PS the Derby stick is excellent as well, IMO a touch slicker and less strongly scented, but a touch harder so less easy to load.
Less toilet puck, more contract air freshener

I'll wheel one of mine out for a Christmas Day shave.
I've not had success with the Cru Steel blades but may need to try the Damaskeene. Don't think I have yet as every time I try very vintage blades it's a disappointment. Blades are subjective to hair/beard type so I'm not knocking them at all.I was thinking of a New Years Day shave with a Damaskeene razor and an original Damaskeene blade. I was very lucky to find a pack of all good blades and have used the first one many times, which keeps coming back to sharp with a good stropping. Safety razor AND blade at more than a hundred years old. Now, that's a thing!
... of course the straight-edge folks are reading this and thinking "meh!".
