I guess this must have been shared before but I couldn't really find it. There's an amazing video on YT showing among other things, the late Sheffield razor grinder Billy Hukin making lather.
I was intrigued by his technique. He just drags his very wet brush over a piece of soap a few times and that's it. No loading and then building a lather. No bowls or scuttles. Nothing. (Starts at about 11:10)
Enjoy.
