The Obie Memorial First Tier Soaps and Creams Thread.

[MikeB52]

Received and tried the krokos today for the first time.
Impressive glass jar, wide mouth, low stance and good lid. Nice packaging.
Lovely sweet saffron scent and bright yellow tone to the soap.
Tried it with my Thater 4125 and white dog scuttle. Whet the tips of the brush, swirled it 6 times each direction to load up, added a few sprinkles of water in the scuttle as required to get the whip I wanted.
Lovely lather, nice lubricity. The lather clung together in the basin off the blade as I rinsed. Only other soaps I have with that cohesive strength are SV, and Tabac.
Two pass pleasurable shave with enough still on the brush for a third or fourth pass. I used my Williams SRP so two was all I needed.
