    I'm disappointed Obie. I don't see Cousin's Festus' home made soap with genuine badger slobber. I'm told the owner of MDC secretly uses that soap instead of his own.

    Spendur, my friend, Cousin Festus is coming out with his own version of Martin de Candre — for shaving legs.

    Strictly speaking on the soap side with one exception.
    Czech & Speake I have not tried (might be sacrilege....)
    And adding Cella you have my line up.
    It is just Whisker Whacking
    Relax and Enjoy!

    Czech & Speake is , IMO on scale with Tabac. I really like the way this soap performs and for me, it is effortless to get a great lather.

    Begs a recently asked question if there are any poor Italian soaps.

    He already has. Designed for shaving goats legs. Baaaby loves it. Would you like a free sample?

    Thank you for the offer, Spendur, but no, because I already have trouble shaving my beard. Lynn says I have tree trunks for my beard, and he is right. So you see what I mean.
    Regards to Cousin Festus.

    Xpec is a marvelous cream and, in my estimation, the best made today. Of the ones I have tried, anyway. The scent is a blend of tobacco, musk, lavender and a few other notes. I find it fresh, clean and hearty. Good stuff.

    Indeed...Many of the shaving creams and soaps on Obie's list are my favorites as well.

    I haven't tried the Le Pere Lucien soap or the Xpec cream yet, but I'll certainly put them both on my "Buy" radar now.
