    This is counterintuitive. Doing this to a feather blade for "Smoothness" is like taking a Katana sword and making it dull on purpose so you can use it as a kitchen knife, instead of finding a good kitchen knife. In my opinion it's better to find a blade that exactly fits your skin, your shaving style, and your safety razor.

    Awesome clip!! . Hello from Auckland , New Zealand I also went to safety razors and havent looked back.I was self taught to shave in a disposeable world with mass produced gels, foams and cartridge razors. as I got older I found the way I was shaving wasnt doing my face well and that the foams and gels were doing funny things to my face . I found the cartridge razor moisturising strips made the facial hair grow back corse. I use the King C Gillette safety razor. The Wilkinson sword blades in the black pack are the best for me . Safety razor shaving takes a few shaves and a lot of 'friendly fire' on the face to learn the finer art of this more traditional way to shave. I find its always good to clean the whole razor with a creme cleaner under a hot tap pre shave and let it soak in a hot sink for a good few minutes . a good pre shave face scrub with Loreal Charcoal to open the paws in a shower is great prep . I also find that a razor pit is a good investment to take the arris off the blade pre and post shave . The razor pit most certainly helps the longetivity of the blades as well. For me Palmolive olive oil and aloe vera soap does the business. It lathers really well . the Olive oil in the soap gives the blade the fat content it needs to have good shave and good cut on the skin. Its funny how old school shaving is making a comeback these days . Yep we are all turning into our Grandad's with shaving brushes and soap ,hahaha . Im now subscribed to your channel!!

    I’m somewhat new to DE shaving but I gotta say, my face couldn’t handle shaving that length of beard without some blade buffeting. My feeling is those long strokes and not rinsing often could be hampering the razors performance. I also have great results using a pre-shave. Great video! I hope you’re back to 100% soon! Thanks for the content.

    In these Inflationary Times. HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs Use any hard Bar Soap, Tallow or Glycerin based Soaps out there? To fit in any Mugs or Cups? Like" (Mitchells' Wool Fat or Arko Sticks. Just to name a few of them?) You can mix and match your old Soaps? Cut up the soap on a paper plate, pour your soap chunks with the shavings from the Paper Plate into a Mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, and microwave your soap. For about a minute or so? Place a paper plate under your mug in case it bubbles out of your cup? If it foams up, STOP. The water keeps it from burning itself up. (DON'T OVER WATER YOUR SOAP??) Easy, does it? Let cool don't want to Crack the Mugs or Cups you're using? (You just want it to Congeal in your Mug or Cup') it is very hot and watery'''''. let it cool in . PLACE'. after it cools, put it in a Sunny Window, until the Soap hardens? When using your soaps, use Dry Brush Less Water. It thickens the soap, making it easier to use on your face. Save your Money, spend it on your wife, don't listen to the shave Mafia. It saves me time and Money. Happy New Year. Your Mileage may vary? Wheelchair Larry
