    I busted out my wool fat today. It was one of the first soaps I purchased. I didn't remember it being so thirsty. It seemed like it took a lot of water to get it going but once I found the sweet spot it lathered right up. Very thick and rich nice and slick. Great soap provides everything needed for a great shave.

    I really like Mitchell’s. I tried something with my last puck- I filled the dish with water for 2 days, drained the water but not the oil(lanolin I assume) and let it re-solidify for a week. It was supposed to make the fat less thirsty. Maybe it helped a little, I can’t be sure. I can get rich lathers from it quickly, but that may just be because I’ve dialed it in by now.

    An icon that belongs in everyone's collection. Love that clean scent -- a rich man's Arko, lol.

    Love the MWF. One of my top soaps. It is one that I have used up and replaced, and would replace again.

    The Fat was the second soap I bought when starting the wet shaving gig. I’m still on my first puck because I’m using so many other soaps in my rotation. But I’ve still stocked up on a few more pucks just to ensure a prosperous future.

    MWF is a really nice soap, I would recommend Stirling Electric Sheep over MWF.
