Back to the where I started in the beginning soap wise......

Filarmonica Especial
Retro DeLuxe 30mm ST
Tallow + Steel Classic
Karl Lagerfeld AS

Took a chance on this razor with lots of surface rust, however some honing on oil and water stones and voila - super sharp for a one pass shave (somewhat surprisingly). Probably old stock poorly stored, or the sharpening process is improving. The DeLuxe brush is massive, and interesting to load as takes large amounts of product to lather (no small containers need apply) and offers a soft experience.
