Shaving Soap/Cream Purchase Thread

[StogieJim]

That's a good one. I've been buying his stuff from when he was still in Brooklyn.

Problem is every time I want one of his soaps, he's out of stock, or the wait is like 3-4 weeks after ordering...

Great soap though

These two have been my favorite to date: Wool Fat (pictured), & Acca Kappa 1869.

But I am an absolute huge fan of Triumph & Disaster's bar soap, & Ritual face wash. Pretty much the best money I've ever spent for the shower.

Nice Merkur setup.

Nice Merkur setup.

Thanks!
Here's the other one thats partly shown in the first picture. Home made, turned on my fathers lathe
I did this one more for a fun project, but was really shocked when the razor actually provides a more comfortable shave than the Merkur I've been using for years.

If anyone was thinking of trying The Blades Grim creams, straightrazors.com have a flash sale on the little 2oz samples at the moment, just picked up 2 Unscented, 2 smoulder and 2 citrus cooler..

I know they are only little bit at $1.79 it's a good way to get your feet wet and see if they are any good.

Found it on sale, $24 on Amazon two years ago. Scent is what I remember from my youth.

It's a Nathan Clark custom made with I believe High Mountain White or Silvertip Badger, can't remember which one. I contacted him on face book and had him make it for me. My favorite brush.

Yeah I love these scents. The Old Spice is not exactly what I remember but it is the closest thing to the original I have found. I have to order another.
