I want to thank Joe Chandler for providing a puck of Burma-Shave shaving soap. I just got it today. It smells wonderful. I can't wait to give it a go :).
I also found out the company that holds the burma-shave rights and recipes. They still manufacture the soaps, including the brushless creams that became so popular from the road signs. I've contacted them about becoming a distributor :).
