So I cut up my milk bastile soaps.  The bars (not the tiny ones) in the photo are 3.5 inches x 2.5 in x 2 in.  I would usually cut them in half so that I'd have two 3.5×2.5×1 bars, but I wanted all the bars to have the same honeycomb on three sides.  So, I cut them into three 2.5×1.2×1.  Smaller bars, but I'd have more of them too if I wanted to give them away to more people. 

Anyway, the soap was still really too soft to cut.  I should have waited more, but that would require more patience. So they are bit sticky inside and had some sticking to the blade, like cutting through cheesecake.  I get more of the ammonia waft after I cut it, I'm sure that will mellow with time.  The non-gelled soaps had a little bit of liquid sweat on the bottom side.  Lick – slight zap, BUT I'm not rebatching this.  I'm going to chalk it up to non-gelling and I'm going to ignore it for right now and let it cure.  I'm hoping that it will absorb back into the soap and be just fine.  The gelled soaps show no sign of this lye sweating.  So they are now off to cure.
