Brush and soap:
Plisson Fibre and TDS Cosmetics "Cream: evergreen juniper":
Once again, a last remnant of soap in the Mühle bowl.With the Plisson Fibre this TDS Cosmetics "Cream: evergreen juniper" has been foamed up and a nice fragrant firm foam beaten. Some worn scent, so woody finish set ready. For a moment I didn't know which TDS it was and thought I smelled sandalwood.... In hindsight it turns out I didn't, more juniper, well I hadn't taken that out blindly.
Knife and razor:
The Sputnik Vintage 1987 used for the 2nd time.
The Sputnik Vintage 1987 is a relief again. How comfortable and deep this razor shaves. The Ikon Shavecraft 101 shows the Sputnik Vintage 1987 to full advantage with its choice between OC and SB, so mirror smooth skull and ewe smooth neck and cheeks. Absolutely good weather.
Result: BBS.
Finally: as said, Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Tütün, Proraso Wood and Spice ASB en Provence et Nature Santal Absolu for the care and fragrance.

I owned a Muhle Rocca V3 but this new V4 shaves a lot more comfortable IMHO

Brush and soap:
LiJüN silvertip 3 band and TDS Cosmetics "Cream: evergreen juniper":
With the LiJüN silvertip 3 band the last remaining TDS Cosmetics "Cream: evergreen juniper" finished. Another nice bowl of foam to shave with, but that was it for this soap. Nice to know it, but it won't get into my rotation any further.
Blade and razor:
The Sputnik Vintage 1987 used for the 3rd time.
The Sputnik Vintage 1987 delivers another great shave. Beautifully sharp and comfortable. In the smooth RazoRock Game Changer 0.84-P, the Sputnik Vintage 1987 comes well in the spotlight. Nothing to complain about. Smooth in 3 rounds.
Result: BBS.
Finally: fresh and earthy well cared with Eyüp Sabri Tuncer Kolonya Klasik Limon, Arko Nem Avokado ASB and Loris E-003 Acqua Di Gio. Sunday turn on Monday morning.

The parts of Game Changer and DSCosmetic appear to be interchangeable.
The scallopped cap does not cause differences in shaving, but it looks much better (IMHO) ... ;-)
