I have a few, Georgetown Pottery G5, And The Dirty Bird, Large..I recommend the Dirtybird, its larger, holds more water....heat retention about the same...

I have the schwarzweisskeramik. (probably not the correct spelling) Alittle expensive but I say it is worth it. A fantastic piece of craftmanship from Germany.

This is the old-time scuttle that was discussed in another post:

The Schwarzweisskeramik discussed (see reviews) in another post is also my post happens to be my go-to scuttle as well (I have the small) because it has a place to dip the brush.
The Dirty Bird (see reviews) probably wins the popularity contest from what I can tell from reading shaving forums and it's a wonderful piece of work.

Thanks every body. I used the search box
and found interested in the dirty bird scuttle. Does any one have pics of the webbed like lathering ridges? I'm curious to see what that looks like.

you might find a scuttle at the local antique store, but if your not looking for anything fancy you could always use an old coffiee mug they work pretty nice.
