Two months in. I can no longer load from the holder. The remains go in the bottom of the scuttle. Probably close to 2 weeks left.
My Guess... 3017

Two months in. I can no longer load from the holder. The remains go in the bottom of the scuttle. Probably close to 2 weeks left.
Today was my 100th shave with a puck of Franklin Barbershop vintage tallow soap. Performance continues to be very fine and there is plenty of life left in this puck.
2.5 months shaving daily? That's impressive for a 50g soap. I'm 6 shaves in with mine, hope to see a good yield from it, too. But I am targeting around 35-40 shaves from a stick. I love La Toja!
...and I think I had a handful of shaves on this stick before starting March 31st.
Nice! I've pucked mine, as I do not like to use sticks. I think I consume more soap this way, but still running below $0.10 per shave, so really great value!
Yes, and given that I paid €1.64 (<$2), I’m at about 3 1/3 cents per shave!

Show off.
I remember at the height of my use it like you hate it days, I managed to average $1.06 per shave for one soap.
Yes, $1.06.
$1/day... Gaaaahhhhh!!!

These days I can’t use them up fast enough. My tin of PdP was $15 and I have about 120 shaves on it. I should be making up on the value with this one.
Saponificio Bignoli cost me around 7p a day (I have a spread sheet) which I consider good value.
Now moving onto WSP Rustic Olympus. I love the scent on this soap and I've used it before so know I like the performance aswell. By the looks of it I average just under 1g per shave and have 87g left so it should be a good few months for me. My largest project yet!

As long as this jar of MdC is lasting its going to owe me money by the time its done.
Still trying to catch up with this thread.

Think I have about 1-1 1/2 week of shaves left on the TOBS St Jermyn Street.
Going slower than usual cause i have only shaved my face the past three weeks, (no headshaves).

Jermyn Street soap is one of the best soaps I have used, hands down. Savor that last week and a half.
I am working my way through a brick of Vitos super coco and I swear someone sneaks in and and adds just a little bit to the puck at night while I sleep. At the beginning I was using about one gram a shave and over the last month I have been averaging less than 0.4g per shave. I have 466 shaves on it so far and I have not reached the half way point yet. At $9.95US this might be biggest bargain in terms of cost per shave that I have tried yet.
Once the Vitos is finished I will pick one of the 58 remaining (unused) soaps and 3017 that one. I will probably pick a smaller/softer one for the next victim but I figure I have at least a year or maybe two before I have to pick the next soap.

I have only used a sample of this stuff for a week or two, but it is some of the best soap I’ve ever used.
i assumed you were loving the lathers and chimed in my support.
This will be an epic kill!
Still working on the Bayolea. The ring was getting harder and harder to load, so I grated the last 30 grams into a tub. Easier to lead and much better results with it. I'm guessing I'll get thru June with this.
Might have overestimated how many shaves the last centimeter of La Toja would provide...
