The Obie Memorial First Tier Soaps and Creams Thread.

I read that De Verguld Hand has been in production for several hundreds years.

Your son is one up on me. I never knew shave sticks existed till I was almost 60 years old. I wish I had of known about them earlier as not only do they work so well, they are terrific for travel, imo. A real space saver with no chance of leaking in a travel kit.

Tom that is what I call a large gap in between soaps! But I will admit that if I was living on a budget and couldn't afford anything over 2$ you can't go wrong with Arko. There I said it Bob! I use MDC almost exclusively, but I would not be going without a good shave if I was using the Arko. I would just have to put a clothespin on my nose. Tc

Aw, the scent of Arko ain't all that bad especially if you grew up in a household where your mom used Sunlight bar soap. Washed my hand with it regularly growing up too.

When life gives you lemons make soap out of it to paraphrase an old saying.

My wife is a nurse, saw a stick of Arko with the red wrapper, had a sniff of it, and was certain it was a suppository that had somehow made it home from the Hospital......just sayin'....:-)

Well, I definitely have some stuff in-between.
I don't mind the Arko scent, personally.

I suppose since I learned how to use it, I am somewhat amazed by the result at the price point.
Sooo much better than lots of costly stuff, IMO.

Anyhoo, back to the top-tier, Gents!

[tcrideshd]

On my list if it didn't smell like it did, it would be top tier, cause every other aspect of Arko us great, so I really do put it in the 2cd tier, Tc

Those Canadian suppositories that big for a reason, Phrank?

No, just for most of us married guys, we're used to it, that's why we're still married...."Yes Dear, of course dear, you couldn't be more correct, I'm wrong again, and a thoughtless, selfish fool who is blessed to share the same air as you..."and never look them right in the eye, I hear it can provoke an attack.

OK, same course of action as for Grizzlies then.

Funny!

Sort of like: "Yes dear I do have too many shaving products in my one drawer in the bathroom."
