    Here is my biggest single catch, ten pucks from an ad on Craigslist that date to the mid-late 60's.

    My favorite artisan soap maker?

    Well, I like myself well enough I suppose, and Irena and Sara are nice ladies. Don't think I could choose a favorite.

    As for the soaps themselves :p, I don't care much for shave soap. I'm more of a shaving cream kinda person.

    Fair enough. I use the word "favorite" quite loosely. It is interesting to see what people choose and claim as their favorite and for what reasons.

    That is quite a score! Were they local too?

    I think you misunderstand me. :)

    You asked who, as in a person, not what, as in a product.

    I didn't know they had Craigslist in the '60s. Musta been much lower tech in those days. :p

    Received my order from Stirling Soap. Excellent product! Did a test lather with Stirling spice, super easy to lather, great smelling and very slick! Rods soaps keep on getting better! I also bought bath soap.

    Oh, haha. Yeah, I asked who instead of asking what in hopes of avoiding someone answering with a specific soap. I wanted to know which company is a persons favorite. I guess I could have done better.

    I would have to agree!

    :lyrtuy5: I thought of posting a similar response, but figured giving one ribbing per thread was a better idea.

    I think you did just fine. Everyone seemed to know what you were asking.

    I just found the thread title amusing every time it popped up in the New Posts queue, and frankly I'm surprised I was the first to mention it.

    Can you refurb that for me? ;)

    Cheaper than a year's worth of chiropractic care.
    What kind of warranty does that come with?

    So, you basically wanted to be the first to harass me. Ok, I will play along.

    Harass? If you aren't of a playful mindset, you simply could just say so.

    There's a lot of all-in-fun teasing that goes on around here. But, unlike other boards, there is no harassment or mean-spiritedness. Many posts should be read with an implied smiley at the end of them.

    I guess harass is too harsh of a word. I didn't mean it like that.

    Except for the fact that issues occurred when you tried to get a hold of Les because his had a broken B!
