The Puma's are a good quality blade. I don't think I've heard anyone complain about a Puma. Very nice shaver.

Yep, I get that and do the same often. I think you get a greater appreciation of the combination when you use for a week too.

Yes, saves me from standing in front of all my soaps trying to make a decision and also get a great appreciation for the gear I'm using. For me, it works!

This is a large reason why I stick to the same tub from whoa to go.
Really let’s me dial in a soap to perfection.
Speaking of which, I forgot to photo my empty PAA tub yesterday...
