Taylor's Lime soap comes back up tomorrow for what I hope will be a long run. Right now it's already got 34 shaves on it, and it appears to be headed for a great many more before it runs out.

A good shaving soap has become a very good bath soap.

Interesting, Gary. I presume from your post that the new Taylors doesn't measure up to other available soaps. Am I correct?
Best regards,

The TOBS Lime hard soap provided 56 good shaves over about 3 or 4 years. I wanted to use it up, but I got bored and completely lost my interest in shaving with it. Happily I was able to re-purpose it and as a result I am enjoying it once again in a different capacity. After the used puck is gone, there's a new one waiting in the box which will also be repurposed.
