    Williams. Love it or hate it! I use it regularly to Uber other soaps with great success. I have a dedicated mug with a puck always in the bottom. As I started straight-shaving, I used it for several years exclusively. One must know how to lather it up!
    Now Vanderhagen......that stuff is useless!

    Totally agree, once you know the lather is fine. Saxon recent shave video demonstrate that as a few guys were wondering about the lather, and were probably shocked that it was Williams : http://straightrazorpalace.com/shavi...ing-video.html

    To be honest, Tarkus, I seem to have taken on the Williams "dealer" status. I supply an elite group who cannot be seen buying it! I get these messages: "got any stuff?"

    Well, there should be no problem getting Williams to produce a good looking lather but even still it lacks something.
