Soap - Arko Shave Stick (made in Turkey)
Razor - King C Gillette Safety Razor
Blade - Gillette Platinum (2nd use)
Brush - Synthetic Yaqi Moka
Post - Tea Tree Witch Hazel
Balm - Prorasso Green Tea and Oat
EDT - Acqua di Gio

Comment: My first time using Arko... found out what everyone has before me, very good slickness, strong citronella scent. The fumes from the scent did sting my eye a bit. I've found this on a few soaps, Arko is now one of them, the Weleda shaving cream causes my eyes to sting even more. It is true the scent is polarising... I am in the group that doesn't enjoy it. It did a good job shaving and built a nice lather. KCG razor is a nice mild shave, I like it.

( Wilkinson Sword Premium (TTO) Razor + Shave Stick Week.)

Greetings,

A new shave set up to start the weekend...Another wonderful performance from the Nivea Men trio, It's been some time since i last used the Wilkinson sword Classic blades and forgot what a good balance of sharpness and smoothness you get from them. They definitely are not as sharp as the Indian & Chinese Gillette WS, but they perform with enough efficient & smoothness with good acceptable shaving results.

The Wilkinson Sword razor & blade duo)worked well together mowing through my stubble with ease providing great audio feedback telling me its' cutting through my stubble.

A enjoyable 3 pass + pick ups close comfortable/near BBS shave with no errors to report...Finishing the shave off with small dollop of Nivea Men Creme.

My face is feeling smooth & smelling divine.

Stay safe, and enjoy the start of the weekend ladies & gentlemen.

Alpha Outlaw and Arko Shave Stick with Clubman Special Reserve.

Prep: Hot Shower
Soap: Arko Shave Stick
Razor: Alpha Outlaw
Blade: Dorco ST-301 (5)
Brush: Zenith S series
AS/EdC: Clubman Special Reserve

Just a nice Saturday shave. Smell like a Grizzled VET/Contractor, again, for the last time in the Middle East! I killed the bottle. The Cremo Stick is nice, but Arko is better. Had to dig through a box before I mailed it home to find an Arko Stick, and put the Cremo Stick in the box.

Wow! Thank you so much, would love any feedback including anything negative if you have any. I am very awkward so please forgive me.

It looked good. You didn't look awkward at all. However, on Ebay it looks like you can pick up Windsor Shave Sticks made there in Australia. Have you tried one of those? If so, how does it compare to the Arko?
