Hi all, I bought an old fashioned C&E scuttle off ebay recently, similar to this:
It's a nice looking object and I had a Neale's Yard soap puck that fits it quite nicely, so I'm using it on a daily basis. Sadly this particular soap is what is referred to in the trade as a load of old rubbish. It smells nice and is quite slippy but the lather is thin and brittle and tends to disappear midway during the shave.
As such, I'm looking to get something to replace it that is appropriately sized for use in a scuttle and I thought I would look to the wisdom of the forum for suggestions of suitable alternatives. I believe that C&E themselves have given up on the small sized pucks but there must be alternatives out there?
Any suggestions would be gratefully received. Also - I'd be interested to know if anyone else uses an old fashioned scuttle on a regular basis?
