Yes. The price difference isn't as big as it seems, since the MWF pucks are very large and are consumed much more slowly than the glycerine soaps. You could get over a year of shaves out of a MWF puck as long as you don't abuse it (soaking it during your shower, etc).

One thing to watch out for is the lanolin in the MWF. Some guys are sensitive to it. But there are a lot of guys that are sensitive to the clay in the Classic soap as well, and you seem to be doing ok with it. I used it when I first started with the DE and nearly quit because I couldn't stop the razor burn. Turned out it was a reaction to the Classic soap.
