I use a shavette with derby blades and it works wonders! I love how hassle free it is not having to worry about maintaining or up keeping it. Great video brother! 👏🏽
Thank you. I must admit I'm enjoying the hassle free more and more. Everyone now and again I do go back and treat myself with the experience though :)
I like the honing of my skills with the straight razor, but I can definitely appreciate the hassle free of a shavette. I use my straight razor most of the time, but I have a DE for when I just don’t have the time for a straight razor shave. Because I enjoy DE shaving, I don’t really have much use for a shavette myself.
Sorry I’m late. Been busy at work but you know I support you brother.
Thanks brother, I truly appreciate you always coming back to support!
Some good real-life info, was looking for this, thanks. Also, thanks for the bloopers, if gives me hope for my own little channel. Keep it going, you're doing well.
Thanks Danny! Sadly I have decided to let this channel die, I'm now posting weekly over at my other channel "thingsibuy"
Yes I have those replacement blades and love it for my line up.
It's so much easier/faster in a pinch!
I have the falcon one, and it’s so damn difficult to apply a new blade on! Man Idek what I’m doing wrong, because the blade is always uneven
Bro haha. I cut myself so bad figuring it out 😂😂 hopefully this video helps a bit
Lol this has become a new hobby for me. I have 3 SE razors, 2 Straight replaceable razors and planning on getting 1-3 traditional straight razors along with 1-2 of the other types I want to try out.
I went from wanting to have a bread to hating to shave since I would always get cuts and agitation, but once I found out about the SE and straight razors I fall head first. Thanks for the low down, I wont get to crazy with the traditional cause it does seem like you will have to deal with a dull cut for some time until you have to get it honed. So investing in learning how to sharpen it yourself will be good and part of the hobby.
Yep 100%. It can get expensive but it pays for itself over time vs buying those expensive Gillette razors.
There's videos that will teach you how to hone, but if you do it wrong you can easily destroy the blade. Some shops will teach you for a price, totally worth it.
@@Beardyvlogger O, now that I didn't know. If they could teach me I would try it. Best test it out on some cheap 20-30 buck one first then move on to the ones I really want to get. Great tip!
@@h2t26 oh totally I wouldn't be putting my nearly $300 dovo to the test haha
I like the replacement blades because I know it’s always sharp.
Great video. I recommend checking out the dovo shavettes!! Very cool
Dovo is pretty dope. I love their styling and craftsmanship and exactly why my traditional razor is a Dovo :) Spent $260 on this one.
The bloopers are such a good thing to add, funny asf😂
rofl I really gotta do more of that on my new channel. thanks for watching!
Just bought my Facon (Samurai edition) for $10.99 w/100 blades. Just need it for beard/hair line up. Great investment.
Nice, yeah man they're awesome. A great investment and great prices for what you get!
That shavette looks pretty awesome. I shave with a straight razor, and have for decades. I'm not in forums. Im not an enthusiast. Just a guy that loves the feel and speed of a straight razor shave, along with not spending any money per shave😂 I learned how to do it the hard way. There is so much to know, like enough to get a degree. I recommend that any noobs, interested in experiencing the joy of a straight razor shave, learn how to have your face with the Razette. That's going to take a month to het good at, and comfortable with. Then buy a nice straight razor, and a nice strop. You have months of learning just to maintain each. Yes, you even have to learn how to maintain your strop. Take the plunge. You will love shaving and look forward to it. With a Razette on hand. If you are struggling to keep the edge you want on your straight razor (you will), you can just pick up one that is sharp, shave and get on with your life😂 I wish they had those when I startrd.
Thanks Vito, you're so right! I love how quick it is with the Shavette, it's more of a process with a straight razor shave. You have to really take care of it in so many ways, but that's the fun part for those that are into it!
The Shavette is like learning how to rollerblade before you put on ice skates when compared to a straight razor. Great advice man!
@@Beardyvlogger if I wasn't a carpenter, already used to sharpening all my tools, I probably would have been discouraged and left it alone. Being able to just pop in a fresh blade lets you dive right into enjoying the best shave you can get. Now you can do so for a couple years, while you learn how to sharpen a grown up razor😂
@Vito Delorto Lol yup. And at this price with 100 blades you could go almost a lifetime without even getting to the big boy razor lol. When I'm in a rush, it's a shavette. When I want the experience, it's the straight razor.. Do you hone yours yourself? I mostly just use it for line ups so I haven't had a need to hone mine yet. I went in to get it checked and they were like "too soon jr" and also complimented me on how well I've taken care of the blade :)
@@Beardyvlogger 😂😂😂 "Jr"...
My main razor is just a cheap Zertone. I had to sharpen it out of the box, not much. Just a touch on a medium stone, and a good hone on the hone stone. I strop it for every use. About 15 strokes on the furry side, then 20 strokes up and down the smooth side with my left hand then 20 more up and down with my right hand. That progam lasts me about two months (a few shaves a week), before I hve to take it to the hone stone. The hone stone is like two minutes- not a sharpening project. I'm sure if I bought a "nice razor" I could get away with about half the strop strokes every shave and go a lot longer without hone stone touch up.
Still loving the bloopers brother 😂😂😂
thank you :) Not many people watch that far, but I still think it's funny to add in anyway lol.
I’ve had my Tomb 45 & replaceable blades for 2 years now for a total of $20. I was spending more on Mach 3’s when I had a goatee.
Yeah man, Gilette stuff is such a rip off compared to this stuff, and you get a closer shave too with waaaaaaay less/no irritation.
Using a shavette, straight razor, or even a safety razor are the essence of being a real man.
I think you're on to something here!
Really depends on the blade that you use in the shavette.
The ones that came with Facon Branded Platinum coated Japanese stainless steel. I've heard good things about derby though. I'd say these are pretty good. If I'm being honest when I'm in a pinch and just need to get the job done, I've been using the derby more, even though I love the Dovo. It's a pretty close shave, just when the camera is zoomed in like that you really do notice the difference watching back. Just looking at the mirror I couldn't tell the difference in closeness. Which brand do you recommend? I'll try them when I run out in 100 years 😂😇
@@Beardyvlogger derby. Feather and gillette nacets are the best imho. Ive fallen in love with wetshaving the past couple years. Its just so cool
@@kentuckybeardsman Me too man, going on 3 years ish. I wouldn't have it any other way! I could never go back.
Do you know if feather has a blade that would fit on that same facon razor you have?
I'm not sure. I just use the ones that came with the blade. I'll probably never run out they provided so many and I only use it for cheek line ups
Beards getting there 👊
oh heck yeah, soon to be uncle Ron length :)
I learned to straight shave with a shavette, then bought a traditional which was no where near as sharp, but the sound was really cool, use the shavette 99% of the time, convenience wins...
After getting a shavette I have to agree. As much as I like the "experience" of a straight razor, I just don't always have the time for it.... actually never.... it has been sitting there for about a year haha. I should probably check on it!
Gravity razors come with derby half blades, i found them too sharp for my liking. i switched to a Shark DE blade broken in half and works better for me, plus the gravity razor doesn’t have the top clip that can be aggravating. I havent gotten a straight razor because the USA made ones are 200$
Yep my straight razor was $275. Definitely not cheap but a life long purchase. Can even pass it down if you take good care of it.
Still haven't tried a straight razor
This Facon one would be a great way to try to see if it's up your alley. $20 is an easier expense to swallow than $260 and find you don't like it :)
@@Beardyvlogger yes it is but I never shave
@@BeardsandCars me either, just my legs! Haha Jk. Just cheek line ups
@@Beardyvlogger hopefully not talking ass cheeks🤣
Cannot believe I just watched a grown man shave his legs. What has my life turned to? 😂
You can thank Jordan for that, it was his suggestion :P
😆 i’m still waiting for my thank you 😂🤣
@@teakey me too 😂
Bet he was itchy for the next week or so
Not at all actually.
There is more expensive blades for a shavette from Japan, called Feather. I don't know if they're closer cut than the straight razor but damn they can make blood baths if not careful.
haha that sounds scary!
I do believe it's Façon which comes from French and should be pronounced Fah-saun. The saun part sounds like sauna without the last "a". Façon means way, manner (of doing smth)
Nice, thank you!
Yes!!!!!! Pineapple DOES NOT belong on pizza!!! I knew we are brothers for a reason!!😁😁😁
hahahah yes!!! 👌
Dude!!! Get a freakin lawnmower on those legs!!!
hahhaha hey man, us Europeans we are hairy beasts!
1st Mik, cool informative upload brother 👍 Hope you are well 🙏
First or second 👀 Thanks brother! I'm doing well, new place is kickin' I should give you a tour on camera one day :)
Phx my Ravens brother!!
@@user-ne9wp8ve5u hope you are well brother? 🙏
@@phx_stephan doing well brother.
I’ve been Traditional WetShaving for 4 years and in that time I’ve been using Shavettes on and off so I have lots of experience with them.
I just recently got into Straight Razors and I’m on about my eighth Shave. It’s OK and I just find it really tedious to send it out to get honed, make sure you strap it correctly if not you’ll roll the edge. I find that the Shavettes are the modern Straight Razors and really prefers safety razors new and vintage alike!
💈😁✌🏻💈
i’m not sure if I’m gonna stick with it because I’d like to get a BBS Shave
They're both great for their own reasons. Sometimes I just want the quick shave I can get with a shavette when I'm strapped for time, when I want to truly enjoy the experience it's traditional straight razor for me. It's great to have both really!
Been stropping for a few years. Even brought it in to have it looked at under a specialty shops microscope and they said I'm doing a great job with maintenance :)
Holy shit bro you got more hair than the sasquatch🤣
You're not wrong haha
That’s right! Pineapple 🍍 does NOT belong on pizza! :)
haha someone caught it, I'm glad you agree. It's a polarizing topic 😂
@@Beardyvlogger yes it is!
Hey Mik wassup brother
My brother! 👊
Its "It Rubs the lotion on its skin.." not "puts"
Haha thx for catching that
Perfect 🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🔊🔊🔊
Ok really your legs!!!🤦🏾♂️............ 🤣🤣🤣
you like them chicken legs? 😂
@@Beardyvlogger 🤣🤣🤣
You lost me at "pineapple doesn't belong on pizza" Hawaiian pizza originated in Canada and everybody knows Canadians grow the best beards.
We sure do haha! Get dat lumberjack vibe in ya!
Pineapple is delicious on pizza
Noooooooo 🤣🤣🤣
You most certainly have a beautiful Beard sir and a handsome face but a nice trim with a Wahl clipper would do your beard wonders and will also get all those nasty looking gray hairs sticking out.
wow you really live up to your name LOL
