    I have a V3 that I tried with a feather and a Kai and both shaves were rough. Then I tried it with a Schick P30 and it improved the shave immensely.

    RazoRock mentions this on their website:
    "FEATHER Professional Super Blades will also work but make the razor very aggressive and I would not recommend them. FEATHER Professional LIGHT blades will not work in the Hawk."
    In my opinion the Schick Proline P-30 blades work best in this razor.

      The Feather Pro super makes the Vector too VERY aggresiv. Still the blades feels tuggy... Not nice!
      But the Schick are really nice blades. Feels like a feather (not the blades! 😉) On your face!😁

      @@thumbthumbs4968 Vector, with the right blade, is unbelievable smooth, close shaving and easy to use. Problem areas will be gone! I love it and i hope you will too! Have fun!👍🏼👍🏼

      This razor is horrible because single blades are not projected for safety razor but shavette!!! Safety razor need a tiny blade !!! Not a coarse blade like single blade! Result: you will cut your face!-or will shave bad in case of small pressure!

    Thanks Chris, ya that looked like a rough shave for sure. Funny I got a razor yesterday, tried what was supposed to be a fairly mild razor...it was so aggressive almost took my face apart and I used a fairly mild blade. I may have had a dud blade but man did it feel aggressive as hell since I have only been doing this 9 months. Happy you are getting that cast off :)

    I just recently bought my very first silver tip badger brush, and after using a synthetic brush for some time now, I really feel like a badger brush is not worth the animal dying at all. So I went to west coast shaving and I bought the Yaqi Mysterious Space Tuxedo Synthetic Shaving Brush, and I really hope Im going to like it. I've wanted a black with white tip brush for the longest time now!

    • @AnotherCutAbove
      @AnotherCutAbove  4 роки тому

      I am not a fan of Yaqi as a company as i find them very aggressive marketers. I will say however that their brushes are very well made and do a great job!

    I use the V3 SS with a Feather Pro Gaurd, and it gives a great shave! Yes, a bit aggressive, but I can do a one pass shave and be done. I usually shave about every two or three days, so it helps to have an aggressive shaver at times. Of course I have other razors in my shave den, just depends on how i feel at the time I shave as to which razor I use. My other favorite is the 3one6 . Thanks for sharing your video!

    • @AnotherCutAbove
      @AnotherCutAbove  4 роки тому +1

      Yeah i just didnt have the correct blade to go with the razor. The Feather Super Professional doesnt work for me in this razor sadly.

  • @jm_1214

    I appreciate the sharpness of feather blades but I get irritation in any razor I put them in.

    • @AnotherCutAbove
      @AnotherCutAbove  4 роки тому +1

      Thats murky water lol, i have heard so many people follow my way and still not get a great lather. It brings me to the theory that their soap might have reasonably poor quality control.

  • @EchoFoxtrot71
    @EchoFoxtrot71 4 роки тому +1

    Thank you! I was contemplating buying one of these razors. Not gonna do it now. Any razor that has any kind of drag creates irritation on my face. Hope you get to feeling gooder.

    I’ve used the feather pro and the feather pro guard in this razor and loved both! I do think it can be aggressive so you have to respect it. I have heavy growth, ymmv

  • @MrStavroske
    @MrStavroske 4 роки тому

    I have the green version, the Hulk, and i must say....great for shaving my head, but for the beard i have some razor burn because it's a bit to mutch....strange. I use the Feather PB20 blades, and for my head it gives a bbs-shave.

    I like very much that you were apologetic about "taking the lord's name one vein" mate. I am not at all Christian(am a Buddhist and one of my best mates is an Australian Mormon, of all bloody things!), but I bring my boys up to never say anything that could be offensive to religious people of any persuasion, and I try to teach my students the same.

    • @AnotherCutAbove
      @AnotherCutAbove  4 роки тому +1

      I am not in the slightest bit religious but i was brought up to respect people and their choices no matter their race or religion.

    Hey Cris! Hopefully that cast came off without a hitch my friend. sorry that razor didn't work out for you. As far as Christians go, yeah, there are a lot of different belief systems out there, but I think where people get in trouble is when they put tradition over the bible. then things can get REALLY out of hand lol!

    Linda's saying she knew there was a reason she likes you... I asked "Is it because he swears like a trooper?" She said it was because you tell it like it is. Does SHE swear like a trooper? Only when driving, watching football, and especially if she is at Celtic Park and taking issue with anyone not in a Celtic jersey🤣🍀

    Schick Pro-Line 30 blades are the BEST Artist club blades, followed by the Kai Captain (Pinks) and then Feather Pro-Guards. I hate the V2 version of the HAWK. The V1 is the best. I wish he'd go back to that style and make it in aluminum or stainless. Joe changed the head geometry on the V2 and i've never been able to get a good shave with it. Consequently it's also the same gemoetry he used on the razor he put out that takes the half DE blade which was also rough regardless of blade used (on my face). The geometry is just not good.

    Look on the bright side, Chris. At least it wasn't McDonald's! That shit make me depressed after the first bite.
