Williams soap is a great preforming soap and the vintage Williams makes mounds of thick slick lather in seconds. The one drawback when using vintage soaps is the lack of scent, other than a pain soapy scent. On second thought that is not really a drawback as I rather enjoy a clean soapy scent. That being said, the Williams made the stubble stand up and take notice, and the Tech loaded with a Feather wiped away the whiskers leaving me Dolphin smooth. Have a blessed day gentlemen.
