Hey Ruds... just wanted to take a minute and sincerely thank you for the awesome video and feedback. Truly humbled! Thanks everyone here as well for the kind words! Definitely unexpected and appreciated! We'll keep working hard to bring you nice products. :)
I ordered the Crann Bethadh soap on Thursday, just waiting to try out the new kid on the block. After watching this video, I can't freakin' wait to receive it! Thanks for the review, Ruds!
@@dendj55 Wow. Surprisingly good. You were right about the slickness. I wasn't too crazy about the scent out of the tub, but once added with water and lathered, the scent definitely opens up. Right after the first shave I ordered a tub of Mandate from Heaven. Bonus points for the packaging! I'm curious if anyone has tried the aftershaves yet.
Murphy & McNeil is my favorite shaving soap manufacturer. Their Ouroboros is my favorite scent so far. I also have the Bad Mor and like it a lot as well. Looking forward to buying the Trinity and some others in the future.
I bought something from Murphy and McNeil on their ebay store. They sent me two . 5oz samples of Kells and Green Man. The Green man's a Fougere and one of the best I've smelled 😍👍💈💈💈
This soap is absolutely Amazing. I have never had a soap that's so smooth it's like silk when I face lather. Ruds, if you do a 2018 overall review I would vote Murphy&McNeil "Rookie of the Year! Thanks for turning me on to these guys, cuz I like everything about the shave I just had.
Great video, highlighting products that I'd not yet heard of. The scent description alone is enough for me to want to purchase it! The 94 score is truly impressive for first time out. Also, loving that Turn n Shave brush you used!
I'm so glad to see you enjoyed it my friend. Billy and I are teaming up for a collaborative effort. A Reyes Restorations custom that pairs this scent with his beef tallow and duck fat formula
Great to see Murphy & McNeil getting quite a bit of attention lately. I like that they sell used products and their customer service is excellent. Soap base is very good and am looking forward to trying their Duck Fat base as well.
In my experience with them the customer service ranks with the best out there. Prompt order processing, quick communication and responsiveness to further inquiries.
@@dendj55 the soap's are in my top 5. Slick slick slick!! The best post shave I have had in years... can feel it for hours! I have I think 5 different offerings. Super people as well! Thanks Jason
Hi Ruds, Thanks for always providing excellent and insightful reviews of shaving soap creations by new artisans. You are always spot on, especially with this new artisan Murphy and McNeil. I have been using their soaps since your review and really like their amazing Triskele (barbershop) soap and their Crann Bethdah (verbena+) soap. I can’t wait to try their other offerings and would not have heard of them but for your review, so thank you!
*Dammit Ruds...!!!* *We got into wet shaving to be able to SAVE MONEY, and you keep finding this GOOD SHIT.* 😁 *I see two of their soaps, I've just gotta try out.*
Hi Ruds- Great shave and review of this new artisan soap maker; thank you! Familiarity with your soap rating system is a huge help in being able to understand what a soap is like. I also meant to mention that the Filarmonica 13 you used in the previous video looked great! Hope your weekend is going well and all the best!
Great shave Ruds! My only disagreement with you is the low structure part but the water hardness will affect the volume and this is probably why I do get more volume. For the first offering from this artisan, the performance is surprising. Well done to Murphy and McNeil!
Nice to see that you did a review on this one. It was first brought to my attention by Yost to coast and the labeling alone caught my attention immediately. I know you can't judge the contents on that aspect alone, but I like to think that there's a good chance the same amount of quality/effort is put into the product as well. The review I watched left me feeling as if there was much more to offer, so I pulled the trigger and now I have a tub of 'Mandate of heaven' waiting for pick up. :)
Hah! Nearly bought some samples last week and was going to ask if they were on your radar so I could send you what was left. I’ll let you know if I do. Based on your score, that’s it’s Aventus (I don’t own a dupe but I love the scent), and the art, I’ll have to break my Talbot only rule for the year.
your shave score here is 94, but in your doc file its 95, have you updated the score after reconsideration or have they introduced new base which is tad better?
Thanks Ruds nice to see another new artisan and one that gets such a high score right out of the gate...i'm at the website already checking out their products.. Was that a fatboy you were shaving with?
got a few samples in, WOW is all I can say about the slickness...but you were totally right to watch the load ( I'd call this more of a croap it's that soft)!!
Hey Ruds... just wanted to take a minute and sincerely thank you for the awesome video and feedback. Truly humbled! Thanks everyone here as well for the kind words! Definitely unexpected and appreciated! We'll keep working hard to bring you nice products. :)
Thank you for taking time to comment. Congrats on the early success.

I'll be anxious to hear your thoughts.

I didn't know of them until 2019 but they are certainly in the lead by a wide margin for 2019 breakthrough artisan. Thanks as always for your support.

Thank you sir. M&M is a great bang for your buck too. It performs amazingly and is priced very well.
Just ordered this soap. Wow the scent is fantastic. Can’t wait to use it today. Thanks Ruds
This is my most used scent in the last 6 months. I love it to.
I'm so glad to see you enjoyed it my friend. Billy and I are teaming up for a collaborative effort. A Reyes Restorations custom that pairs this scent with his beef tallow and duck fat formula
WHAMMY.
I am eager to check this out!
A truly phenomenal soap, I thoroughly enjoyed it
Thanks Ruds. What a fantastic first at bat! Keep up the great work.

Another great shave Ruds, and another set of soap samples ordered for me! Can't pass up a 94 rating.

I'm glad you reviewed this. I've been eyeing it and now I will definitely buy! Impressive score.
I'd love to hear back with your thoughts.
Thanks for the video.... couldn’t agree more 😄
It is always good to hear folks are having similar experiences with products.
*Dammit Ruds...!!!*

No chit!! I trying to figure out how to put Jason on my taxes...itemized of course!! A 94 out the door...damn!!
Resistance is futile lol. Thank you.
fantastic review Ruds! This soap base look amazing!
Thank you sir.
Wow, didnt expect that! Very Impressive.
I was quite surprised myself.

Thank you, I am really glad the rating system is helpful. I was fortunate to win that Filarmonica in a PIF giveaway. It's a beautiful razor.
Time to check them out!
You need to!
It's closed...

@@ginah7479 SHUSH your beautiful mouth!
Wow, 94 - huge score.
I have Noble Otter, Wholly Kaw and Declaration Grooming at the top of my list at the moment. Gonna get a couple from these guys.
All strong performers at the top of your list. I imagine you won't be disappointed with Murphy & McNeil either. Thanks fro your support.
Sounds ike it's right up my alley, I love Aventus. Nice Shave Score for a first introduction from an artisan.
Anxious to see a Jill review 😊
Well, you sold me. Trinity smells great and performance is top tier. Another I will have to buy. I should have never tried the sample.
Nice one .... 94 wow ~! Kit
Thanks Kit.
Great shave Ruds!

I'm looking forward to hearing if your experience is the same as mine. Thank you as always.
Nice review Ruds
Thank you I appreciate it.
Impressive for just out of the gate.
Yes indeed. Thank you for your continued support.
Hah! Nearly bought some samples last week and was going to ask if they were on your radar so I could send you what was left. I’ll let you know if I do. Based on your score, that’s it’s Aventus (I don’t own a dupe but I love the scent), and the art, I’ll have to break my Talbot only rule for the year.
You definitely need to try this soap base.
Hey Ruds, Great review my friend. I do have a question though, what is your thoughts on the scent an the strength of it my friend!
Definitely the lighter side of mid.
Ruds Shaves that’s what I thought , I believe all of his soaps are like that
your shave score here is 94, but in your doc file its 95, have you updated the score after reconsideration or have they introduced new base which is tad better?
Different bases. 94 is tallow only, 95 is tallow and duck fat.
Thanks Ruds nice to see another new artisan and one that gets such a high score right out of the gate...i'm at the website already checking out their products.. Was that a fatboy you were shaving with?
Gillette Slim adjustable actually.
Saw that after I uploaded...thanx. Btw, Bill at Murphy and McNeil was very helpful. wonderful people
got a few samples in, WOW is all I can say about the slickness...but you were totally right to watch the load ( I'd call this more of a croap it's that soft)!!
