    My daughter went to Germany a few years ago.
    I requested some shave soap.
    I got some Wilkinson in a tub from the German grocery store!

    Seems it is made in Germany?


    Hey! It's pretty good and refreshing stuff!

    We get the Wilkinson tub soap locally. It does not say where it is made but only imported by Schick Canada of all things. Mu guess id that you are right that it is made in Germany. I have heard it referred to as "the blue bowl of death" on another forum by a disgruntled user. For my part it seems just fine in use.

    I think the shave stick has better performance and is made in Solingen Germany. I think the great performance of the stick is down to it containing tallow, glycerine and lanolin. Very slick lather and leaves the skin feeling good.

    Well, I must confess that a grid was applied with a pile of glycerin.
    Nice stuff, anyway!
