Ah,

The transformation from tightwad to true wet shaver has begun! Derby to feather, the extremes in DE shaving....when I have some time (in case of cuts), I use a feather, when out of time, I use the Derby. If I can perfect the feather cut all the time, I will sell my stockpile of derbies. I moved to straights so, now when I have time, I devote it to straight shaving....the speak around the forums in general is 100 straight shaves to perfect the straight razor so I have about 75 or so to go.....this takes away from my feather mastering. I think the derbies will be around for awhile.

Wise choice on finding a good soap, the fun, or challenge will be finding one that suits you the best. After going through the expensive ones, i found myself leaning towards two..dare I say them for fear of changing the forum topic...one has woof fat in the name and the other one has Arko in the name =}

Just saying!
