SOTD "Classic Shave Soap" Theme Week

Gentlemen,

I really enjoyed last week's artisinal soap theme, and was impressed with all the great posts. I'm trying to tally exactly which soaps were used, but it is sometimes difficult to tell which are artisan and which are classic soaps. That brings us to this week's "Classic Shave Soap" theme. It is easy to say that MWF, Tabac, the three Ts and Arko are classics, but is Martin de Candre artisinal or classic? For me, it's a classic that I plan to break out later this week. Next week, in honor of the Super Bowl which just finished, we will have a "Super Shaving Bowl" theme week where all the bowl latherers here can show off what their using.

Sunday Night

Late '40s Super Speed
Perma Sharp blade (9th or 10th use)

Stellar shave tonite.....

Time to move on to another blade, like a Personna Platinum.
Loaded into the '63 slim should do it for the next shave.
