A Xmas gift from my nephew with the pocket knife razor , I was surprised that it performs as well as the Valobra Regular, easy thick slick cushiony lather. Generous sized container too.

 

[davidsilva]

I am more impressed with this soap as the month marches on, a first class shaving soap!

 

[Ryanshh]

I recognize that I am early to this, and it seems to have died out a little bit, but I am planning on doing FFFMM during March and at the suggestion of Pepin...I have joined this thread as well. Happy Soapy Monogomy.

Welcome aboard.

 

[Boghopper]

I’m with Ryan. I’m doing the FFFMM.
Soap: Grooming Dept La chypre conifere, aka The Donkey.

 

[RTM]

I used Boreal by Tallow&Steel starting February 3 - the day the mailman brought it in - for the whole month. Since it was few days short - I cannot claim completion. However, I've taken up FFFMM, so I am checking in here too. I really like T&S performance and the scent reminds me of childhood - freshly cut pine tree with "tears".

So for March '19:

Soap: Tallow&Steel Boreal

I'm in for April 2019. 3017ing my Mahagony. I think I have about 2-3 more months with it (even though I am massively overloading it and have no chill when it comes to using up product). Last month was my first time officially doing the club but my third month since starting at the end of 2017 with only using one soap. Good experience, it is amazing how quickly I can get a usable lather with this soap now.

Oh, btw, happy (almost) 5 year anniversary to the club.
