Anyone tried these shaving soaps?

Noticed these huge 180g pucks for $9. Has anyone tried them before?

Yes. I've got one. Short answer: do not buy!
@alfredus would agree with me.

The long answer: It smells good. At least mine. But it doesn't lather. I purchased one when I just started DE shaving and thought it was mine lathering technique. But not. It simply doesn't lather. Yes, you still can shave after trying to load a brush for no less than 2 minutes, but why bother? Shaver Heaven is just slightly more expensive, but it's much better.

My brother said the same thing about a month ago Short answer: do not buy!

Unless you are looking for a bath soap

If you are looking for a shaving soap - do not buy
