    Does a Derby shave stick count? Isn't Arko with different branding? :)

    More or less. Like Miller versus Bud, only soaps in Turkey in this instance.

    27 days in- are you still enjoying the soap's performance? The Arko stick is my mainstay travel shave soap but I've never used it 27 consecutive shaves. Still fun?

    I genuinely like Arko. If it were the only soap I could buy, I'd be ok with it.

    Not really. All Shavettes require a bit of finesse.
