Nice shave John, I am the same quite a few misses with WK but King of Bourbon, King of Oud, Merchant of Tobacco are three of my favorites that have been around awhile. Take care brother.
Hey Jon great shave, I just purchased the Blutt with .99 based on many reviews saying this plate was better than the .86. But now after my first shave it was really smooth but not as efficient as my BB Ti which is my GOAT for efficiency but not smoothness. Is the 1.20 a lot better than the .99 or only minor improvement?
I bought the Blutt with 0.99 and 1.2 plates. After trying the 0.99 for 3 shaves, I switched to 1.2 and….Holy smoke! It’s so efficient and smooth at the same time. I paired the 1.2 with Astra and never want to switch to another combo again. I’d say if you are OK with the BB, you’ll appreciate the Blutt 1.2’s smoothness while not sacrificing much (if at all) on efficiency.
Great shave, John! Yeah, man that Wholly Kaw lather looked fantastic, but you're right that sticker price for a tub or the bundle probably causes a lot of folks to think twice. However, the luxury speaks for itself.
Thanks Andrew that’s tough since it feels like it’s always changing but right now for me it’s: 1. Wolfman WR2 1.05 , 1.15 Ti 2. Blackland Blackbird Ti 3. Blutt BR-1 1.20 4.Paradigm Single Edge 5. Paradigm Diamondback
Hello, how are you? I have a very important question for me that no one could answer: What is the difference between the Super Badger Shaving Brush and the Silvertip Badger Shaving Brush?
If I am not mistaken super badger and Silvertip are the same grade of hair but super are more likely to have treated tips whereas silver tip is rarely ever treated. An issue with these classifications are they are going to vary widely based on the manufacture
Hey what's up John, nice vid. I wanted to ask you something. Those nylon washers that go between the handle and the base plate, do you use them or not? Thanks
@@johnshaves1996 me too. ok, I asked around and people told me that the shave was better without them. I'm going to shave now without them to see how it is.
A Swiss razor forged from the halls of Valhalla. Helluva shave Cool Blade J!
Thanks Greg! Can’t go wrong with Swiss made right . Take care man

Thanks Sean! I have to try Merchant of tobacco soon. I like your choices . Take care
Nice shave John! I think I would enjoy that scent
Thanks bro . Yeah I don’t think you can go wrong with vanilla!
Great Shave John!
The Swiss razor is one of the🔝
Awesome looking razor. Would love to see a video on the .99 as well.
I’ll get to it this weekend 👍🏼 thanks for stopping by!
I have a lot of misses with Wholly Kaw as well. It's a fine quality soap though. Have a great day John!
Haha agreed but I think you’d enjoy this one as well! Hope you’re well Chris

Thanks James! Agreed it’s pricy but the quality shows . Thanks for stopping by man
Really informative video. Great job! You really know your stuff!
Hi John. I use jojoba oil as a post shave oil and i love it. Have a good one
Hey man! That’s great I wish I started using it earlier it’s good stuff . Have a good rest of your week
@@johnshaves1996 can you recommend any brand for the jojoba oil?
@@aqtor I got mine Amazon I can’t remember the brand but most brands should work
Yes, it's the Bufala base. I have 2 tubs of Siero, it's even better. Slick as ice.
Agreed Siero is fantastic!

I do use the nylon washers most of the time just for the sake of not scratching the base plate

@@chrisspertos9784 there may be some merit to that . My karve aluminum seemed to do better without it. Also they recommend not to use one
@@johnshaves1996 thanks John
Hey bro…
That razor is sick…you have been holding out, huh?! 🤔😆
@@calvingreen7197 haha sorry man I’ll be better! Thanks for stopping by as always
