De Vergulden Hand shave stick

I enjoy shave sticks and when I ordered my MdC the outfit had a special on these De Vergulden Hand shave sticks. Needless to say I got a couple of these. Was going to use it for tomorrow's shave but touched up a razor today and could not resist trying it out.

The stick is a little harder than Arko, smells a bit like lemon herbal but not overpowering and comes in a good looking retro style and colour container. Pretty good initial impression. It lathered up easily and produced a very nice lather. If you like the Palmolive, Speick, LEA, Tabac or Arko sticks you might like this one too. No problems with the shave. A good solid performing shave stick that fits right in with the rest of them.

Yea, thought the holder was kinda cool too. The stick has two flats front and back, like if you take a cylinder and press it just a bit between two flat surfaces if that makes sense.

You are welcome. I know a few guys on here like their shave sticks even though they don't seem to get much love generally. I really like them for travel in particular. Vergulden Hand is also available as a puck in a container.
