STRAIGHT EDGE — Shaving Soap
The blade has no patience for hesitation.
Straight Edge is the Apothecary’s discipline made tangible—sharp lines, clean intent, and the refusal to hide behind illusion. Where others dull ritual with fragrance theatrics, Straight Edge cuts through the noise. It is the embodiment of precision: steady hand, controlled pressure, nothing wasted.
At the bench, oils, tallow, and mango butter are tempered by heat and brought to heel. The mixture becomes dense, high-structure lather—slick, protective, willing to stand between skin and steel yet never interfering with the work of the blade. Nothing here foams for show. Nothing here is factory fluff pretending to be soap. This is true lather: functional, honest, efficient.
The fragrance is deliberate, not decorative. A bright flash of bergamot strikes first—clean as a fresh cut. Crisp herbal greens and cool eucalyptus follow, clearing space in the senses the way a whetstone clears steel. Cedar and vetiver settle at the finish, grounding the ritual in wood and earth, like the calm that exists only after a decision has been made.
Straight Edge does not seduce.
It commands clarity.
Each small batch is poured, cured, and judged by the Apothecary’s exacting standards before release. The full-size vessel offers the proper arena for a disciplined lather—room to load, room to work, room to sharpen ritual into mastery.

Absolutely beautiful brush. What a great idea to be able to pick components to customize your brush. Rich always is trying to figure out new ways to serve his customers. I have several of his brushes and they are all great.
Great quality. I would purchase again.
Quality, form, and function are all fantastic. Fits perfectly in your hand while working up a good lather. Mine came with a greater amount of red coloration compared to the silver and in my opinion makes the piece look stunning.
These bowls are absolutely incredible!!!
Stunning bowl. Great lather. Rich worked with me to swap out the item I preordered for a newer, in stock item, which was awesome. Medium is pretty big, wouldn’t go any bigger. The bowl looks as good in real life as the pics!
