39........ Going out of town for next couple days....When I get back I will take a picture of the puck after the 40th shave.
This is a bit like trying to guess how many jellybeans are in the jar. I'll say 100 shaves from a puck of Tabac. Tabac is an amazing soap for sure...but the scent is just too overpowering for me...pity.
You guys have obviously never spent any time with Tabac! With the looks of his puck, I'd venture a guess closer to 150-175.
I have to keep my puck of Tabac encased in concrete and buried in the backyard. I find the scent overpowering. But when I dig it up and remove it from its concrete sarcophagus and whip up a lather it is an absolutely amazing soap.
The boys over at B&B have a thread called 3017, where members specifically work through soaps one at a time. I bet they would have some stories to tell about getting through a Tabac puck; you should get a medal if you make it happen.
44....... 45....... I've seen those threads.... I'm not that hard core. Your avatar is Bronson not Porter......
They also load their brushes like mad. Did you do a pre-weigh to see how you're going through it? My bet would be about 1.3g/shave on the Tabac, for a total of about 95 shaves. I'm trying to work my way through a tub of Shaver Heaven right now, which should be significantly easier. You've got me on the avatar-The name Porter works but there's nothing like Bronson's face to make you feel like you're about to get a talking-to of the ages
I don't have any scales but I should have weighed it first. I might have to get one if I decide to do this with another soap later on.
I don't use a ton of soap on my brush and I face lather, but I've been using the same puck of Tabac (once a week) for going on 6 years now.
