    This is an excellent soap. It does like a lot of water to get it going.

    3 pass shave this morning. Very surprised at this soap, with a short ingredient list it was super slick and made a great lather. The scent is way better than anticipated, kind of a basalm/ pine scent but not boring or plain in any way. Ended up with a dolphin smooth BBS shave, even the problem areas are smooth as silk. Happy as can be from today's shave results. Hope everyone had the same sucess.

    Fatboy February!!!!!



    February 28
    Razor - 1959 Gillette Fatboy (6)
    Blade - [​IMG] (2)
    Soap - Soap Commander Courage
    Brush - Jayaruh #46
    Post - Alum

    Final shave of Fatboy February. I grabbed the JR46 and Soap Commander and quickly had slick lather. No worries, no problems. Shave was very smooth with the Ladas, two pass plus touch up to get to a near BBS. No problems, worries, complaints. Great way to finish the month.

    February has been incredibly fun! I added the new Fatboy to the collection, tried out Stirling and Soap Commander soaps and won the JR46 to add a synthetic brush to the den. My, my, my.....can't ask for much more than that! Lots of fun figuring out the new stuff and a quick summary would include the following:

    1. @Jayaruh makes one fine brush.
    2. Maggard Synthetic knots are apparently alien technology.
    3. The Fatboy lives up to its hype. Fine, fine razor.
    4. Stirling soaps - Excellent!
    5. Soap Commander soaps - Excellent!
    6. It's hard to stay on focus with all of the enabling that goes on in this place. Sheesh!
