This morning I used tabac with my GC .84 to shave my neck and trim up my beard (growing a beard till the 1st of the year.) as always tabac delivered!

Still going great. Using Tabac shave soap every day.
Cycle in the aftershave and cologne at least once or twice a week.

New (to me) brush today. What better way to initiate it than with Tabac?

Another wonderful shave thanks to Tabac! Rich, slick, protective and smells great as a bonus.

Just getting caught up on the thread and saw that razor. What a beauty. I need to get me one of those. [emoji2]

Thank you. It's a "For Barber's Use" model. Looked for quite a while until I found one in my price range. But that then meant it "needed a little work" ... So again, thank you for the compliment on the results.

I really like the scales and pins. Such a classic yet elegant look. The blade speaks for itself

Tabactober shave #10
Merkur 41C + Gillette SharpEdge (1)
Face lathered with SOC and Tabac Original. 3 passes + touch ups to DFS+. I failed to load the SOC with enough Tabac so ran out of lather. Finished the shave with VDH Shave Butter. Hopefully this small infraction will not disqualify the shave. The resulting shave was smooth and very pleasant.
