Hi Ron,
I was thinking of placing an order with Muehle myself. When are you going to try the soaps out? I would be interested to know what you think of them.
Warm regards,
Alex
Hey Alex, I have the razor that comes in a very nice travel case (made by Merkur), as well as the aloe shaving soap and a long handled 21mm brush in super badger coming my way soon! I will post some pics as soon as they arrive. Cheers, DJ.
 
Hi Alex,
I tried the Marigold (Ringelblumchen) this AM. I lathered with it somewhat differently than I usually do, so my Day 1 results may not be a fair assessment. If you are willing to wait until tomorrow morning (US Central Daylight Saving Time, GMT -5), I'll be happy to relate a more meaningful experience, but for now... :a38:

UPDATE:
Alex, here's my review.
 
after much fanfare on this product, finally bit the bullet...

Crabtree & Evelyn Sandalwood Cream in the Tube
 
Thayers Lemon
Musgo Real Cream
Feather blades
Classic soaps - Sandalwood, Lime & Coconut

The soaps smell fantastic, especially the lime & coconut. Lets hope they shave well also.
 
Geo. F. Trumper faux ivory handle DE razor. She's a beaut! Test drive will be Sunday morning with a new Feather blade!

My C&E Best Badger brush came this morning. Having never shaved with a badger brush before, I didn't really know what to expect. Lathered up some Taylor Rose and I had to start over twice: first there was too much water, and then not enough. I ended up going with Proraso (easier for me to lather) until I get the hang of this thing.

They also sent me some Lavender Hand Cream (a pretty big tube, condidering it was a sample), which smells and works great.

Now, if only my Merkur long handle and blades get here...
 
Bought for a Father's Day gift for my father-in-law:
  • C&E Best Badger Brush
  • Sienna hand soap
  • Saint Charles Shave Almod Soap

While at C&E, got a sample of the Sienna cream and a very nice sample of the Nomad. Right now they have 15 gram tubes of Nomad cream they're giving to anyone interested. That's 1/10 of a full tub.

For myself, my Saint Charles Shave Shamrock soap came in. I also received a nice surprise of a pack of Brazilian Gillettes from someone over at SMF. A lot of old Gillettes also arrived. Looks like I have some cleaning to do.
