Hi everyone.
@Pinto90 recently posted that Arko shaving sticks and pucks may have been discontinued as they do now show anywhere on the Evyap (company that makes Arko) web site. While this is true, and has been the case for a while, it's unclear if the shaving sticks and pucks are still in production. The sticks are shown briefly on a corporate video (produced in 2019) and in the Turkish language Evyap PDF catalog (link to thread with all this below). The pucks are not listed in the catalog.
As we doubt that there will ever be an announcement should Arko shaving soap be discontinued, perhaps the best way to track this is to share the manufacturing date on your latest Arko shaving soap order. All the individual sticks and pucks have a manufacturing date printed on them. My latest order of 12 Arko sticks, from last year, had a June, 2023 manufacturing date. That confirms they were in production less than two years ago.
If you have ordered any Arko shaving soap sticks or pucks in the past few months, please post the manufacturing date on this thread. That will help everyone understand how recently they have been produced.

Interesting Evyap (makes Arko) Corporate Video (in English)
In my case, most artisan soaps irritate my skin due to the fragrance, even though they are packed full of skin goodies. The industrial detergent scent used in arko is likely the culprit of inflaming and drying out my skin. It's especially evident when I get growth coming through in the evening...
