Yes, MWF is a good soap all right. And it lasts a long, long time. In fact it is almost a certainty that it will outlast your curiosity regarding other soaps and creams!

I tried this soap a while ago, back when I only used a DE. I can't get past the pine tree scent. I wish they'd make it in other scents. Maybe in a couple years ill come back to it again when my nose has matured.

Pine tree? My MWF never smelled like pine tree.

I'm in the same situation with another soap.
I bought a jar of 'Martin de Candre' as a birthday present to myself a couple months ago and now I've only used other stuff maybe once or twice, it's a pitty because some of the stuff I have is really great.Last edited by Baxxer; 10-28-2012 at 09:01 PM.

I had the Kent version. Although I've read there isn't much difference between it and the real deal. Ok, if you guys say it isn't, maybe ill try it again sooner! Originally Posted by Jimbo

I enjoy the MWF when I shave in the shower with a DE. Very nice lather.

Gentlemen, Mitchell's Wool Fat is a way of life. It's part of the sacred right of passage into the wet shaving world. Except that this superb soap takes a permanent place in the luggage. I have used it for years, and will use it into the next century. No uberlather mixing with this. Nothing like that. No need for it. I take it straight and my Hollywood face loves me for it. I have a full soap dish and two replacement pucks. I think I need to buy a half a dozen more pucks just in case the world comes to an end.

Thanks for the heads-up! I like pine-y scents and have been meaning to get some MWF. So maybe I'll put that on hold for a bit and try the Kent. Originally Posted by HARRYWALLY

This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
