I've been buying mine from Detroit Grooming Co. lately. Outstanding shave cream. It smells great, and has a nice cool finish.
Their matte paste pomade is really good stuff too https://detroitgrooming.net +1 for Musgo Real Orange Spice tho. That stuff is real nice |
I'd rather have a cleaned gun than clean boots

| Of the ones I have tried I'd have to say D R Harris Windsor but there are so many I haven't tried yet. |

Next time I need to buy some classic shaving soap I'm going to get one of the smaller pucks to put in the edwin container. |

Van Der Hagen Deluxe Shave Soap
I've tried others but keep going back to Van Der Hagen deluxe if I want a sent I put the shaving mug and soap in the microwave for around 30 seconds and add the scent. |

Its cheap, but lathers up amazingly well. I started with a Taylor of old Bond Street Saldalwood. when i ran out i bought Arko shave sticks and I cut the sticks into little thin circles and fill up the old shaving soap bowl. Been doing this for three years now. Exactly. Get the case for all of twenty bucks. Shave forever.  It gets better as it ages. Arko's the shit. Between use and outreach programs I've gone through three cases in about ten years. Mostly outreach programs. ETA- the old Williams bakelite shave stick holders fit an arko stick exactly.

If you like vanderhagen, last I checked their base was the same as Col. Conks, which offered a great variety of non-vanderhagen scents. Which were far preferable.

I know this post is a few months old but I fell down a rabbit hole this morning. I really like TOBS - Mr Taylor and a couple of the other TOBS scents, recently used some of the Van Der Hagen and it was good as well but not the same level of scent as the TOBS. Somehow I ran out a few weeks ago so I lathered up with the bar I had in the shower which was Dove sensitive skin. Man I was surprised how well it did and it made a really nice lather. So I left half a bar in my cup and it did even better a few days later after absorbing a little water and softening up a bit. So then I chopped the bar up, zapped in the microwave and added some fragrance oil called Old Barbershop or something and it did well and smelled better, no idea what my wife paid for the Sam's Club package of soap but it has to be less than $1 per bar. So this morning I spent an hour going down the "Making homemade soap" rabbit hole, I remember my grandmother talking about making lye soap back in the day. Might be cool to get some lard and lye and give it a whirl. One thing I noticed on the soap making sites everybody was all "Vegan" and sustainable oils... I'm thinking homemade pig fat shaving cream might be the bomb! |
Boy, never fight until you have to. But when it's time to fight, you fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp to Noah's Ark… and brother, it's startin' to rain
