I got close to 2.5 months out of Cade. I load heavily, too. Enjoy it. It might need to be my next puck as it is a great warm weather soap and I have a few pucks saved up.
You're gonna like it Bruce, it's good stuff. I need to order some after I use up my TOBS Peppermint SC.Out with the old and in with the new. Proraso is done, fantastic shaves from it.
Not wanting to stockpile really limits my options in Canada. Amazon doesn't sell much and there aren't many choices locally or online to order a single tub workout paying $$ for shipping. I was able to find some JM Fraser's, which I knew the little shop had 5y ago and they still had it today. He used to have other scents bit said he can't get them any more, just the classic.
If it works out, it should last me a good while. I won't hold back on loading though, it's dirt cheap. It was $12.50 cad, no tax, for a pound of cream.

1/4" thick chunk of SIM cut off the stick is still going after 2 weeks of daily use. At least a week more, I reckon. I can't imagine how long the stick would take to 3017 used as a stick. Great shaves with any brush and razor combo so far. Very heavy lather when properly hydrated.

Over the course of the last year I have been concentrating on using and finishing product. I have been going through aftershaves, colognes and shaving creams and sold off most of the excess. But the soaps... well, I just like them all and don't want to unload them. Over the last several months I have been using mainly Pre de Provence and C&E Sandalwood with an occasional SCS soap thrown in for good measure. ( 1 SCS I finished and have about 1/2 of another remaining.) Seriously, I have barely put a dent in these soaps. (I know in comparision to some of youhoarderscollectors my collection is quite modest. )
My best guess... they should be done by 2017. That's approximately 2,555 shaves. Then, once they are all done, I'll use that NOS Old Spice soap sitting in my shave closet that I have been wanting to try.
FYI - In the unmarked bowl is Floris JF.
Since the beginning of the year I have used nothing but the C&E Sandalwood. I am just beginning to notice an indentation on the soap. I am tempted to use it solely until it is finished.
The Chubby 1 Best and Rooney 3/1 Super are the two brushes in my collection that can really eat up a cake of soap.
That's why I couldn't find any. I was looking for some after my Proraso was done but couldn't find it.Finished bottle of KMF. I like everything about this cream except the pump bottle. I guess that’s the last I’ll see of KMF unless the new owner decides to bring it back.
What’s left: Frankensoap, about an inch hole in bottom of puck; can of Gillette Foamy, about 35 shaves in; tube of Macca Root, unopened.

I always enjoyed KMF, hated the pump but liked the squeeze tubes. They we're also a better size so you could switch out scents quicker.
Go Egmont! The end is in sight. Then you can chose from like a thousand soaps guilt free because you will actually need soap. Bet it's been a while since you actually needed to buy a soap.Finished bottle of KMF. I like everything about this cream except the pump bottle.
