Nice! My local barber shop makes their own soap, too. I got one puck from them and I am going to bring some empty containers to fill when they do their next batch. Great lather and slide and cushion, low scent and washes off easily, not sticky and gummy.

You know I have a whole drawer full of various soap but the one I like best is an old old formula containing olive and laurel oil called Aleppo Soap <<. It does not lather much but provides a good shave, does not irritate and no need for aftershave or moisturizer.

Old thread I see, but I have a Rockwell 6s which I've really liked.

I have way too many razors. Current favourites are Timeless Bronze and R41 in Zamak and titanium. I find both shave smoother than the stainless…

I use a George Trumper double edge razor with Merkur blades. I’ve had and used it for years!
