It’s the biz, Russ. I notice the concerns about the recent reformulation. I’ve just ordered a refill (not for panic buying; I am low). It’s been asked before, but amid all this negativity, has anyone actually tried the new formulation; or is it just assumed that the lack of tallow will automatically make it shite?Friday Shave
Preshave: Argan Oil Soap
Soap: Tabac New Vegan Formula

First time I used Tabac and have to say it was excellent , still thinking about the scent as can't decide if I liked that or not.
This was the new Formula Stephen and my view of it was it was excellent , Nice Rich Lather , Very Slick, With plenty of Cushion , Scent I am on the fence with , post shave was maybe not among the very best but for a mid range soap extremely good.It’s the biz, Russ.

Good to know, Russ; many thanks.This was the new Formula Stephen and my view of it was it was excellent , Nice Rich Lather , Very Slick, With plenty of Cushion , Scent I am on the fence with , post shave was maybe not among the very best but for a mid range soap extremely good.
Super! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. I think you said you'd not used a Tech before. Those late ones, while light, certainly (still) do a good job. Every other (ealier) Tech is heavier and better made ... and a nicer experience altogether. Maybe a rabbit hole to drop into?Friday 6th August
Soap • Razorock Puros

Razor • 70's Gillete Tech/Bulldog handle
Blade • Willy's (1)

Everything besides the aftershave and scent was from a very generous PIF, thanks again Paul @pjgh
The Tech razor was so smooth, I really couldn't feel the new to me blade, which did a fine job too
Vitos Tobacco Aftershave complemented Puros Tobacco Leaf soap quite nicely.
Well that's bloody done it for sure !!Super! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. I think you said you'd not used a Tech before. Those late ones, while light, certainly (still) do a good job.

Get a US made pre-war, you'll throw all your other razors away! Unless you have a Single Ring or a New Improved,... you'll want to hang on to those.Well that's bloody done it for sure !!
..... but not all you'll wantYep, just get a Tech. It's all the razor you'll need.
