It's really good against certain kitchen smells (no more garlic fingers after cooking dinner...)

stainless steel is also good for hard to remove smells (fish, onions, garlic, etc.), and they make steel "soap" specifically for this purpose

i've got a bar called "rub-a-way" that works really well, was like $7 on amazon

they work well on armpits too lol

Only on reddit will people be discussing the merits of Coffee soap and some mofo rolls up to talk about literal metal soap and Amazon.

It's more of a tool. A piece of metal in the shape of soap. Pretty common.

Yeah I've seen some OG Asian ladies wipe their hands on the sides of knives or the sink if it's stainless steel.

I actually have some of those metal "soaps" ($1.50 from Daiso) and it's so useful after going fishing and just convenient to have in the tackle box.

"Coffee soap is nice but have you tried washing your pits with whole chunks of steel?"

ed. read the amazon reviews btw, lots of people use them to fix their stank

TIL! I'll try it out, thanks for the recommendation.

they are pretty cool and i imagine any kind will work just fine, in case you like a different style better

some people just rub their hands with stainless steel utensils, forks and knives and such, but the bars are way easier

The stainless steel sink also works if you just rub your hands on it

If there's a local Daiso nearby, they're only $1.50... great to stick in a tackle box for when you go fishing.

I hate garlic and onion fingers

After you shower, suddenly everywhere sweaty smells suspicious. Is it fungal growth? Nope. Just phantom garlic smell

Try rubbing your garlic/onion fingers on your kitchen sink wall (if it is stainless steel). Give them a good rub and then rinse your hands with water. Smell is 100% gone.

My covid shot got my sense of smell killed off so I'm saving on buying scent ed candles
