    How do you like the Wilkinson stick? I've been thinking about giving one a try but never see any reviews.

    Excellent soap. In my opinion it is much better thanPalmolive which seems to have so much love!

    Fantastic. I like it better than Palmolive which is a good one, but the Wilkinson is better in my opinion.

    Both of these sticks are excellent indeed. The Wilkinson one has a nicer scent, although the Palmolive one smells nice also. :)

    I think so too. Both are good shaving soaps.

    I did my two passes and ended with a DFS. I'm quickly getting the learning curve on my straight. I need to use it more and nail down stropping. I'd rate myself very mediocre for that.

    Yes, placed there very carefully and left for a very short time - no harm done, I assure you!

    It was great. Thanks for the acknolwdgement. It really does add something to my morning Zen moment. It's just too bad I can't always make it exactly the same.
