  3. I'd put a serious plug in for their Shampoo Bars as well, Joe. Great products. The bathsoap isn't bad, either, and is well-scented obviously.
  4. Thank you, Gentlemen.
    You are right, Jim, the FH is all I had hoped for. It was on my 'list' for quite some time. Keith offered up for sale a replated beauty... don't know why it took so long for me to jump at it.

  5. I bought Stirling Spice , Stirling Christmas Eve and Stirling Frankincense and Myrrh last month and the matching aftershaves. I can't wait to use them after I complete this challenge!
  6. I am sly so shampoo bars don't interest me. Artisan bathsoaps are expensive. I can get 4 bars of Irish Spring, Dove, etc for the price of one Stirling bar soap.
  7. No question about it. Although, with the same logic, you can get 5 pucks of Williams for what one tub of Stirling costs as well...:)
  8. thank you Jason.that's the heavy one at 82g..the aristocrat jr's big brother..

  10. Your analogy is not fully correct. Five pucks of Williams doesn't come close in performance, slickness and scent of a tub of Stirling whereas a scented soap like Irish Spring probably performs just as well as Stirling bar soap. Body soap is just soap to get you clean. Shaving soap has more variables that are important to wetshavers.

  16. Thanks Jeff. A few years ago during winter, I was surprised by a patch of black ice in a parking lot. I wasn't hurt, but I went down suddenly. The pavement just looked wet. It was cold, and naturally I was in a hurry to get inside the building. Quite honestly, I should have paid more attention...and I do now. :)

  17. Respectfully, Joe, I will disagree. The Irish Spring and Dove you referenced aren't actually soaps and cannot even legally be labelled as such. Usually such products are labelled 'beauty bar' or 'deodorant bar' or 'body wash' etc, and I feel that I paying 'artisan' prices for products such as Stirling or others to have ingredient lists that are much more in line with what I would consider artisanal and worth paying for. You referenced that shaving soaps have variables that are important to wetshavers, could it not be possible that there are similar variables across many different bathing or grooming product types and that those variables are very important in those product types as well?

  18. Thank you, Jeff! What do you mean by class of the injector? Not sure I understand your question.

  19. @PLAla I think perhaps he is asking about what type it is, referring to Schick Injectors. Jeff the Injecto-Matic isn't made by Schick, it's made by PAL therefore doesn't have a letter type reference (D,E,G, etc)
