Uk shaving soap sellers?

[PetyPete]

Hello all,

I've stumbled upon this forum, which is great, but definitely biased to resource/products available in North America (I'm not complaining- honest!).

My question to all is:

Can someone point me to a decent UK based retailer for shaving soap?

Thanks, Pete.

Connaught Shaving is an excellent UK retailer. You might also want to check-out Shaving.ie in Ireland.

Or any of the direct online sites for DR Harris, Truefitt amd hill, Geo Trumper, and a lot more since you UK'ers hog all the good stuff

As the others say, connaughts is very, very good, as are shavingIE. Also I've found E-bay and the BST here is a good way of sorting out some good soaps etc. Also when ordering donr be afraid to ask for free soap, cream, scet samples. SO do and some dont.

Pete, if you live in London you're in a wet-shaver's paradise: Trumpers, Truefitt & Hill, Taylor of Old Bond St. and D. R. Harris all have retail establishments in the Jermyn St/Bond St. area.

Have you checked into our ShaveWiki yet? There are listings by country and city there as well: http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/Category:UK_Shaving_Supplies

Hello Pete and greetings from sunny Cornwall!

I get a lot of my stuff from Niven & Joshua. They have a great free post service and a 5% loyalty discount too!

Another place with a bit more selection is The Traditional Shaving Company. They have free UK post as well!

Hello Pete, Executive shaving in Glasgow is another one, executive-shaving.co.uk, but as others already pointed out you're a lucky guy who has all the stores in Jermyn St area.

http://www.executive-shaving.co.uk/ - One of the best companies to deal with. My order always arrives with our first post next day when I select First Class. There's also a 10% loyalty discount, you get the code in the box your order comes in.

I have had nothing but great experiences in the few times I have dealt with Connaught in the UK.

Fantastic - that was useful for me as well!
I just fixed a link on the first page - the one for Connaught Shaving had an extra " / " in the address, meaning it was sending users to a 404 not found page.

+1 one Exec Shaving. Superb range of products and a very friendly lot to deal with. Have used them several times.
