    I've used the shave stick and quite liked it. Your post reminded me that I haven't seen it since the bathroom was renovated....

    Yeah - both the stick and cream. Not bad but nothing to write home about, imo. Interesting scent

    Great for the price, actually - I hear it's dirt cheap in EU.

    I haven´t tried the soap.
    The cream is in my opinion very good. Softens the beard pretty good.
    Dirt cheap? That depends on where you buy it (at least in Berlin, Germany) because the price varies from store to store.
    I am glad that this cream is still produced in the old fashioned way/scent and available at a pretty low price.

    There are not many other creams that I know of which are as good as the Speick at this price-segment.

    Let me mention that I have not tested most of all the real expensive wonder-stuff that´s made in EU and mostly stick to creams and soaps at a price level of up to or around 10 € / 100 Gramm.

    Let me make clear that I'll take Speick over Proraso any day, and Proraso is more expensive, I think...

    For creams (and I don't have much experience with them) - I'd say KMF is about as effective, at least, and about as cheap - plus has some scent variety (I do like Speick's scent more than KMF, I must admit). I do find I prefer Trumper's creams though

    For soaps - I much prefer Tabac soap to the Speick stick I tried. Maybe I should give it another chance

    Cheers

    I haven't used their soaps or creams but I do use their aftershave balm which I think is excellent.

    I got a tube of Speick cream donated to me. Good stuff. I need to use it more!

    I used the Speick cream in a tube, interesting scent, worked well enough. Good for travel, too.

    I recently got the cream, soap and a/s lotion.

    The cream worked very well and has a nice "herbal" scent- very light. Its a good product, but I don't think I would call it a "must have" as I would say, Tabac soap. I think I paid something like $6-$7 for a tube plus shipping from Smallflower.

    The soap was functional, but nothing special.

    The a/s lotion is really nice. It leaves the face feeling soft and supple. The scent is light and won't clash with cologne. I'm using this a lot.

    Tried the cream for the first time this morning... possibly the most satisfying lather I've experienced. Definitely a keeper.
