The only stick ive found to be of use, was Erasmic red package. I spent almost two years using the various brands of sticks only to find erasmic right when it stopped production... spent over a year trying to find it, to no luck. As a result my only stick now is kept for christmas shaves.
Alot of bad ones as well. I tried almost all of them since i started DE shaving in 2014 and its scary how many were over hyped, or just mediocre like williams puck after a few shaves.
Jikoryen is a pretty good soap for the $$ too. Not much more than Arko and has better post shave performance.
I’m actually a fan of The Shave Den soap sticks. They never fail to lather well and come in lots of nice scents.
