What soap has the best container?

I can also handle big brush loads.
Sheesh JoWolf! What size knot is that on your brush?

A tad wider than mine methinks...

I do like big brushes. I recently knotted this brush and three others. US $29.85 26% OFF|Finest Two Band Chubby Fan Badger Hair Knots Shaving Brush Knots Shaving Brush Knots|Shaving Brush| - AliExpress - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000237641158.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.236a4c4dGmMEXf
I’ve yet to shave with it. Although 28mm he feels bigger than two 30mm brushes I have. I need six passes and clean ups. He might be up to the task. In their description they call it a chubby, I think they mean SHD.

I dislike the containers that declaration grooming comes in. The tub is a smaller diameter than the lid. Though is a minor thing, the other soaps in plastic tubs that come with both lid and tub of equal diameter are just more pleasing to me.

My whole hearted vote goes to the Tabac bowl.

Totally bogus
Soap Commander is cool. They used 6 ounces of soap, in an 8 ounce container...which is awesome because it gives you a lot of room to build a lather without overflowing everywhere.

Mitchell’s Wool Fat (MWF) gives you the option of purchasing their soap in a cool, ceramic, container with lid. And with the cool vintage design on the lid, it’s scha-weet.
 
I like to use mine... Convenient, same size, easy to store. Even Proraso is in these aluminum containers.

Nuavia’s now discontinued ceramic tubs are the best. Right behind is Tabac and MWF, then MdC. All the plastic tubs are nice. I think WK’s might be a little thicker plastic than the other artisans.

Barrister & Mann all the way! They are not only durable, but nearly impossible to cross thread. I can spin the lid open/closed with one flick of the wrist (as long as no soap is caked on the threads).

I absolutely need to update my old post here, since I moved from soft to hard soaps. My new favourite are the Captain Fawcett's wooden bowls, with gorgeous metal plates upon. These feature the Captain's logo beautifully engraved... :001_wub:
