Great shave, Kevy! I'm sure you already realized this, but I was wrong in my unboxing when I said that the number on the bottom is the aggression chosen. Peter Cooke explained this to me and he is right! The number facing up is the aggression chosen. This means that you started on side 1 the .95mm and did the last two passes on the side 2 the 1.35mm. I did a review on this on side 2 (1.35mm) that'll air on Saturday. Like you I found the razor on side 2 to be extremely smooth!! Bonus info: The razor is an homage/copy of the French Bohin razor... Have a great week and Stay Safe! 🤙 #WAD
Great shave Kevy. I agree with you you should always take your time shaving. I know I do. It's my relaxing time. I love the lather I can make. Take care
It’d be worthwhile you revisiting this one. It’s a stunning razor when paired with a Wizamet Super Iridium blade on the mild plate. The mild plate is plenty aggressive and gives a beautiful close, smooth shave. Very efficient also.
I got an owners club a week ago , left it in water in fridge for 4 days and whipped up 15 soaps today with a cheap soap and an old tobs cream that gives me a rash and it's absolutely phenomenal already , can't wait to use it
That new Yaqi is the Quarter Pounder of the shaving world. I am impressed with the choice of blade gaps; since they're on the aggressive side of the spectrum. I'm checking Ali Express for pricing, and availability. The performance is unquestionably efficient. I can see where the razor presents some difficulty shaving under the nose. I never do, so it is inconsequential to me. Catie's was very slick, and creamy. This will be a must when using this razor. Then again, pre-shave oil, like St. James. or Van Yulay's. Thank you for bringing this latest offering by Yaqi to light. Cheers!
Get yourself some Ralon from Croatia and you're in for a treat. They are both made after Pitralon from Germany but Ralon is closer to the original formula from 1930. But same scent, old-school banana melon after, and really great for the skin after a shave 👍🏼
@@jensebu78 To my nose it smells like melon and a bit of really ripe banana (after 2 minutes of a intensive medicinal smell 🤷🏼♂️). Sometimes I really enjoy it and at other times I can't stand it, same as Brion (from Serbia). 😅 But the performance is undeniable 👍🏼
@Kevy Shaves another friend who knows vingages well said it is more similar to the Bohin Adjustable Safety Razor. At any rate a very interesting shave. Thanks, as always for giving us your thoughts on the razor!
I have had weepers and scrapes around my neck and I have fixed this issue by using very very light touch of a razor. treating the razor as if it was a feather to be gently glided around my neck. now I can have great shaves on my neck. Cheers.
Covid positive Kevy all of us. Keep watching all your videos to ease my mind. We did nothing wrong, still try to find where was the infection. Impossible.
Noooo!! I hope you all get over it quickly and it’s not too bad. There’s lots of new cases here in the UK just now along with flu. Take care mate. Let me know how you all are. Cheers. Kevy 🙂
@@kevyshaves4109 Thank you Kevy! Masks work, but in school it is very difficult. My daughter who started it, had some kind of fever for 3 days, some cough. It was nothing. She had 2 doses from February 2022. My wife had it much worse, persistent fever and very strong headache, and tiredness. No smell or taste. Today it was the first day without fever. 3 doses from December 2021. I was almost asymptomatic, low grade fever for 3 day but I didn't feel it at all. No headache, no tiredness, some stuffy nose. AZ & Bivalent shot from Pfizer (4 doses total, from September 2022). We are almost over it... (Vaccines do work)
@@kevyshaves4109 Full negative Kevy all of us, some cough remained and tiredness for my wife, the sense of smell very slowly returns. I had nothing, even positive, so it was like I didn't feel sick at all..
It looks a bit like some of the old school Buick car grills or some of SE safety razors you used in past vids. I have used Caties's Bubbles Tonsorium about four times. I don't know if it's the water or what, but I usually use a preshave with it. I do like the scent and I can see myself buying more from that brand.
STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING SUPER SOAKER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't mind floral either, sounds a nice soap. Seen weirder, remember that razor you used that looked like an ice cream cone lol!
That is defintely an odd duck of a razor. I really like the handle but I'm not sure I'd enjoy the head. Thanks for sharing you experience with it. Have a good day!
That's a weird looking razor head Kevy , don't think i would buy one . As for Boar brushes I'm with you Kevy better than badger, great shave mate have good week
Kevy que tal brother ?) I have a way of thinking about boar shaving brushes, they are similar to wines in that they both get better over time, compared to the safety razor WOW!!! Yaqi has used steroids in this presentation, the Bohemia model looks impressive wherever you look at it, it is similar to a robust and precise military tank !!
Great shave. The head of that razor to me looks like a Fatip open comb head on steroids. What drugs were those designers on when they designed that razor? I began trying new blades I haven’t tried before, with the first being the Astra SS, and it worked well for me actually like their counterpart SP blades. It’s gonna be weeks to finish trying out those samples, but there will be both good and bad coming out of these that I’m giving a shot. Have a good one!
Ha ha! It does look like the designers may have taken something! 😂 Trying out different blades is great fun. Are you using them all in the same razor? Kevy 👍
Kevy🪒🪒 Obviously this is a copied but modified head design of the flip style base plate, flattery! Don't think I'll go for this one. Swiss Pitralon is fantastic, great for the skin and the pear/banana scent is uniquely elegant. Great shave and results, thanks. Enjoy!
Looks like someone took mushrooms and consulted with the machine elves on a new razor. Yeah buddy! Even if that razor cuts good, I would not put it on my list of "maybe" gets. Looks like a xenomorph.
Attention to all wet shavers..... The towel over the shower screen is to hide Kevy wife, while she listens to Kevy about his wet shaving habit to find out how crazy her husband behavior talking to himself in front of the camera, before, posting this latest wet shaving clip on UA-cam.
Great Shave Kevy 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼Razor wow it's a Beast lol 😂

I'm agree with you Kevy, Pitralon is a great AS!!! I Iove it!!!
Eh great shave today 🪒 so do you like the boar shaving brush is it very scratches on your face ? nice shaving soap have a wonderful week 💈 ☃️
Great shave Kevy.
I agree with you you should always take your time shaving. I know I do. It's my relaxing time.
I love the lather I can make.
Take care
Well said!
🖖🏻 enjoy the shaves, regards dapper shaves
Your intro melody reminds me of the King of Queens episode where they went to the Carribean and ran out of money. "The sizzling lobsters are served."
I loved that show!!

nice video Kevy👍
I have three different Pitralon aftershaves, including this one. Always enjoy using them.
They are great. Kevy 🙂
Good to see you again! Nice shave as usual!
Thank you
That razor has really special look. Looking forward to try that out! ☺️
very clever the two levels of aggressiveness, just as my rockwell 6 , with the base blades

I’ll have to look out for some of that. Cheers. Kevy 🙂
Swiss Pitralon smells like honey to me.
I really got the Banana out of the Ralon. Good performance but the smell 🙈

You were having too much fun today. Nice review but I'm sticking with my 6S 😉
Good call Bart 🙂
Interesting razor. Looks like a copy of the French vintage Le Coq Caged Head.
A few people have mentioned that. It’s not one I was aware of. Thanks for the info. Kevy 🙂

Thats a blood bath but I think I like the razor. Thanks for your sometimes painful work that you do Kevy.

Good to know! Enjoy your shaves. Kevy 😊
he cut himself on the Bic blade, and the baddest thing there is
Great setup Kevy. Damn weird looking razor...looks like a radiator fitted to it. Stay well bud.

Thanks for the info Dave. Your knowledge is amazing. Cheers mate. Kevy 👍

Hello Kevy, as always great videos!!! 👍 Which is your favorite Semogue Boar ou mixture?
Boar is my favourite 👍
@@kevyshaves4109 that's what i thought!!!😁 I'm thinking on buying one, just still haven't decided if Cherrywood our taj resin!!!🤔
its jardin d'or not doir , you spelled it wrong dear kevy ( must be like " OR you and me ", saludos de mexico , here the weather is great
My bad. Thanks for the correction monsieur 🙂😉
🖖🏻 enjoy the lovely weather, regards dapper shaves
A few hours ago I bought the aftershave you used in this video because you made it sound nice. 👍🏻
Hope you like it!
@@kevyshaves4109I’m sure I will! It’s the banana scent description that did it for me. lol. Thanks for another great video.

Rockwell on steroids?
And then some! 😂
lots of steroids, regards dapper shaves

You know you've watched one or two too many when you're saying "his lather looks a bit grainy, he's going to be dipping the brush again soon!"
Ha ha! 😂
I am just guessing on the possible label's translation - garden of gold ?
Something like that 👍
razor looks very nice , maybe the design is to avoid cutting your cheeks haha , but nevertheless very nice design
Maybe you’re right 😂
Looks like someone took mushrooms and consulted with the machine elves on a new razor. Yeah buddy! Even if that razor cuts good, I would not put it on my list of "maybe" gets. Looks like a xenomorph.
Ha ha! It is a bit strange looking, but it gave me a decent shave all the same. Kevy 🙂👍
That is a knockoff of an old French razor. It had a reversible base plate long before Rockwell.
That's correct. This razor is based on the Bohin razor from the '30's, the first razor with reversible base plate.
Thanks for the info Mayur. Kevy 👍
❤💈🪒❤️
I'm a little surprised at how expensive this razor is considering it's manufactured in a sweatshop labor market.
Bic blade is the worst ever
Кровавая баня. Очень неподходящее лезвие к этому бритвенному станку.
