One year? I stuck with the same soap for over 25 years lol
(and I actually found out that I like that soap, even now I tried several others)
Anyone pretty much sticking with one soap?

PannaCrema since Feb. and less often now P-160 and Mikes.
I'm still in the early stages so I have an urge to try them all but eventually I want to narrow it down to 1-3 soaps that I will use regularly. I can be very costly to buy bunch of soaps at once just to narrow down your choices though. I think I have enough soap to last me for the better part of a decade. I guess that's where the BST comes in handy. A guy can buy and try and sell or trade away what he doesn't like.
+1. My family could have bought me a puck every Christmas and I would have been happy with just that. Now I'm still searching...
I'm down to 3 or 4 but would definitely be fine with only Cella or Proraso White...hands down my favorites.
Yep...Mitchell's Woolfat.
I use it around 28 days out of every month with Speick and Mike's pine/cedar for the rare change up.

When I get through all of current stock, it will be one of three: La Toja, MWF, or Cella.
Plenty of time to make the decision!

Well said, sir.
I don't have just one, but I'd be fine with only using Crabtree's Nomad.
Yep. I'm now working on the last of a puck of Harris Arlington I started after finishing a puck of Tabac. After this, on to a tub of Cella. I could easily use any of these three exclusively until they're finished.

Unacceptably Lasering Chicken Giblets?
RR Don Marco
Love it!
Right now I am using it, Arko, and MWF.
I have many to use up but Don Marco is without a doubt my favorite and if there could be only 1, it would be the one.

I just messed up and bought a mess of Ogallala soaps and a few others.
I have 8 (thought it was 7) tubs of Don Marco en route and 1 of the new Don Marco hard soaps coming.
I am good for many years to come or til the next itch gets me!

I tend to use on soap until it's gone. It takes a loooong time to get through a cake of Tabac, but I did it. Now I'm on a healthy chunk of Cella stuffed into a (previously) empty tub from Prorasso. I expect to be on it for the next 3 months or so.
Well ... I slightly disagree ... wasn't I properly shaving when I was ignorant of B&B, and used the same soap and brush every day? I think I was ... DE or wet shaving in general is not about trying as many products as possible ... that is shaving hobby.
I am a one soap person basically; I know what works for me, and I don't like to change what is working.
I am the same type as you ... I prefer to stick with what works for me, and only want to change when I'm not satisfied anymore with the current product.
So I guess wet shaving has saved me a lot of money over the years lol
I'm pretty much sticking with Proraso with an occasional foray into my stash of vintage Williams. I've also got some MdC that I will eventually use up, but Proraso sees daily use.
Sadly, after a year of wet shaving I have not finished a single pack of soap or tub of cream.
MWF and Tabac are the ones I use more often than the others though.
Someone should start a thread say " One month with MWF" all who join should use only that soap for a month.

I've tried just 4 creams and 3 soaps but the second thing i tried was by far the best so i am sticking with it.

One of the reasons for moving around - both in razors, blades and soaps - is that I'd like to get to the point where I can use anything at any time, and not be dependent on one technique or one product. *
Each of the small wonderful artisans won't be around forever, the larger companies like to reformulate.
While some may charcterize this behaviour as "always searching for a better shave", I don't think that's me - I also don't want to get stuck in a rut.
*ok, so I want to emulate turtle. there are worse goals
