Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Bunny  B-400 Brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Unmentionable Live Blade Razor with an Unmentionable Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
Did you know that the first Stahly patent was for a perfectly mentionable razor?

I did not know that. I'd love to have one of those, but I don't think I could get a Gem to work in it.

Pre      -  Shower
Brush  -  Vintage Vulfix service #3 1950's
Soap   -  Vintage GIBBS 1950's
Razor  -  Rolls Razor - Aluminium
Blade  -  Rolls 1952
Post    -  Cold water Rinse, TC's infused Witch Hazel
Balm   -  Tonyschin's Cedarwood and Patchouli Argan Oil and Balm
A/S     -  Vintage Ferd. Mülhens Vintage 4711 EDC

Not the best shave i have had with a Rolls, the Blade was fine during the WTG, although when i proceeded with the XTG/ATG mix pass i felt the blade became "prickly" and it was tugging quite a bit on the tougher chin stubble, i ended up with a very acceptable finish although it was not a smooth comfortable shave.
Everything else performed brilliantly, a really nice lather mixed in the Captain choice Copper heavyweight and there was next to no indication from the splash even though i was expecting something more.
On checking the blade under the loupe it looks fine? i will have to re - hone it and set a new bevel then go from there - when i get a bit time.
Anyway,
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.
