    Thanks! It doesn't have any makers marks that I can find. I don't remember where I bought it. I know it wasn't online because I have never bought any mugs online. It's in great shape, though. The picture don't show it but it has a crackled finish on the whole mug. I don't use the mug to keep soap in just to keep the brush warm while shaving. Except for a few Old Spice mugs.

    I'll say 9 months. It took me a yr and a half to get through Tabac and MWF alternating between them daily, 4 passes/day.

    I am impressed with your dedication to your soap. I can't imagine using the same soap everytime, but at the same time I can see the appeal.

    Do you have any plans for your next soap project?
    Maybe try a croap and compare the longevity?

    Yeah....no sign of a tug yet.

    Thanks!

    Well, I thought maybe doing another kind of soap after. A croap is a good idea or maybe a tube of cream. What would be a good croap? I'm thinking maybe tub of Cella. The tub not the brick! Cream...maybe Palmolive or my favorite right now Williams.

    Edit: I might try the small puck of the new Williams mug soap. That one should take long at all.

    Williams would be a fun read. Even more fun if you hated the soap, but that's just me being difficult :)

    Is there any noticeable dent in the soap yet?

    How do you remove the blade and out it in another razor?

    I guess 10 blades was the limit?

    No way to swap blade from razor to razor with the injectors. The chrome Hydro Magic still has the blade I used ten times still seems to have life in it. I don't know how much longer it will last but the 10 was very good for me. Going to keep using it just to see how many I can get out of it, though.

    I looked back and forward and saw 3 different razors. I thought you had the blade you used 10 times in 2 different razors. But it was 1 razor 10x, 1 razor 1x and a third razor 1x on the blade. My mistake
