Thread: Arko Shave Stick

Gentlemen:

The past couple days I have shaved with Arko shave stick and been surprised with its overall quality. This is an inexpensive shave stick Turkish barbers use. I'm sure you've seen videos of these barbers in action. The lather is quite good. So are the cushion and glide. The clean and refreshing fragrance sings of old time barbershops. Oh, the fragrance is hearty.

Rather than use it as a stick, I sliced it into little medallions, much in the way one would slice a sausage, and stacked it into a shave mug. The soap is no Mitchell's Wool Fat or Provence Sante Verlaine, but it's good for what it is. You certainly can't beat the price for Arko shave stick. Tulumba and Shoebox shave shop have it. I'll give this one a thumbs-up.

Regards,

Obie
