As I reported elsewhere I received a puck of barbershop soap here a while back from a good friend. I found a barber Shop mug for it and this morning gave it a go with a Omega #48 Boar. This is the Original Scent. Nothing fancy just a good clean scent. Great lather and a wonderful shave. It was a very easy soap to use with the Boar brush. I used the same method I use with all soaps and had plenty of good later. I am not sure how long ago they stopped making this stuff, but if you get a chance to buy a puck I say go for it. Fuzzy

I really like this soap. I have a few more shaves with it now, and it is an excellent soap. Extremely easy to lather, and very slick. My original opinion seems to still be correct.

Fuzzy - the BarberShop mug is quite a large mug - certainly it has a larger diameter base than a standard mug. Is the puck of soap itself larger also to fit the mug, or is it the size of a Williams puck??
I would like to know what to keep my eyes peeled for.
thnx doooood!

The only thing I don't like though is it feels kind of light, like an easily breakable porous china. I would be happier if the material was heavier and stronger feeling.

I found this mug and unused puck of Barbershop soap recently at a flea market. The soap is really good, so similar to the vintage Williams soap that I can't hardly tell them apart. A few days later I found the matching brush to complete the set.

I need to get a brush. I have the razor/brush stand now also. That brush is next on my list.
