I took my normal morning shower, I lather my face with the shave stick while washing with normal bar soap. Hot rinse, dry off except my face, go to sink and lather up with the C&E shave cream.
3 pass, extremely sharp but comfortable blade. I think this is as sharp or almost as sharp as a Feather. A really clean, smooth shave.
I think it is on a par with the Astra Superior. This is only one shave so far, and I will see how it goes further on.

I will report back.

Result: 4.0/5.0 Lousy shave. I don't mean blood or irritation lousy. I mean the blade made the shave very very tough to pull off and what made it worse was I was short on time so I had to limit it to two passes. Reminded me of a bad cartridge shave.

Result: 4.6/5.0 Still had the Treet in there and tried again. Nope. Pulled the blade and replaced it with a 7AM I had in the kit. Much better. The 7AM agreed with the 3 piece Gillette Razor. Thinner head so under nose shaving is easier. I'm happy now. Toss the Treet blade, it's not playing nice. Had to add Olbas Oil o the AS. The mintiness is gone.

Result: 4.4/5.0 Tabac Day and it was good. The Tech is mild so it's not going to get as close as the Feather ACD-N but it was pretty close to BBS. Face is still smooth but I can feel where it's going to come in faster than usual. For some reason, the smell of Tabac right now is making me want to smoke a pipe. A Cavendish type of aroma.

I was actually pleasantly impressed with the soap. It is similar to Mama Bears and QED. It lathers well and gives good cushion to the shave. The scent of this soap is pleasant and subtle.

[Baloosh]

I don't think Gio would ever admit it, but I believe after the initial round of feedback and corresponding fallout over at TOP a long while back, he actually did take the comments and complaints to the drawing table and re-spin his series of soaps.

I agree that they perform VERY much like the best of the glycerin-based soaps.

Almost time to pack up a few items to take home for a couple of weeks. Mama Bear's soaps are definitely better than her creams. This one I used today seemed to be one of the better soaps too. Tough to say sometimes. There are some Mama Bear product consistency issues I come across once in a while. Not as good as the TSD, QED, TGQ soaps IMHO. The scents a definite plus.
