Thank you! Your explanation of how to load the blade is SO helpful - especially the "pinch" at 8:20. Love your positive attitude in your videos!
Good Morning, Mark! Thank you for posting this about the Rex Supply Konsul razor. Very nice, indeed!
Thank you, Beth. So glad you enjoyed this video. Have a great day.
The Rex razors are true works of art. I was Phoenix, AZ last week and visited Razor Emporium while I was there and wished I had the extra money to spend on a Konsul. Unfortunately I didn't at the time of being in the store, but I'm hoping to possibly have one of my own some day. Happy to see you have one Mark and hope it brings you plenty of joy for years to come!
Very kind of you to say, Jacob. Many thanks.
Wow great shaving Razor!
cool razor, nice video Mark !!!
Hi Mark- Great walk-through on the Konsul razor; thank you! Looking forward to the full shave video ahead. I was a bit late viewing this week’s MMMB, but thank you for the shout-out on the produce bands! Enjoy the rest of the week. Be safe and be well. Best regards, as always, Mark!
My pleasure, Mike. Thaks agian for sending along the bands. The Konsul review will run next week. Have a great wwekend!
Looking forward to your review Mark. It is a beautiful razor.
Hey Mark. I too had a problem with loading the blade in the Konsul at first also. I ended up using the metho that you showed. I can see where this would put off a lot of people and would discourage them from using this wonderful razor. Putting it in the handle was tough to keep the blade centered on top of the handle while fishing the head through the blade to tighten the bottom knob. If someone can do this fine, not me. I talked to Matt about this loading problem and suggested he have the alignment bars placed on the handle and the recession space on the cap. I have gotten use to this method and no longer have any problem.
I use my Konsul about once a week and just love it.
Take care and thank you for passing this info along.
John, it appears you stumbled upon this blade loading solution as did I and JimiV. It's a good workaround. So far, I'm very impressed with the razor. And the very slight modification needed to load a blade is certainly not a deal-breaker. Thanks for confirming how wonderful this razor is.
Congratulations on the Konsul, it’s beautiful for sure:) the second method is definitely better for loading the blade, you know for sure it’s seated correctly.
RK, agree. Plus, I've gotten used to it and it's become second nature.
Thanks for the advice on loading the blade. I have not found many, if any, guidance on that issue.
My pleasure, but check out how Matt from Razor Emporium does it. He demonstrated how he loads the blade at the Maggard Meetup: ua-cam.com/video/6P9XNWLZ6GE/v-deo.htmlsi=Q4JAcCfD5akY8WW1&t=2321
That is one cool razor. I am waiting to take shipment on a Rex Ambassador. It should be here in a few days.
Man, I really want one of these.
The left side of my brain wants that razor but the right side of my brain says "are you crazy, you're retiring in 16 months.
🙂🙂🙂
I have the Rex ambassador xl very happy with it
Hi Mark that’s a nice looking razor. I own a Rex Envoy which I am delighted with and the inspector who checked mine was EM. If I was younger and was going to get many years of use or had a son to leave it to I would buy one.
Keep well and keep safe.
Nice video. Beautiful razor. All the Rex razors look very beautiful but too expensive for me. I realy don’t need a slant anyway. I will stick to my current razors. I am looking forward to the shave review of the Konsul.
Good video
I need a second job with this hobby. Lol.
:):):)
Ditto! 😂😂😂
Hi Mark that’s a lovely looking razor. I have an Envoy which I a,m delighted with and if I were younger and was going to get years of use or had a son to pass it down to I would not hesitate.
I’m sure I registered my Envoy but do you know how I can check.
Keep well and keep safe.
Yes indeed! As we chatted about, loading the cap with a flexed blade has become 2nd nature. Fast and accurate! I load the Konsuls and the Ambassadors the same way. No possibility of blade shift and boom, it's locked in.
I can't say enough good things about the Konsul. 3-2-1 and done! 😊
JimiV, thanks again for confirming this blade loading technique. It was a very big help in preparing this video. Greatly appreciated.
I will have to try that method the next time I use my Konsul, as inserting the blade always irritates me. I love the end results attainable with the Konsul, but the ergonomics just aren't as good for me as my Ambassador or my Envoy XL. I've said before that the perfect razor would be the Ambassador with the 3.5" XL handle and the shaving comfort and efficiency of the Konsul without the slant. Anyway they are all good razors although too expensive, and the stand is way too big and stupidly priced and I'd never buy one. I got some cheaper aluminum stands on Amazon instead.
Chris, loading the blade by pinching it into the cab has become second nature for me. Very easy to do. I'm enjoying the Konsul razor. I also thoroughly enjoy using my Envoy. I agree, they are all very good razors
I want to pick up a Rex, but I am not sure which. I look forward to your review.
All I have to do is edit the video review and get it posted.
If you like blade feel, get the Ambassador. If you don't want any blade feel unless you crank it up, get the Konsul. 😃
Mark - much has been said that removal of the blade in the Konsul is difficult. Have you had any problems with this and if so, how have you solved the problem?
Wally, if I recall correctly, there have been a few times when the blade adheres to the cap. I don't think it's happened that often and pretty much depends on the blade. Some blades, I guess, have a slightly tighter fit then others. In all honesty, I'll have to shave with it again and make a note if it happens. Then I can report back. Because I don't think it registered with me as a glaringly nuisance kind of thing.
A nother nice video yust a question did u shave with a Percy noble safety razor before if u did is it a mild or aggressive razor
Thank you, Sand Sorm. No, I have nto shaved with the Percy noble razor. It sounds familiar but frankly, I'll have to Google for more information.
@@MarkSzorady not much info on google but they say it's for beginners and experts
@@sandstorm6304 Thank you.
If I can give an honest opinion, you would think for the price of this razor, they would not make it so difficult to load a blade. To me that doesn’t make much sense. It is however a good looking razor, I just can’t justify spending that much money.
Hi Mark! Glad to see you've got a Konsul, they are quite expensive at around $400 with some options which is too rich for me :D. I don't really think an adjustable slant is worth that price, especially for stainless steel. I have the Rex Ambassador and that's close enough to the Konsul for me! Hope you enjoy the razor and get some great shaves from it.
Well, I did purchase it used. So, that helped a great deal with price. So far, it's been giving me wonderful shaves.
@@MarkSzorady glad to hear it! 🙂 I think the Konsul and the Ambassador are quite similar in appearance and possibly could be similar in performance as well.
Took me a minute to realise this wasn’t actually a shave video 🙄. Maybe I’m wrong in this but in the way you load the blade into the cap it looks like the blade bends slightly but not when put on the razor would does this make any difference to blade feel or performance
Robert, the blade is going to bend/twist regardless of method used to load. The idea in loading the blade by pressing it into the cap, is to make sure the tabs are exposed in order to position and align correctly with the slots in the base plate.
@@MarkSzorady Thanks for clearing that up and sorry for the silly question
@@robertfagan3970 No problem.
Hello There, Mark. I posted an safety razor sugestion, Tatara Muramasa. I think that you Will Love.
Where did you post it?
