It sure is both a great soap and a great deal! I have a lot of TFS soaps and a few of their aftershaves, they make quality products which i always count among my favorites.
The only one I am not totally fond of is the Uncle Walter soap (more like a cream or VERY soft soap), it performs very well, but the scent to me smells like a high quality Arko. Think an upscale urinal puck scent. Yes, I'm exaggerating a bit, but it's the only way I can think of describing it.

Hi nffclsr thats funny - YMMV I suppose. I have Uncle Walter and I like it. I'm going to start sniffing those urinal pucks a little closer I wonder how they lather? I don't have Farink or the wizard one but if they ever come down to $4.99 I would buy them in a heartbeat. I think they are great performers and have a very subtle, complex scent to them (other than urinal puck).

I have all of them and I really like them. Notice that they have different formulations, so you might notice some small differences: Hercules contains jojoba oil, the two 70th anniversay soaps have argan oil, while Uncle Walter has juniper fruit oil. All these oils are good for the skin and improve the quality of the shaving!

Hey Marko I have the 70th soap and agree with nffclsr -it is in fact very good stuff!
