The Outlaw is an exceptional razor. I can get an almost clean shave in one pass with the grain. A cleanup pass across the grain and I am done with no irritation at all. This thing shaves very efficiently, yet not aggressively. Pretty much as advertised. Good job Executive Shaving!
Brian, I’d just like to say thank you for your generous contributions to the wet shaving world, and I wish you, Shona and Freddie a wonderful retirement and happy lives! Slainte Mhaith! I raise my glass in your honor!
Hello from Antalya, Turkey Brian. A friend of mine from Edinburgh has just come over for some dental treatment at our clinic and he's brought me The Outlaw to try for 6 months. I shave with it last night 28/2/2023. All I can say is WOW. I thought it might have been like my Game Changer .84 but it's totally different. It's way more efficient. The audio feedback you get from The Outlaw tells you where every whisker is. I wish I could buy one over here. At least I've got one for 6 months. Great product.
Learned how to shave with a safety razor thanks to this man. 4+ years later and I've saved hundreds of dollars (and ingrown hairs) thanks to him. Thank you, Brian. Glad to see you're still innovating. Been using a 34C ever since but this Outlaw Stainless has me seriously considering switching. Sadly it appears to be out of stock now. (And if only there was U.S. distribution!)
Just ordered mine today! I didn't realize the conversion rate over here in the US lol. Instead of around 100 it was 147! Oops but it will be worth it to have such a nice razor. I also ordered some soap, aftershave and a brush. Just not sure which bowl to go with. Don't need anything expensive just something that works good and gets the job done. I really can't wait to try out all these new products! I do have a beard so I won't be shaving a whole lot but still have a little I gotta tend to. Thank you for everything you do! The videos, the tips, tricks and advice and for bringing us such amazing shaving products! Keep up the great work and stay safe
Thank you so much for your business! It's very much appreciated. Take your time with The Outlaw, apply light pressure only and shave on a rich, creamy lather. Take care, be safe! Brian
That feedback, beautiful razor and shave Brian well done on developing it. Once you nail the technique a sub 10mins shave is very achievable in the morning, look great, feel great and is a lot more satisfying than a cartridge.
Phenomenal razor that I've been using since May and it still puts a smile on my face and still impresses me every-time I use it. The handle on it is exceptionally grippy and is fantastic used with another head from another razor. I use it with my Edwin Jagger DE89 (as I hate the included Jagger handle) and it transforms the EJ DE 89. Looking well there Brian, you look like you have been on a healthy lifestyle regime.
This video made my week, your style always brings me peace! I applied your technique to my basic routine today and it has made me enjoy it even more, I now love the irritation free and simplicity of 2 pass shaves. Thank you very much Brian :)
Bryan Sir, You have inspired me to use a safety razor. I have problem skin and also a diabetic. Little skin issues for most can be a big problem for me. I can not wait until I am able to purchase the Outlaw. Thank you for what you do my friend. God Bless.
I've been hooked to Mr Brian's tutorials ever since watching his first. Would love to see him do it once with his moustache on ! and show how a safety razor can style it. We subcontinent fans would love it and mo'vember is also round the corner !

Got this razor and it is addictive! The sound, the weight, the smootheness. And pretty affordable as well i might say considering the comletition. Really shows the level of research prior to the release

I have fewer post shave irritations with the Outlaw, but it stings much more when using my alum block after the shave. Have you tried the Outlaw for shaving the head? I still use my Muhle R89 for shaving my head. Thinking perhaps trying the Outlaw for my head next time I shave.
Hi Sverre, I don't shave my head (yet), The Outlaw is closer shaving compared to the R89 - maybe that's why you're getting the sting. Give The Outlaw a run out on your head, it should be fine, take your time. Brian

Does this brand have faster shipping or cheaper if it is inside England? I am planning an upcoming trip to visit my sister over there so I was thinking I could get an Outlaw set. I never used a safety razor before, at first I was using those normal razors and as I grew to dislike them as I would always get burns so I just switched to machine shaving. For a period I didn't shave and just grew by beard as I have an enviable one, coming from my peers, and only trimming it every now and then. Eventually I cut it to zero and thought I'd keep it down with the machine BUT I always wanted to try out a safety razor as those seemed to give you more control. Got to try them out form my friend and I got no burns and no cuts so I decided that I'm eventually going to switch myself from machine to safety razor.
We are based in Scotland, not England. We can ship to England in one day, you should make an order when you are in England, use your home address for billing and her address for shipping to avoid the 20% sales tax (VAT). Thanks for watching, if you need advice: brian@executive-shaving.co.uk Brian
When you're shaving WTG on your neck (which is ATG for most people), you're going insanely fast. Is that possible because it's a WTG pass for you or you just have unrivalled (absolutely perfect) shaving technique? Maybe both? Personally for me, shaving the neck in the opposite direction is a nightmare (Locked wrist, unlocked wrist, nothing seems to work. ) What's your secret, master Brian? One more thing... Do you shave exclusively with personna blades? In all your tutorials I see the same blade. Thank you.
i have the same neck hairs as Brain. for me going wtg is down to up till i reach my cheekbone. if i would go like most people i feel it pulling alot more.
I would argue most men have the same beard pattern as I do. Personna seem to work best for me - it's best to try a few brands to find out which is best for you. If it's too difficult to shave ATG shave WTG twice instead. Brian
That looks like a very fine razor Brian. I'd like to give it a try sometime. I love the large clean out ports, the narrow profile head, and the super grippy knurling on the handle. Looks very nice.
I’m not in the UK so I’m picking one of these (variation of) up from Steve (Alpha) directly, it’ll be a while before I have it in hand, but having watched a few videos I’m really excited to receive it. He’s also a super friendly helpful guy too!
What the difference between the Outlaw Razor Head and the Executive Razor Head I heard that they may both be the same except for the polishing of the Outlaw Razor Head. I just ordered the Executive Razor Head because of my budget thanks for the video.
They are two totally different heads. The Braveheart is made from a metal alloy. The Outlaw is all stainless steel, it also has a low profile head and the head is wider to cover the whole width of the blade. The threads are also different. Thanks for watching. Brian
I use King of Shaves shaving oil with a Harry's cartridge razor, and although the oil seems to work with my skin well, I only get 2 shaves max from the blades. I shave my head at the same time as well though. The clogging is so frustrating. Is shaving oil no good for DE razors?
Oil clogs the razor up, switch to a decent shaving cream - much easier to use and it will deliver better skin protection: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/natural-shaving-cream-by-executive-shaving-company-200ml Thanks for watching. Brian
I found that best for me with Polish "Wizamet W-11" set to 3rd position is shaving first all against the grain, second with the grain and grand finale against the grain. For foam production I use liquid grey soap "Biały jeleń"(White stag). Perhaps one pass would be suitable for daily sharing but I shave when hairs get at least 5mm long that is 5-7 days interval.
Hi do you have free shipping to Croatia and do you Planung to make an adjusteble butterfly razor, because i have a bit sheaky hands? The current razor i have i non adjusteble and Sometimes it is too agressivne or too soft for me, i tipicaly shave 1 or 2 Times a week and love personna Blades too, altough they leav me some tingeling after use. You are truelly a Legend!
We have a range of adjustable safety razors available on our website, you can take a look here: bit.ly/3NabkIM - we offer standard shipping at £12.99 and express shipping at £17.99!
Used with a light touch and on a rich, creamy lather with a sharp blade and you'll be fine. Thank you for your business, it's very much appreciated. Brian
Brian, what kind of shave can I expect from the Outlaw? I’m currently using the Vikings Blade Chieftain and think I need to move up a notch to something a little more aggressive.
The Outlaw delivers close, efficient yet comfortable shaves. Users are leaving very favourable comments on UA-cam and our website. For the vast majority of men, The Outlaw is a two-pass and you're done razor. Thanks for watching. Brian
Bryan, how much would that full set cost please? Razor, brush, stand, cream & bowl? It would be great if you packaged this demo set as an actual package on your website, I could then send the link to my better half for my Christmas present. Love you channel, really, really useful for those of us who haven’t been thought and are self teaching. Thank you
Hi Jamie, we have various Outlaw sets here - bottom of page: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/executive-shaving-all-stainless-steel-outlaw-double-edge-safety-razor Everything else is available on out website. Brian
Hello Mr Bryan, could I ask you a suggestion? I've got a sensitive skin but a really coarse and hard beard. Currently the best combo it's shaving after a hot shower, with a good lather and the best razor it's the Mulhe R89 with a Personna Platinum blade. I would like to buy a stainless steel razor and I'm not sure if this version it's too aggressive (I tired the Ikon B1 slant and the Maggard V3A that for me are too aggressive) and so it's better to switch to the mild version of the Outlaw (but I've got also a Feather AS-D2 and... sometimes I feel it's too mild). So could I consider it an efficient but not aggressive razor (more or less like the Mulhe R89) or should it be better to choose the milder version?
Hello Davide, I hope you are well? Go for The Mild Outlaw - this is a closer shaving razor than the R89 and the AS-D2. Once you get to grips with it, you will only need 2 passes and that is good, fewer passes is better for the skin. Brian
The "Happy Birthday to You" song? Was it your birthday Brian? Actually, the melody originally came from the song "Good Morning to All" probably written by the Hill Sisters in 1893 (according to Wikipedia), so perhaps that was the reason for choosing this song. Very informative video. Thanks!
The Outlaw benefits from a better finish and being all stainless steel it will last a lifetime. The Braveheart is good but not as good as the Outlaw. See the range here: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/executive-shaving-all-stainless-steel-outlaw-double-edge-safety-razor Thanks for watching. Brian
Can someone explain thr angle he's shaving at? It almost looks straight and i have been trying to shave at a 35 degree angle or so and sometimes have difficulty getting a close shave without multiple passes which then sometimes leads to skin irritation.
The angle is around 30 degrees. The Outlaw delivers good audible feedback, you hear the blade cutting the bristles when the angle is correct. Both the standard version and the Mild version are 2-passes and you're done razors. Persevere until the finding the correct angle comes naturally to you. Brian
Great tutelage and advice on shaving products. I bought a Western Razor several months ago and gave my plastic and electric to my boys but said they need to use Western Razor. Am waiting to see if it’s in their Xmas list - but I love the razor. Can’t wait to try these products with it. ❤
6:36 "take too long to shave with a safety razor...." it may be that some are not comfortable and are less efficient...fair enough, however it's part of the whole 'raison d'être'...it's an experience. It accentuates the wet shave. In some instances, at the very most, it adds a few minutes...all worth it. :) Great work Brian!
I see. My father, who's 78, claim to have owned and used one for most of his life, one that used to belong to his father. So it was very old. Now that razor is gone and so I bought him a Merkur 39C to replace it. Unfortunately, being so used to his old razor, and having reduced eye sight, he made the mistake of feeling the handle (which was firm) and then proceed to shave. Of course the blade was loose after cleaning the razor after his last shave. He didn't notice until he started feeling the burn. He had cut himself over large areas of his face. It was an early birthday gift and this happened on his birthday, only an hour or two before his guests arrived. I was very sad to find out this happened. Hopefully he will not make the same mistake twice, but I figured having a razor more similar to his old one would reduce the risk further. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to reply.
@@viperracing2889 That was such a a shame what happended to your father. Only two months or so ago, my handle came loose (my fault for not tightening it up after changing the blade) and I nicked my skin. Thankfully I saw right away what I had done and apart from one nick I was OK but lesson learned. Brian
Hello, been watching your videos for some time and also learned some tips from them. How is this razor in comparison to Muhle R41? I'm currently using R41 and sometimes i get small cuts, but i still use it because of the very close shave. I have sensitive skin and have to shave daily, close shave.
Hi Andrew, the standard version of the Outlaw is probably comparable to the Parker 95R. There is a mild version of the Outlaw which would be slightly milder.
I'm not sure, that question is not in my pay grade for answering. Our social media manager is on holiday this week, ask her: kirstie@executive-shaving.co.uk Brian
The shave results will be much the same but The Outlaw is a far superior razor - better build quality, all stainless steel, low-profile head for easy shaving under the nose, the head covers the entire width of the blade and the thread will not strip or shear off as can happen with The Braveheart. Brian
Hi Bjorn, thanks for watching. We'll add it to the list of videos to be filmed but the technique for shaving with the mild version is exactly the same so you can follow the instructions in this video.
You do get good audible feedback from the blade which you can hear on the video, you do also feel the blade cutting the bristles. The shaving action is clean and tug free. Thanks for watching. Brian
hi brian john here i no your retired now but figured your the best to talk to got the outlaw standard razor notice litlle scatches on razor head gonna shave with it and use it wanna see if they can just send new standard head with return shipping label out and when new razor head arrives i will send one i got back with return shipping labal as i threw box that it was in out to garbage also i live in canada and waited 2 weeks for it to arrive which was fine aliitle up set but as long as i get new standard head sent out i will be fine
Hi John, sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your first shave with the Outlaw. Can you please advise what blades you are using with it? With the Outlaw we advise going slower, taking shorter strokes to give more control. Ally
Andrew - you'll get the same results from a OneBlade, this shave like a cartridge razor but delivers a much more comfortable shave, these razors have a pivoting head - NO CUTS! Read more here: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/oneblade-razors-comparison Brian
It is a Muhle stand but not the Universal Stand, here is the Universal Stand: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/muhle-rhmuni-universal-shaving-brush-and-razor-stand Thanks for watching. Brian
Wow, this stuff sure is expensive. The Persona blades are three and a half times what Parker/Astra and other premium blades cost per count. Wonder if they're noticeably better in quality.
I've been using safety razors for about half a year now and there's no going back to market garbage. Anyway a couple of things: After Brexit, how is shipping in Finland? I mean extra costs and all that. There are a couple of things I'd need. And the second: The tune in the background, was that really your birthday? ;)
Hi Janne, thanks for watching. Post Brexit you will not pay the 20% UK VAT at point of order but will instead pay local taxes when the items arrive in Finland. These are set at the local rate and depend on the items ordered. No, it wasn't my birthday!
The Outlaw is an exceptional razor. I can get an almost clean shave in one pass with the grain. A cleanup pass across the grain and I am done with no irritation at all.
This thing shaves very efficiently, yet not aggressively.

Hi there, if you pop over to our website and head to the beginners section you can have a look at a few different options to see what suits you best. We also have a live chat on our website if you need some guidance! Thanks for watching.
@@ExecutiveShaving appreciate your reply, I've visited your website snd found a section for SKIN TYPE and by selecting sensitive I got "Parker Variant Adjustable Safety Razor Graphite And Matte" thank you.
I have fewer post shave irritations with the Outlaw, but it stings much more when using my alum block after the shave.
Have you tried the Outlaw for shaving the head? I still use my Muhle R89 for shaving my head. Thinking perhaps trying the Outlaw for my head next time I shave.
It's an excellent head shaver. Two passes and a little buffing to achieve bbs
Hi Sverre,
I don't shave my head (yet), The Outlaw is closer shaving compared to the R89 - maybe that's why you're getting the sting.
Give The Outlaw a run out on your head, it should be fine, take your time.
Brian
Brian, as always a very informative and educational piece of work from a true gentleman......
Have you ever considered running for The President of The United States or becoming head football coach for the Dallas Cowboys???
Thanks again from Rockwall, TX
A child could do a better job of running your country than the joker currently in the job.
Thanks for your kind words.

I would have to agree kind sir.
But he is ours, and he beats the alternative!
Anthony Hopkins brother shaving again 👍 Very nice bathroom by the way
The apartment was built in 1896, the rooms are huge with very high ceilings and massive windows, we love it here.

Very cool, greetings
And that's what I said when I first watched his video. He is great man.
Does this brand have faster shipping or cheaper if it is inside England? I am planning an upcoming trip to visit my sister over there so I was thinking I could get an Outlaw set.
I never used a safety razor before, at first I was using those normal razors and as I grew to dislike them as I would always get burns so I just switched to machine shaving.
For a period I didn't shave and just grew by beard as I have an enviable one, coming from my peers, and only trimming it every now and then. Eventually I cut it to zero and thought I'd keep it down with the machine BUT I always wanted to try out a safety razor as those seemed to give you more control.
Got to try them out form my friend and I got no burns and no cuts so I decided that I'm eventually going to switch myself from machine to safety razor.
We are based in Scotland, not England. We can ship to England in one day, you should make an order when you are in England, use your home address for billing and her address for shipping to avoid the 20% sales tax (VAT).

When you're shaving WTG on your neck (which is ATG for most people), you're going insanely fast. Is that possible because it's a WTG pass for you or you just have unrivalled (absolutely perfect) shaving technique? Maybe both?
Personally for me, shaving the neck in the opposite direction is a nightmare (Locked wrist, unlocked wrist, nothing seems to work. ) What's your secret, master Brian?
One more thing... Do you shave exclusively with personna blades? In all your tutorials I see the same blade.
Thank you.
i have the same neck hairs as Brain. for me going wtg is down to up till i reach my cheekbone. if i would go like most people i feel it pulling alot more.
I would argue most men have the same beard pattern as I do.
Personna seem to work best for me - it's best to try a few brands to find out which is best for you.
If it's too difficult to shave ATG shave WTG twice instead.
Brian
@@brianm1967 Really?? I thought your neck was an exception rather than the norm. Anyways, thanks for the reply, Brian. Have a great day.
That looks like a very fine razor Brian. I'd like to give it a try sometime. I love the large clean out ports, the narrow profile head, and the super grippy knurling on the handle. Looks very nice.
Hi Vince, the reviews from buyers have been overwhelmingly excellent.
Thanks for watching.
Brian
I’m not in the UK so I’m picking one of these (variation of) up from Steve (Alpha) directly, it’ll be a while before I have it in hand, but having watched a few videos I’m really excited to receive it. He’s also a super friendly helpful guy too!
Thanks for watching, hoping you get on well with the Outlaw when it arrives.

The forbidden mustache. Hahahaa
What the difference between the Outlaw Razor Head and the Executive Razor Head I heard that they may both be the same except for the polishing of the Outlaw Razor Head. I just ordered the Executive Razor Head because of my budget thanks for the video.
They are two totally different heads. The Braveheart is made from a metal alloy. The Outlaw is all stainless steel, it also has a low profile head and the head is wider to cover the whole width of the blade. The threads are also different.
Thanks for watching.
Brian
I use King of Shaves shaving oil with a Harry's cartridge razor, and although the oil seems to work with my skin well, I only get 2 shaves max from the blades. I shave my head at the same time as well though. The clogging is so frustrating. Is shaving oil no good for DE razors?
Oil clogs the razor up, switch to a decent shaving cream - much easier to use and it will deliver better skin protection: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/natural-shaving-cream-by-executive-shaving-company-200ml
Thanks for watching.
Brian
I found that best for me with Polish "Wizamet W-11" set to 3rd position is shaving first all against the grain, second with the grain and grand finale against the grain. For foam production I use liquid grey soap "Biały jeleń"(White stag). Perhaps one pass would be suitable for daily sharing but I shave when hairs get at least 5mm long that is 5-7 days interval.
Hi do you have free shipping to Croatia and do you Planung to make an adjusteble butterfly razor, because i have a bit sheaky hands? The current razor i have i non adjusteble and Sometimes it is too agressivne or too soft for me, i tipicaly shave 1 or 2 Times a week and love personna Blades too, altough they leav me some tingeling after use.
You are truelly a Legend!
We have a range of adjustable safety razors available on our website, you can take a look here: bit.ly/3NabkIM - we offer standard shipping at £12.99 and express shipping at £17.99!
Thank you kindly for helping teach me how to wet shave, albeit later in life but it's a lot more fun!
we're glad to hear you're enjoying wet shaving! Never too late to start 👏
Will get that razor today. Looking forward to try it. Last razor which i am really interested in.
You won't regret your decision Jens, I'll add some free blades to your order.
Thanks for watching.

@@ExecutiveShaving I got it used. So you can't. But thanks for the offer!
But the guy I bought it from now bought the Medium one!👍
@@jensebu78 Ah.OK.
The OUTLAW is fantastic Brian .
@@domenicozanre2026 I agree! Great Razor!! It's quite aggressive and yet very smooth. I bought the Braveheart too. That is also nice.

great video, Mr. Mulreany! I have the Outlaw Mild and it is, indeed, an excellent and efficient razor!! Best wishes, Elizabeth Jones USA
Thank you for watching and for your business Elizabeth! Great to hear that you are getting on well with the Outlaw Mild.
I'm got the Braveheart on the way. Been using a cheap beginner razor to learn with time to upgrade
Used with a light touch and on a rich, creamy lather with a sharp blade and you'll be fine.
Thank you for your business, it's very much appreciated.
Brian
Brian, what kind of shave can I expect from the Outlaw? I’m currently using the Vikings Blade Chieftain and think I need to move up a notch to something a little more aggressive.
The Outlaw delivers close, efficient yet comfortable shaves. Users are leaving very favourable comments on UA-cam and our website. For the vast majority of men, The Outlaw is a two-pass and you're done razor.
Thanks for watching.
Brian
Bryan, how much would that full set cost please? Razor, brush, stand, cream & bowl? It would be great if you packaged this demo set as an actual package on your website, I could then send the link to my better half for my Christmas present. Love you channel, really, really useful for those of us who haven’t been thought and are self teaching. Thank you
Hi Jamie, we have various Outlaw sets here - bottom of page: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/executive-shaving-all-stainless-steel-outlaw-double-edge-safety-razor
Everything else is available on out website.
Brian
Hello Mr Bryan, could I ask you a suggestion? I've got a sensitive skin but a really coarse and hard beard. Currently the best combo it's shaving after a hot shower, with a good lather and the best razor it's the Mulhe R89 with a Personna Platinum blade. I would like to buy a stainless steel razor and I'm not sure if this version it's too aggressive (I tired the Ikon B1 slant and the Maggard V3A that for me are too aggressive) and so it's better to switch to the mild version of the Outlaw (but I've got also a Feather AS-D2 and... sometimes I feel it's too mild). So could I consider it an efficient but not aggressive razor (more or less like the Mulhe R89) or should it be better to choose the milder version?
Hello Davide, I hope you are well?
Go for The Mild Outlaw - this is a closer shaving razor than the R89 and the AS-D2.
Once you get to grips with it, you will only need 2 passes and that is good, fewer passes is better for the skin.
Brian
hi john here wont be long and i will be getting the outlaw regular version with the claymore se razor and a tub of the executive shave cream
Fantastic John, great choices!
Kind regards
Brian
I plan on buying a muhle razor on your website only because of your charisma
Charisma? Haha, my wife of 41 years may disagree!
Thanks for watching.
Brian
The "Happy Birthday to You" song? Was it your birthday Brian? Actually, the melody originally came from the song "Good Morning to All" probably written by the Hill Sisters in 1893 (according to Wikipedia), so perhaps that was the reason for choosing this song. Very informative video. Thanks!
Mark chose the music, he thought it was relaxing. You're right, it's a variation of Happy Birthday.
Thanks for watching.
Brian
I was looking for someone to mention this! Awesome
Which one is better, the outlaw or the brave heart razor? I can't decide!
The Outlaw benefits from a better finish and being all stainless steel it will last a lifetime. The Braveheart is good but not as good as the Outlaw.
See the range here: www.executive-shaving.co.uk/executive-shaving-all-stainless-steel-outlaw-double-edge-safety-razor
Thanks for watching.
Brian
Can someone explain thr angle he's shaving at? It almost looks straight and i have been trying to shave at a 35 degree angle or so and sometimes have difficulty getting a close shave without multiple passes which then sometimes leads to skin irritation.
The angle is around 30 degrees. The Outlaw delivers good audible feedback, you hear the blade cutting the bristles when the angle is correct. Both the standard version and the Mild version are 2-passes and you're done razors. Persevere until the finding the correct angle comes naturally to you.
Brian
@JSM 26 The shaving angle looks weird sometimes because of the camera angle. Film yourself shaving and you'll see what I mean.
Great tutelage and advice on shaving products.
I bought a Western Razor several months ago and gave my plastic and electric to my boys but said they need to use Western Razor. Am waiting to see if it’s in their Xmas list - but I love the razor. Can’t wait to try these products with it. ❤
Thanks for your comment, we're very happy to help.
Well done!.
A very good safety razor.
my next two razors i will be adding to the collection will be the claymore and the outlaw
Delighted to hear it John!
Excellent shave!
Odd question, does anyone know the song in the background? It's very relaxing
Thank you for watching.
sounds like happy birthday aha
6:36 "take too long to shave with a safety razor...." it may be that some are not comfortable and are less efficient...fair enough, however it's part of the whole 'raison d'être'...it's an experience. It accentuates the wet shave. In some instances, at the very most, it adds a few minutes...all worth it. :) Great work Brian!
I agree 100%!
Brian.
Hi Brian we have in Balkan one Barber with Nome Željko from Croatia ,, Moja brijacnica,, Blog
Brian you are very professional.
hi brian john here gonna be getting the regular version of the outlaw razor how are the personna platinum blades work with the outlaw razor
Hi John, it's Personna we recommend for The Outlaw, them Voskhod, Blue Sword and Rapira in that order.
Brian
@@ExecutiveShaving WHEN I GET THE REGULAR VERSION OF THE OUTLAW PERSONNA BLADES IT IS
Is there such a thing as a 2-piece safety razor where you spin the entire handle to fasten the blade rather than just the bottom part of it?
Yes, the Merkur 37c and 39c are good examples.
@@ExecutiveShaving No, on those you only spin the botton part of the handle. I'm looking for one where you spin the entire handle.
@@viperracing2889 None that I am aware of.
Brian
I see. My father, who's 78, claim to have owned and used one for most of his life, one that used to belong to his father. So it was very old. Now that razor is gone and so I bought him a Merkur 39C to replace it. Unfortunately, being so used to his old razor, and having reduced eye sight, he made the mistake of feeling the handle (which was firm) and then proceed to shave. Of course the blade was loose after cleaning the razor after his last shave. He didn't notice until he started feeling the burn. He had cut himself over large areas of his face. It was an early birthday gift and this happened on his birthday, only an hour or two before his guests arrived. I was very sad to find out this happened. Hopefully he will not make the same mistake twice, but I figured having a razor more similar to his old one would reduce the risk further. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to reply.
@@viperracing2889 That was such a a shame what happended to your father. Only two months or so ago, my handle came loose (my fault for not tightening it up after changing the blade) and I nicked my skin. Thankfully I saw right away what I had done and apart from one nick I was OK but lesson learned.
Brian
hi brian john here ordered the outlaw razor yesterday with citris kiss cant wait to shave with it

is that outlaw the mild version
That's the regular version John.
Brian
Late to this; but is your first shaving under the skin with your hair growth or against?
Hello, been watching your videos for some time and also learned some tips from them.
How is this razor in comparison to Muhle R41? I'm currently using R41 and sometimes i get small cuts, but i still use it because of the very close shave. I have sensitive skin and have to shave daily, close shave.
I use my safety raises the day excellent
Good to hear!
Hello Brian, always enjoyed your videos. How this razor compares to the One Blade for someone with a sensitive skin and coarse beard?
whats the model of the outlaw your useing as i see different ones

@@ExecutiveShaving looks like a good razor and watched video on shave with it
I currently use the Parker 95R . Would this be comparable or milder? Thanks.
Hi Andrew, the standard version of the Outlaw is probably comparable to the Parker 95R. There is a mild version of the Outlaw which would be slightly milder.

Brian
How does the outlaw compare against the Braveheart ? Differences between these 2 ?
The shave results will be much the same but The Outlaw is a far superior razor - better build quality, all stainless steel, low-profile head for easy shaving under the nose, the head covers the entire width of the blade and the thread will not strip or shear off as can happen with The Braveheart.
Brian

Hi Bjorn, thanks for watching. We'll add it to the list of videos to be filmed but the technique for shaving with the mild version is exactly the same so you can follow the instructions in this video.
Does using this kind of razor reduce bumps, irritation, and ingrown hairs? I always get this when i use a cartridge, beautiful bathroom btw
Yes! Shaving with a safety razor should reduce irritation and ingrown hairs - you can get a much closer and cleaner shave
hi brian john here got the outlaw de razor and citris kiss today gonna try it out on saturday or sunday
Hi John, great - looking forward to hearing how you got on with them!
How about the blade feelling of the Outlaw razor?
You do get good audible feedback from the blade which you can hear on the video, you do also feel the blade cutting the bristles. The shaving action is clean and tug free.

need it return its got scrathes on top cap want to try nilder version of the outlaw just need head need return shipping label

I've been using safety razors for about half a year now and there's no going back to market garbage. Anyway a couple of things: After Brexit, how is shipping in Finland? I mean extra costs and all that. There are a couple of things I'd need.
And the second: The tune in the background, was that really your birthday? ;)
Hi Janne, thanks for watching. Post Brexit you will not pay the 20% UK VAT at point of order but will instead pay local taxes when the items arrive in Finland. These are set at the local rate and depend on the items ordered. No, it wasn't my birthday!
Nice looks like a great razor, but dang regular working people cannot afford a $134.00 razor wow and ouch. I do love the large sink you got there.
But I saw 'regular working people' on TV last night paying $1,500 for semi automatic assault rifles. This was in Pennsylvania.

Be a nice investment if you ask me you will get your money back within a year if using Gillette mach's etc.
