Pss blade 13 shaves
Culmak boar
Boots tub soap + drop glycerin
La toja stick pre lather

Futur making it's music, lovely close shave. Blade going well, smooth & extremly sharp. Palm stropped and set aside to dry till next shave. The boots soap does not have a nice aroma at all, but it gives up a pretty useful lather. I do prefer the erasmic stick for pre lather, the one i use is the deodorant type wind up stick. The soap, if you can call it that, is more translucent and softer than the hard white standard one.
The soap is the same as the erasmic tub. When the stick is empty, i wind the thing back down. Then melt a tub of erasmic tub in a pyrex jug in the microwave till it melts, let it cool a bit and then pour it into the container. Any left over i pour back into original tub ready for next meltdown. Perfect job.

All the very, very best
Wills.

out of curiosity, why is this a separate thread from sotd?

Undoubtedly, because the OP didn't notice the proper thread.

I'll close this one to encourage further posts to go in the right place.
