Customer Reviews of Col. Conk World's Famous Shaving Soap, Almond (Net Weight 2.25 Oz)
Customer Review: Best shave I ever had
Summary: 5 Stars
You simply have to try this stuff! I tried it because I heard that some good, quality shaving soap would clear up razor burn and help with in-grown hairs and it's true. Just get a decent brush (don't spend too much on it - I spent $3.50 on a boar hair brush) and you're good to go. If you get the amount of water just right you'll find that the lather is better than any of the regular shave creams or foams or gels you can get down at the drug store. Plus, this doesn't have as much impact on the environment. I'm sick to death of plastic packages and cans of shave cream that don't always get recycled. This tub of soap comes in a little plastic container but lasts forever and you can recycle it at the end. I do wish it came in a paper or metal or glass container. I've used it every day for two months and I've only gone through about 3mm out of the 4cm deep bar.
Get the aftershave too. It's great stuff.

Customer Review: The Perfect Shave
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been on the quest for the perfect shave ever since I started shaving, which incidentally, is the day I realized I really didn't like shaving very much.
Combined with a Gillette Mach 3 Turbo razor, this soap gives as close to a perfect shave as I've ever experienced. Using this razor/soap combo, I am able to shave AGAINST the grain. I still use other shaving products for convenience, but when I really want a great shave, I reach for the Colonel Ichabod Conk.
By the way, the soap comes in a little plastic container that can be closed, so there's no need to put the soap in a mug or other container. This means it won't take up much space in your medicine cabinet.
Customer Review: Great for air travel
Summary: 5 Stars
We originally bought Colonel Conk shaving soap when liquid, gel or cream toiletries were suddenly not allowed in carry-on luggage onboard airplanes. We bought a shaving brush to go with it and my husband was really pleased with the result. Nice lather with a pleasant fragrance.
My husband flies very frequently, and when he's shaving at home he still sometimes uses the canned shaving gel, but even though toiletries under 3oz are allowed on airplanes these days he continues to carry Colonel Conk with him on the road instead of shaving gel or cream. I'd estimate he uses it about 4-5 days a week and at that rate one tub has lasted many months.
Customer Review: Best Shave Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
This glycerin shaving soap consistently gives me the best shaves I've ever had, and my wife agrees. I've tried just about every type of razor (both electrics and wet) and numerous shaving creams and soaps, and nothing compares to a good straight razor and this quality glycerin soap. The scent is also very pleasant, masculine and present, but not overpowering or alcohol-like. I can't wait to try the Bay Rum variety I also bought.
Customer Review: Solid shaving soap
Summary: 4 Stars
this is the second Colonel Ichabod Conk soap I have bought and I will definitely come back for more. A solid shaving soap which makes your face nice and slick for your razor to glide over and with a nice scent to it. The scent is not very strong and does not stay with you for very long but that's what aftershave / lotions are for anyway.
