I've got four of them now it's tough to pick a favorite! They're easily the best shave soaps I've ever used.If you don't have SUPER sensitive skin I'd say give em a go! Other than that I'd stick to the thicker creams...

I find that many pipers have things in common. So, how many of us use a safety razor?
I use a Merkur Vision (I think) and am trying a new blade (need to check to see what it is).

I've been using a brush and soap for a while now. Actually trying out glyerin, and I like it so far.
 
I still use a Ralph Lauren pewter razor with Gillette Trac-II Plus cartridges, and my old Crabtree & Evelyn brush. It was their top-line badger when I bought it but it's about 35 years old; I probably need to think about replacing it soon. I also have one of their stoneware scuttles, but they have discontinued the sandalwood soap inserts, so I've retired it until I find replacement soap (anyone know of any that will fit?); I couldn't find any good soap in town so I'm currently using plain old Williams soap in a nice heavy coffee mug!
