I have a bottle that's about 75% full for sale if you're interested. Wink It smells better than the soap IMO.

The, "What the Puck," formula is new and I hear it is really good, and it is supposedly a hard soap. I'd be interested to hear what others think that have tried their new stuff.

I have some incoming. I'll report when it gets here.

It is, but it's bundled with the soap. I would separate it if you were interested.

I have the blue version of that soap. I really like it. The scent is a bit medicinal but the performance is really good.

So Italian Barber had the big Black Friday sale and among other items I picked up all three of the What The Puck favors. Have not shaved with them yet but I did do a test Palm lather with the blue. Initial report is that this seems to be a very good soap. Scent strength is about mid-range. Puck is hard as you would expect from a triple milled soap. Loading was easy and building the lather was quicker than my average. The lather I got was an in-between of the creamy type and the merengue type. Looked good to me. Residual slickness seemed more than adequate. Scent was weaker in lather than off the puck but still very present. Residual scent was pretty weak as expected. Pretty responsible soap it appears, especially at the price.

First shave on the Razorock Blue barbershop and Wow! Let me share that my favorite soap are anything Valobra. I value slickness over all else (thus still use Williams on occasion) but recognize that there are many amazing makers out there that I love and respect and own. I bought these Razorock soaps because the Black Friday deal was just too good to pass up and I always need a soap or two around for gifting to friends and family who are learning there is more to life than Gillette Fusion. I have hard water and lather suffers occasionally due to that fact. This soap had no issues with hard water. I used an Ubersoft knot and face lathered. Loading was quicker than usual off a hard puck (it's triple milled) and face lathering was faster than average too. This soaps not thirsty like stirling but I did add significant water. Lather was thick and shiny. Razor was a Gillette new long comb with a #2 Polsilver blade. I did not shave yesterday so there were significant whiskers. First pass showed great cushion and excellent slickness. Rinsing in prep for second pass revealed tons of residual slickness. Second and third passes revealed the protection the soap offered AND rewarded me with scent that did not fade as often is the case. Final rinsing showed the slickness to be about as persistent as Stirling to rinse off. Finished with an alum block to see what my skin thought and found no sensitivity issues. I perposfully left out the post shave routine of applying Shea butter to find what post shave felt like. The soap left me a bit tight but no worse than some other top tier soaps leave me. Post shave scent is present but weak but during lathering and the shave I found it plenty strong and very pleasant. This one says Barbershop but I find it to be,a pretty well crafted scent in the fougere category. Think old school aftershave. I dig it. So are there better soaps out there. Yes. But none of them do it so well for so cheaply. These soaps are good value and great performers. Shea butter solves any post shave feel this soap leaves.

I carry the RR shaving stick in my travel case and (for me) it works better anyother shaving stick I have had. I jamed it into one of those plastic twist tubes and it works like a charm. Nice smell, easy to lather, stable lather and pretty slick. I try not to ask too much more from an incredibly inexpensive shaving stick that has done better than the rest.
