I've always been a fan of Em's Place shaving cream but after trying Cremo I'm not sure I'll every try anything ever again.

Stirling for price and quality shave soap. T.O.B.S. sandlewood is my absolute favorite but not cheap so my second choice.

Asolute Favorite? Art of Shaving Sandalwood, hands down! Since I am not made of money, however, the nod goes to Captain's Choice these days. Sandalwood for the Fall/Winter and Bay Rum for the Spring/Summer. I tried the North...good, but not as good as the other two.

There are a few real soaps still sold for bathing though. I think dove and Irish spring are both real soap...maybe? I just get van der hagen from Walgreens. I don't want to spend the time trying to find what's real soap and what isn't. |

I just added a poll, thats a great idea tapered-pin, thanks!!! I just added the poll with as many of the most popular Artisan soaps I could think of. There are a bunch out there and this thread actually opened my eyes to a few I haven't tried yet that i want to try out. I want to try out Mikes Natural Soap, but I'm waiting on him to update his inventory. I want to try out the coconut. I did try out the Mitchells Wool Fat, I wasn't too impressed with the couple times I tried it, but maybe I just haven't dialed it in yet. he has trouble keeping up with all his orders but is a good guy |

Arko or Proraso sandalwood. Both lather up nice and make my whiskers easier to shave than any of the stuff in a can.

Latha shaving soap by Barrister and Mann. Comes in different scents and not expensive for an artisan soap. Works great in soft and hard water.

Right now I'm really enjoying Arko in the stick.
In the past, I was using an Uber lather I mixed up every AM with Soap Commander puck to which I added a dab of Cremo and 2 drops of glycerine. I bloom the Arko with a little hot water in my bowl while I brush my teeth. |

Yea, still Arko.
You ever look at that 12 pack and think you're never in a million years gonna use it all? About four years. And yea, it keeps just fine.
So yea, more Arko, cuz the Arko man's a fuckin pimp.

I've been a big Stirling fan since the beginning, but the price difference between Rod's stuff and the bigger brands is definitely narrowing. If it goes up much more, I may have to start looking for another supplier.
