    I have this razor and it is very good for the money. Derby blades not so much.... my go to blade is the Persona Lab Blue for this one.

    I think the best shaving kit is very subjective but this starter kit is pretty good for the price. Might have to pick up the soap to try, I dig the label design.

    I just ordered 2 of those *RazoRock Quick Change razors.* 1 4 my stepson & 1 4 my grandson. _They're both lazy so the quick cleaning of the razor should really appeal to them._ lol

      Don't use the *Muhle R41.* Use the *Merkur 25C* or the *Parker 24C.*
      *_Open comb_*_ is the most efficient way to remove long hair without a doubt!_ You know this Nick.

  • @kurtramdath8341

  • @jillsnoddon4463
    @jillsnoddon4463 6 років тому

    Mine arrived today and sure is a good value. I love Italian Barber. Of course, they always throw in some samples of products. The Quick Change Razor is a knockoff of the Vikings Blade Chieftain. but with a shorter guard and not as heavy.

  • @Madkent94
    @Madkent94 6 років тому

    You should do a video where you try to get the cheapest wet shaving gear possible while still being a good shave. I reckon you could get a cheap chinese razor, some derby blades, an arko stick and a cheap brush for under $10.

  • @ElnuevoCologne101
    @ElnuevoCologne101 6 років тому

    Excellent video Nick, don't know about the razor or the blades but the soap and the brush sounds very appealing to me

  • @darkwish210
    @darkwish210 6 років тому

    Nick I’d like to see you use something adjustable like the Ming Shi razor. Under $10 razor but does the job so well. Basically the same as the Merkur Futur.

  • @ianmuessig
    @ianmuessig 6 років тому

    Those baili razors really aren't bad at all! I'm impressed with the RR WTP soap, it looked like even just the bloom water started to lather with your fingers.

  • @Ryland_28
    @Ryland_28 6 років тому

    I'm still new to wet-shaving and I just recently tried a soap for the first time. Being that I much prefer face lathering, I went with a couple of sticks rather than pucks which I found to be incredibly user friendly. Why don't sticks receive more recommendation for beginners? They're much more user friendly.

  • @scottrcall
    @scottrcall 6 років тому

    That razor looks exactly like the Vikings Blade Chieftain, which runs for $37 by itself.

  • @ramjet118
    @ramjet118 6 років тому

    Derby blades....Not the greatest, but good for atleast one shave. Just careful with multiple passes on the shave. Best item on there is the brush. Soft wonderful goodness! lol

  • @anthonypalermo7143
    @anthonypalermo7143 6 років тому

    Excellent video, Nick! This is now going to be what I recommend when suggesting gear to new wet shavers. Loving the variety of your newest videos. What RazoRock razor is your personal favorite?

  • @cariza5
    @cariza5 6 років тому

    That Razor is made in China under the name of Baili BD179 and can be found dirt cheap on Ali Express.

  • @koskey06
    @koskey06 6 років тому

    I need to try derby blades again. I tried them once and it was awful. I was using a 59 super speed. Might try it in a adjustable or something since most say its a decent blade.

  • @joyghosh7239
    @joyghosh7239 6 років тому

    Nice kit nick me2 also participating in movember why don't you buy the merkur futur for ur movember shave

  • @Crazy4CaitlinHart
    @Crazy4CaitlinHart 6 років тому

    For just a trim like that I don't use anything but the razor, no soap, works fine if you don't dilly dally too long after getting out of the shower.

  • @williamlohnes3838
    @williamlohnes3838 6 років тому

    Question for you Nick can you please do a video of the stick version of the same soap you're using in this video? Thanks.

  • @39Cholo
    @39Cholo 6 років тому

    That's a great deal, all that for half the price or the merkur 34c. Even if not the best quality great for a travel set if nothing else.

  • @JRCW892
    @JRCW892 6 років тому

  • @oscrm1760

    Sorry my ignorance , im an rookie yet change at DE razor , the shaving soap when brush and form that paste after i only clean with water the soap and ready for the next shave, how much can long that shaving soap sorry my english thanks

    • @lumberbrain
      @lumberbrain 6 років тому

      Oscr M....If I'm getting this right you're asking how long the soap lasts. If you shave once or twice a week the soap should last a few months.

  • @goldensteeltv8546
    @goldensteeltv8546 6 років тому

    The RazorRock Quick-Change razor is a rebranded Baili razor, if you don't know about this

  • @IDWIE
    @IDWIE 6 років тому +15

    Derby blades are the shit. I don't care what anyone says.

    • @MrBeyboo
      @MrBeyboo 6 років тому

      IDWIE there was a time maybe 10 years ago that any forum members like on B&B and others used to have derby as their go to shaving blades...

    • @IDWIE
      @IDWIE 6 років тому +1

      Beyboo Boy When I was getting into wet shaving, all I kept hearing was Feather, Feather, Feather, and Derby is a starter blade. Have tried many blades including Feather and Derby keeps being the smoothest.

    • @rayr5950
      @rayr5950 6 років тому +2

      I'm in the Derby blades are shit camp. I can't understand why some people say they are smooth, to me they are rough and really irritating. Last time I used one my neck was red for 2 days, and I don't have sensitive skin.

    • @IDWIE
      @IDWIE 6 років тому

      Ray R I guess we're all different. I have crazy sensitive skin and Derby is the only razor that doesn't irritate my skin. Are you using a good soap/alum block/after shave? What blades work for you?

    • @rayr5950
      @rayr5950 6 років тому +1

      Obviously we are all different. Yep, I think I was using Stirling then and I use an alum block. A lot of blades work for me, Astra SP, Polsilver, Dorco's, Bolzano etc...

    @oneshoeless 6 років тому

    Do you bloom all of your soaps or just the soaps that are very hard? Like you, I have a few more days before the beard comes off. I really been working on my straight this month. I figure I might be able to use it for a full shave by December. We'll see...

    • @johnny5.56
      @johnny5.56 6 років тому

      Joe Jackson all artisans I've seen on r/w_e say to not bloom their soaps. Maybe if the soap is extremely hard but you shouldn't bloom 99% of them.

    • @oneshoeless
      @oneshoeless 6 років тому

      That is why I was asking. Because in almost every video, I see him bloom the soap. Thanks.

      I bought that one too, and the line. I think that the orange is the best scent, but at the price point they are all worth it!
