Known for their Glycerine based shaving soaps, Colonel Conk Products is a supplier of a full range of wet shaving supplies including razors, shaving mugs, brushes, brush stands, and other products too numerous to mention. They are also the only authorized distributor of Merkur products in the US. 

And yes, there once was a Colonel Inchabod Conk.  As legend has it, after the Civil War he traveled to Albuquerque, New Mexico and began to date and eventually married a woman who owned several barber and hair cutting salons. After working with her he came up with the idea of packaging the products they were using every day and selling them across the nation.  Colonel Ichabod Conk Shaving Products was born and he became a wealthy man. The business continued until his death in 1898. The current Colonel Conk Products discovered his legacy, and decided to continue the legend.
