Pre - Shower
Brush - Simpson Chubby 2 Best Badger
Soap - 1912 Classic 24
Razor - 6/8 Goedecke & Co, Mandarin - "unrivalled extra hollow ground"
Blade - Tony'schin
Post - Cold water Rinse
Balm - Tonyschin's Cedarwood & Patchouli Balm
A/S - Barbour "2016" EDT
Another bright, fruity scent from the Wickhams Classic 24 sadly now discontinued, whipped up on the chin with the CH2 in best, i am really liking this brush.
I completed my 2 pass shave routine with some touch up here and there for a close, comfortable, BBS finish. The alum rub gave no indication at all.
A very nice post shave to finish off a very nice bit of sink time.
All ready to take Mrs. TC out for a spot of lunch.
Enjoy your day all.

Super Sunday VS. SOTD

Razorock GC76 with Wizamet Super Iridium.
Razorock GC84 with Wizamet Super Iridium.
Simpson T3 brush.
Razorock Barbershop soap.
Williams Aqua Velva splash.
Arko Nem coconut cream.
This was an extremely close comparison shave between two excellent razors, both of which provided an excellent shave.
It's so close between them. If it wasn't for the numbers on the baseplate, I don't think you'd realise which you were using. The GC76 may have had to do an extra buff on one spot on my neck, but other than that, it's a great all-around result.
In my opinion, both are an excellent daily option, but if you find the GC84 a bit much, then the GC76 would suit better.
A quick word on the blade. Although I found the Wizamet to be an excellent choice and smooth to use, I'd highly recommend using a Russian Blue Astra, and I'm sure there are others just as good, it's just what I'm using at present. As usual, YMMV.
Happy Shaving
