I can only say that the only thing I don’t like about the Vintage Blades Tripled Milled Soap (VBTMS) is that is has ruined my taste for the many other soaps out there. I have been wet shaving for many years now and have spent several years trying and comparing top brand soaps to always finding myself reaching for VBTMS. This soap in my opinion is tops to the likes of (Mitchell’s WF my 2nd favorite), DR Harris, Edwin Jagger, Musgo Real, Cella, Cella Cepone, Geo Trumpers, Proraso, (old Proraso cream was my number one, that’s why I bought the last 5 tubes from the Italian Barber). I found most of these soaps to be very drying and irritating to the skin between passes.
I believe VBTMS has what every wet shaver is looking for; Super lather, great mild scent of coconut, and fantastic moisturizing. Does not dry, itch or burn like many others do during 3 or 4 pass application. Leaves a nice bed of slick moisturizing cream for the finest of blades to remove your stubble.
Here is what to do. go to www.vintagelades.com and purchase a puck of VBTMS (while on sale for $ 6.00 and order a nice aluminum tin ($3.00) Steal your wife’s cheese grater and mill to the finest and pack that tin! Now you have it for travel also. Place hot water in tin then take a shower. Then Whip up some Super Lather and enjoy! I use either my Edwin Jagger DE89L or Merkur 34 HD with either a Derby or Israeli Personna blade and let me tell you, what a shave it is. Finish up with an Alum block and A nice coat of D.R. Harris Unscented Shave Milk. All this fun for under $ 10.00 Wow!
Have a great shave of a day. See ya!
