    I think it's kinda a catch 22.

    I think more people would take if the soap was in the tub but if the soap is in the tub they prob won't all fit.

    The box has arrived along with 3 shipments of replenishments. I opened the box and a glorious smell filled my office. I'll lay it all out tonight for a photo shoot and will start sorting it. I already have a few takes in mind

    Glad it made it intact. Hope the rest of you enjoy. I know I sure did.

    The Tcheon Fung Sing Linea Intenso and the MDC are calling my name. There were a few others but I can't remember which they were.

    In that case we need to clearly mark those types of soaps.

    However, I do not want to do this on a consistent basis. Please, let's all put in soaps that we are okay with anyone taking and replacing from their den. Remember, this is all about give and take and the opportunity to try various soaps.

    Sorry. I said it in the forum but I didn't write it on the soap. It is a $70 soap...When it is even available...So I wanted everyone to be able to try it.

    Understandable, and thanks for donating it for everyone. We need to have @ob1page mark it so everyone will know it stays in.

    It's like watching TV at someone else's house. They are holding the remote control, flipping channels...

    There's a lot to go through but I've already went scent blind. I'll revisit the box again tomorrow.

    Stirling Orange Chill, JR #130 Synth brush
    Eversharp (Krona) and Feather blade
    Alum, WH - Lime & Patchouli E.O.

    Menthol Monday! Stirling is good stuff. Chill on a warm spring day doesn't hurt either. Orange bumps it up a notch. Rubbed my Pass-around sample onto the bottom of the suribachi and attacked it with a well shook out Maggard's synthetic knot. Up popped a couple shaves worth of tasty lather. On application, the "chill" seemed light but present. Mild DE/sharp blade combo pulled it's weight through regular W, A, & XTG and since I had plenty of lather a couple extra cleanup passes. I don't have an orange AS, so I splashed on witch hazel enhanced with lime and patchouli EO.

    Wow, it's amazing how much the box has changed since I had it. Good job Gentlemen!
    When does Volume III start?
