Wholly Kaw vs Zingari - Slickest?

[FreeBlues]

I know this topic has been covered in a number of threads from a number of different perspectives. But, I'm looking for some specific opinions. I'm new to shaving soaps (have been using TOBS Sandalwood) and would like to go for the slickest available. For now, I couldn't care much about scents. Or cost.

So, for my next order, looking for the absolute slickest shave currently possible, between these two (only!) which should I order?

Have you considered getting a sample of each? Maggard Razors carries them.

I think the WK siero base is some of the best and slickest that I've tried, and i think even objectively speaking you can say this soap is pretty darn slick. Zingari is on my radar to try.

Siero is great, but i think zingari is just a notch better, plus i like their scents alot more.

Wholly Kaw is my pick of the two. Better lather, a little goes a long way, slicker and not as heavy. The scents are hit and miss but Frougere Bouquet is fantastic. Zingari didn’t really do it for me.

If slickness is the deciding characteristic then Zingari.

I think Wholly Kaw is slightly slicker but not by much. But overall, value/scent/performance go to Zingari

Zingari Is great stuff

Wholly kaw siero base is significantly more slick than zingari man explorer in my experience. In fact I have found zingari man explorer underwhelming in every metric compared to most of the soaps that are spoken of highly in the forums nowadays. Its scent is weak and not particularly memorable.

An overall better soap the Siero. Much more dense.

I prefer Zingari on slickness, but have only used the Siero base a couple of times. The value is absolutely better with Zingari.

 

[agrippas]

Both are great

Consider trying also Declaration Grooming Milksteak.

Even better than both.

They’re so close, I would chalk up any difference to being within sample error.

Batch inconsistencies would account for bigger differences.

I think they’re both a bit overpriced, actually.

I totally agree. I would choose the ZM because it comes cheaper with 5oz product.

Also, slickest vegan formula ever is Southern Witchcrafts. Damn I dropped the brush with alum on my fingers. That is insane.
