The best hard puck shaving soap you can buy, the top two are easy, what else is there?

1. Vintage Williams
2. Arko
3.
4.

Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

It's like the blues, the best stuff comes from dead guys.

Tallow tabac? Like Williams it's no longer made that way, but it's still plentiful in the wild (probably more so than Williams, as they just switched to vegan the past few years). A polarizing scent, but the performance is top notch.

In that same vein, vintage Fine soaps also fit in that group. I'm very partial to their Lavender Por Homme scent, but I'm guessing the base is great in all varieties

I’ll put Tabac at #1. I haven’t tried Arko so I can’t comment. I’d put the iColoniali mango in there.  I don’t know what else. There’s several decent hard pucks but not many great ones.

I like the Godrej puck, especially in a vintage-style scuttle. One of the cheapest shave soaps in the world.

Pity it's so hard to come by in Canada.
I'd have to go to Amazon (over-priced) or Maggard's (across the border).

The scent of Godrej is a bit weird. It reminds me of "Snap" - that heavy-duty hand cleaner with pumice, which smells something like anise.
It may not be for everybody.

Too pricey for me, I'm cheap!
