    One puck of MWF will outlast you, Paul.

    I've got the blue Razorock soap and it doesn't lather like the original MWF. Not a bad soap, just not like The Fat.

    When you buy 10 at a time, it's about $8.15 per puck ($81.50 total), including shipping, and not including VAT and not including any discount codes.

    13 years ago I paid $6 for my MWF. I got it through a friend who had bought some and had an extra Puck. I still have it.

    When they were going through that Brexit thing, and the exchange rate took a pounding, the price dropped down to about $6 again a few years ago. I wished I'd stocked up on British stuff when the pound was low and the dollar high.

    Here's an interesting story relative to that: I ordered my Rise SuperFoam box just as my nephew was entering college. Well, he graduated and I still had two or three remaining. (Note-the box had 9 shaving creams).

    I don't normally spend that much either, but for my favorite low cost soap? Yep. All the alternative soaps that equal its performance are $40+.

    Spend money now to save money later, yes?

    "Vintage" MWF is being bought up faster than Bitcoin. :happy097:

    No joke, I'm 8 pucks deep. I did the same with Williams(18) pucks and Crabtree and Evelyn (10) pucks. lol

    Not a bad investment, considering the (I think, unjustified) price of modern Williams on eBay.

    I'm 23 pucks deep on MWF.

    My only response to why I went so deep is because I haven't found a soap at that price point that delivers both a rich, thick, lather and also provides a high level of slickness. There's other soaps that do it, just not at that price point.

    That's pretty much my view of WMS. It was the first shaving soap I tried, and between my natural brilliance and the tons of good advice I received from others, I fell in love with it and mastered it before I found out I was supposed to hate it.

    Also, it was carried in my local grocery chain (Wegman's) at $0.99/puck. When it was discontinued I hit the nearest 6 stores and bought them out.

    You must be planning on shaving until you are 110 years old. ;)

    I estimate I normally get around 6-9 months from a puck. So if I use it exclusively, at minimum, it would be an 11 1/2 year supply. I'm 42 now.

    Unless my creams, and soaps go rancid, or mold I think I'm good to go for the rest of my shaving career

    I am no angel when it comes to accumulating product, for which there is no doubt, I will never use. :scared003:
