    Electric Sheep is a mutton tallow soap.

    I’m a huge fan of their mutton tallow shave soap for performance. I use the unscented........ which is anything but that, when you include the aroma of the tallow. So they usually have a heavy masking. Did I say I really love the protective lather.

    Next time it’ll be Scots Pine Sheep for me.

    The Electric Sheep should help with skeeter control on the coyote hunts.

    Sharks aren’t bad blades, Danny! Do you remember Shark Week from a year or two ago? We all used Shark blades and joked about blood in the water. Fun times! :)

    My only concern, Bill, is that the scent may linger and lead to issues with SWMBO. It arrives tomorrow. So i expect I’ll shave with it on Sunday. Time will tell. Got the TR6 out of storage. Currently spending time shining it up! :)

    I heard TR6’s love Electric Sheep Soap. Might work out as a car wash.

    I use it occasionally, I hated citronella candles as a kid. Still not a fave.

    May I ask, I think I’ve seen you use lime stuff. Is that scent ok with the greater authority?

    The Thiers Issard arrived today from Canada. It’s the largest blade I’ve used so for and it feels nice in the hand. It was sharp enough to get a decent shave but it’s going to need to be sent out to get refreshed while I practice honing with my “beater” razors. The Small Batch Shave Tonic is some nice juice. Nice boozy/spiced scent and leaves my skin feeling great. I’m always impressed by the Zingari Man soap base when I go for a while without using it and the scent of the Soloist goes along with the boozy spiced scent to the Shave Tonic. Speaking of booze, I think it’s time for a dram of rye.
