    I like the C.O. Bigelow. It is relatively inexpensive and provides for a close comfortable shave. It does have menthol in it so I prefer to use it in the summer. I am not a fan of the Jack Black triple cushion as it tends to clog the blade. I cannot comment on the Anthony Logistics as I have not used it.

    I believe the C. O. Bigelow is the only one of those that is a traditional lathering cream, so that's the one I'd go for.

    Bigelow/Proraso is awesome stuff. If I had to say I had a go to cream this would be it. I have used Anthony Logistics in the past and as a stand alone it's OK, not great. If you use their facial cleanser, pre shave oil and after shave balm with it they make for a very good shave. This all comes in a package that runs about $50 - which is what I received as a gift once. While it's good and I like it I still would not give it a nod over Bigelow.

    Back when I was still rocking the Fusion, I loved using Anthony Shave cream, it was much better than the stuff I had been using. I haven't tried since I moved to making my own lather with the brush.

    I have tried all three:

    Bigelow: Great stuff (see the 4857430754390 raving reviews for it )
    Of the 3, this is by far the best product for the money, and it's the least expensive

    Jack Black: Ironically, NO cushion whatsoever. Lather was very dry and my razor skipped a lot. JB beard lube, however, is a good brushless product if you are in a rush.

    Anthony: Lather is decent, but the smell is very strange (IMO) once lathered. Of the people I know who use it, they say it actually performs better brushless.
    I'm sorry, I thought this was America!

    Proraso in the Bigelow green tube is very good. Menthol eucalyptus and one of the best lathering and shaving products around, also one of the best values for the money.

    . . . He went around back and into the basement because he was hungry. He ate cold beans out of a can and drank some water, and then he saw the small mirror Parker had bought with the razor and the can of lather. He looked at himself and knew he had to take a chance on staying long enough to shave. He shaved, and that made him feel better. . .

    Bigelow green has to be one of the most misunderstood creams out there by the general public who don't have brushes. Countless friends of mine have bought or received it as gifts and think it to be average because that haven't "brushed" it. I would choose the green tube over many other expensive creams each and every time.

    I just used the Bigelow "Green" tonight for the first time because I have been busy with British creams and soaps.

    Best one of them all. Sure the fancy stuff can smell nice but I cannot imagine any product giving you a better shave. If the cooling thing is not for you then Musgo is nice. They are my 2 favorites just now.

    What you have, is one superb product, and two products generally regarded as being mediocre to downright crappy.

    The Bigelow/ Proraso wins the fight with the first punch, in the first round. It's really no contest.

    I love Menthol, so Bigelow/ Proraso is a must have for my den!!
