So far, I'm very impressed with Desmond's Barrow shaving soap after the first shave.  Thanks, Scritchnscrub for making this soap available to the community and thanks to Freddy for bringing it to my attention through his posts!  I face lather for my shaves and Freddy is right about the great consistency and face feel of the lather from this soap.  I'm looking forward to getting to know this soap better!
