I have the MMOC, too. I prefer the 1912, but I’ve never used the MMOC consistently because the random times I use it I get a fair amount of irritation.If you like a 1912, you have to try a MMOC.
That's a great soap, with a great scent.Just finished my first soap during this sabbatical, B&M Spice. I really enjoyed using it!
Have fun everyone and enjoy your shaves!

I'm being reminded of why I'm in the sabbatical again -- that puck of Col. Conk is STILL alive, although finally beginning to get really thin and has a big hole in it. 144 shaves on it so far, and I think it will last through the month, almost 5 month. I have at least 20 more soaps.....
Great to hear you found some key things out during the sabbatical! I’m a badger guy also
I prefer badger for all creams and soaps except when i am using MWF. It is my experience that synthetic or boar brushes stand up to the puck better than badger.Great to hear you found some key things out during the sabbatical! I’m a badger guy also
@Brian C.,I need to find out how much of the ToOBS I use for each shave, because while it does cost around $15-$20 for each tub, they tend to weight anywhere from 240g-260+. After exchanging messages with Taylor, the minimum weight of each new, filled tub should be 219g, as the empty tub, with lid, weighs 69g. If I have the ability to burn through 2 tubs in a year, I’ll be shocked.
They still will end up costing me a little more than the cheap canned goo, but should save me over the course of the year, and I get to use good stuff. It’s a win in my book.
Last Williams puck lasted 5 months of daily, two pass shaves. Occasionally three, or a lot of touchups, as blades age or I get sloppy. Current average is 95 shaves per puck
Something on the order of 0.35 grams of soap per shave, maybe less. Don't need much to make my face slick after all.
