Hiya,
After waiting more than five years to try a stick, I finally broke down and jumped on the Shave Stick crazy train. Rode the rails every day for probably a few months, and came away a convert. Very easy way to lather up, once enough time's spent loading up my beard, Harder soaps obviously take longer than softer ones....sometimes over a minute of rubbing away.
As most of you know, any soap can be used like a stick. So even though I did use Valobra and Irisch Moos and a few others in their original form, most were soaps applied like a stick. Stuff like MWF, Rivivage, IK, Dr Dittmar, QED, TGQ, old Surrey, Sharon's hard soap, and a bunch of others. All of em worked really well for me.
Nice for a change of pace.
