MWF? What?!

*CHECK PAGE TWO FOR A MWF LATHERING PICTURE TUTORIAL*

People are saying this stuff isn't good? I ordered 4 pucks off of that deal page in the other section (3 for me, one for a bud). I didn't know how it was but ordered several because of all the praise it receives, and to save shipping if it turns out to be any good.

I just had my mind blown. I swirled my brush around lightly for a few seconds and began lathering up. A minute lather I had lather falling off my brush. Thick, wonderful lather. People were mentioning that this stuff doesn't lather so well.. I don't believe it now that I see it. I have near 20 soaps/creams and this stuff has absolutely blown me away. Perfect shave, all 5 passes (I didn't want to stop).

I usually rotate my soaps around but since I have 3 of these, i'm gonna solely use this until the puck is out, I might pick some other stuff up along the way but i'm gonna put this stuff to the test.

Also, others were mentioning that it doesn't smell pleasant. Maybe it's just me, but I really like the bitter soapy smell it has. A lot.

I'm ordering more.

Great news as I just received mine from over the Pond. How about a vid? You've got me feeling like I want an evening shave!
 
This is one of my favorites, one of the best out there. I just got two more pucks but I should order more.
 
Used to have about 20 different shave soaps. Got rid of some, and down to about 10 shave soaps. About to rid myself of another 9 shave soaps.

I only use MWF, so why keep the other 19 around?
 
I like it, but I'm having a hard time falling in love with it. I think it's average, but with all the hype surrounding it I was expecting to get a really close shave and for it to leave my skin feeling amazing with all that Tallow and Lanolin. So far, it's not living up to my expectations at all.

For me, I've found Arko to be my new go-to. BBS shave in one to two passes and it leaves my skin feeling absolutely amazing.

As with everything, YMMV. Maybe I'm doing something wrong with the fat?
 
I was smitten with MWF after my first shave with it, too. Great stuff and I've never had any trouble lathering it, either.

That's exactly what i've been getting to.. I like having the others around but I know what functions the best so why bother with the rest? Unless theyre equal performers with different scents.. In that case I'll keep my tabac, AoS, and cade sitting around, just for variety?

I can not stand arko. It does my face nowhere near as good, unfortunately. I tried to like it. I've got some of their cream coming so i'm gonna give it a go.
 
You're wrong, they're right. It is terrible stuff. Send your pucks to me so I can see they are properly destoyed!

Glad you found the FAT. One of the best soaps made IMHO!
 
Count me as a fan!

I scored 4 new pucks plus another, partial puck in the ceramic bowl on the 'bay for $50. :001_smile
