Thread: Which (puck-style) soap should I try next?

To the OP
Yup....

I still want to start a poll but there is a limit in number of options. I think I'm going to need to list like 40 brands to cover all your suggestions.

Tcheon Fung Sing. I have MdC which is stellar, but I also find myself using this one just as much. IMO it's really good bang for the buck.

Mitchell's Wool Fat would've been my suggestion. Good to see you went with it.

Excellent choices. MWF is a favorite of mine. Had I caught the thread sooner, I'd have mentioned Erasmic. It's a wonderful soap that lathers with ease.

I have to admit that I have a bit of a bias against Proraso. A friend of mine gave me a tub of it and I was very put off by the scent, so I've been reluctant to try it.

Anyway, I've started the polls. There is a limited number of choices in each poll, so I split them up into four threads. Vote in all of them!

Part 3 — http://straightrazorpalace.com/soaps...-part-3-a.html
Part 4 — http://straightrazorpalace.com/soaps...-part-4-a.html

Make suggestions for missing favorites and I'll add them to a follow-up poll.

Bob,
Patiently awaiting for my Fitjar, and a free sample is always welcome.

To the OP,

Good selection. MWF and Martin de Candre are my all time favorite soaps. MdC is a little pricey, but worth it And a jar of it will last forever...

Guess what showed up in the mail this afternoon? Fitjar Fjellheim shave soap and AS Balm with a sample of Slatteroy. Both scents are excellent although I think I like the Slatteroy a tad more. Haven't had the chance to try it, it'll have to wait until tomorrow.

I've tried a bunch, and so far my 3 favorites are Pre de Provence, DR Harris Arlington and Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood...no particular order, although at the moment I've made DR Harris my everyday choice.
