decided I would remove the seal from my tub of tabac and join the Tabac Tuesday club. It's been sat in my drawer since May. I've been considering Tabac for ten years, never purchased it, just incase I didn't like the scent. However, one of my sisters ex boyfriends always wore Tabac, I remember liking it. I was convinced to buy not after seeing one of @chard52142 pictures with his mr whippy lather from Tabac. That was back in March. First use for me. It lathered really well. So well, that I think the TOBS soap I'd been struggling with may be down to the soap and not the user. I had lather everywhere, I looked like a rabid dog and still couldn't replicate chard's mr whippy picture. I could've added more water, but it was just dropping off the brush. I'll try this soap next week with my preferred badger brush. A nice comfortable shave with two and half passes.

I only used mine for a week after I got it.....was having problems with razor burn. This time I am riding the cap more and of course the Treet Classic Carbon blades are exceptionally smooth and very sharp. A great combination!They certainly punch well above their weight Brian, i really like using mine. Ticked all the boxes for a half DE blade razor.
I used the Dura Sharp blades in the past and recently bought some Classics (their replacement) for a ridiculously cheap price (£7.99 for 200 delivered). I have been using them in my 1/2 blade razors including shavettes and have found them to be superb!The Treet Dura Sharp paired together with the R41 resulted in a BBS 2 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report.
The dura sharp blades are surprisingly good for what they cost. I've only used them on the odd occasion. I intend to get reacquainted with the 'black carbon' in my next week SOTD'S.I used the Dura Sharp blades in the past and recently bought some Classics (their replacement) for a ridiculously cheap price (£7.99 for 200 delivered).
