I don't believe they will ship the glass bottles to N/A any more, but I could be wrong.Keep checking back, they seem to restock often. Snag a bottle of the "discontinued" Floid Blue while you're there
For razors, I traded for an ATT M1 a few weeks ago and that's been my daily driver ever since. It's mild yet efficient and kind to my sensitive skin. Slightly better than my Weber which has been my #1 for two years.
Still on the wait list for the Wolfman...since June.
ATT might be my graduation present to myself when I finish my MBA in a few months. I don't fully understand all the differences between the heads or know which one I want but I know I want oneI am..er..was...guess I don't know...on Wolfmans wait list since last June with no communication. So I popped on an ATT slant instead and am very pleased. Things happen for a reason I guess. I love the slant, cant believe how well it shaves. I guess Wolfman makes a good razor but I'll never know. Too many better options (better as in you can actually get them). ATT may be coming out with a new SE soon. Rockwell looks interesting too.

[MENTION=33552]bakerbarber[/MENTION] do you typically go through soaps pretty fast? I've owned a tub of Valobra Fougere and AoS Sandalwood tallow (made by Valobra) and barely scratch 1g/shave on those. They're triple-milled and you don't need much to get them going.
I'm curious to try the S1 at some point but man are these razors pricey. I figure with the wolfman I can get my money back very quickly if it doesn't work out. I love the look of them at least.
I have hard water.
I use more than enough to make sure I can face lather easily.
Hard water + more product.
I don't know if I go through soaps pretty fast. It's relative. I've never kept track before. Ever.
Like I said, no doubt in my mind I could have hit 60 shaves. It would have been another three long weeks for me though. I was getting a little bored with the same soap every single day. I don't eat the same food every single day, know what I mean. Doesn't mean I don't appreciate something decadent when I have it. King Crab and Champagne 40 days in a row would get old to me real quick too.
I don't intend to try and stretch my soaps anyway. I'm more interested in having a nice shave.
Seeing as I shave in the shower, I'm not exactly taking my time. A few extra swirls on the puck is faster to me than a few dozen extra swirls on my face trying to build my lather to the consistency I want it.
The rare occasion that I do lather in a bowl at the sink I probably use half of what I do in the shower. Lather bowl wouldn't be practical in the shower. It would get soupy pretty quick with the water running and all.
I don't know how much other people use or how they prefer their lather to be.
I wasn't trying to stretch it or see how fast I could crush it either. Just making an observation to satisfy my curiosity.
My findings will in no way impact how I roll either. It is what it is. I spent too many years getting poor shaves and junky lather with carts, drug store boar brushes, cheap soap, cans of foam, and 4 week old or more cartridges.
I'm in it for the best shave I can get every morning. 5 or 6 days a week before work it needs to happen fast.
There is only one answer - www.tvbshaving.com. About $4 a puck plus shipping. I got 3 pucks awhile back for $15 shipped. Use code B&B10​ for 10% off.
I really thought I didn't.
Was surprised.
Are you sure Valobra is triple milled by the way? I've read conflicting stuff on the subject...
The key to the Wolfman wait list is to forget you're on it. Finally seeing an invoice in my inbox was a pleasant surprise.
