Hey Michael it’s been awhile! My 28th birthday was November 6th and I figured I’d get myself something nice so I’m over here browsing on eBay and I come across a 1948-1950 Gillette Aristocrat for $25.00 good condition with blades and case!! I basically stole it! Then a while ago I posted on one of the FB BST groups looking for a Parker Varient and someone message me saying I can have theirs for $10!!! There’s one small catch... it was one of the first ones where the black platting came off a little bit... do I give-a-hoot??? Negative.. boy I had a good day! Then went ahead and ordered fine accoutrements fresh vetiver aftershave and soap. Based on Tom Fords “Grey Vetiver” 💈😁✌️💈

The Fine Fresh Vetiver AS splash is one of my favourite splashes. Would recommend Fine Platinum if you like the Creed Aventus smell.

Birthday shave for me today, birth year and quarter Gillette President razor, original Shulton Old Spice trio, Swede blade and Simpson brush😊 Vintage shave for a vintage man👌 Nice shave there Michael💈💈 Soap looks good and slick. Too bad those blades don't work for you, they're slightly more expensive than most. Epsilon is close to Floid Blue, but there is a difference. I have two bottles of Floid Blue, wonderful. Great video and review. Enjoy!

Hi Michael- Great shave and soap re-visit; thank you! This is a nice soap. I was able to order the Pots of Milk earlier in the year from Maggard and was lucky I did! I didn’t realize it was going out of production. Well, I hope you have a great week ahead and best regards, as always!

Always very valid points when you refer to the difference between an incident free shave versus the hunt for BBS perfection. I always would watch these videos and ask myself the question "What constitutes a great shave?" It's taken me a good few shaves and finding the best tools to establish the answer that, but I have learned not to over-do it.
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
It is the single best piece of advice I can offer: don't overdo it. All the great lather and best razor and blade don't mean much if you just keep over-shaving.

Great shave Michael. I love my Marvel DE razor and those blades worked well for me. Sadly Meisner Tremonia discontinued both that soap that you used and the one I wanted to try which was the Strong & Scottish which was suppose to smell like scotch whisky. Oh, Epsilon Blue Medierranean now has a matching shave soap to their aftershave splash over at Maggard Razors.

Hi, Michael. I've been looking for Pots of Milk myself and finding none. After seeing your video I made a last ditch effort, found some at the English Shaving Co. in Sheffield, and ordered a jar. If you're interested, do act quickly. There's very little left.
@Warren.I
@Warren.I 4 года назад
PS: I heard from a European vendor that it's about more than Pots of Milk. Apparently the company fell on hard times and has had to reorganize. One of the two original co-owners has taken full control of the business. The good news is that they are apparently about to resume production and shipments to vendors.

That may come down to money. The Marvel is cheaper, so there is that. The Karve is just so good, and I think I would choose it over the Marvel -- but the Marvel is also so good. On longevity alone though, the Karve.

I do have a question that I should have asked before. Would you say that the Marvel razor is more aggressive than, say, the Baby Smooth?
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
Yes, more "aggressive" but still very comfortable. The Baby Smooth has very little blade feel, while the Marvel lets you feel the blade more but without a loss of comfort. If I had to pick one of the two, I think it would be the Marvel.

@borbetomagus
@borbetomagus 4 года назад
Try scooping out soap from the container, then load that soap into the brush from another 'loading bowl'. If you care to sell/gift the soap at some future date your soap will be more attractive to another wet-shaver (since the surface hasn't broken down as much). I usually can make plenty of lather with only a pea-sized amount of soap and a synthetic brush, extracting lather periodically from the knot and re-working it with small amounts of water. I've only had an an issue of discoloration with Cella, but it still works great.

@@borbetomagus I like Cella. The only bowl of soap I have that have noticed hardness, dryness and cracking is some Aqua Do Parma. I have an unused bowl of the old discontinued colonia fragrance but it hasn't done cracked at all. It's just dry. I'm hoping a bit of water will rejuvenate it.
@borbetomagus
@borbetomagus 4 года назад
Also works with triple milled soaps. Just scrape 6-10 flakes of soap, distribute and press throughout bottom of loading bowl. I use a $2 IMUSA salsa bowl (with a barely textured semi-spherical bowl), though Sterling makes (or re-brands) a collapsible silicone lather bowl with nodules. It appears that those nodules open up a shaving brush knot to make lather a little more efficiently, though I haven't tried it.

I see almost everyone uses their sink to hold water for shaving. I used to do this until about 10 years ago. I'm paranoid of infection risks. I think about the nastiness that goes into sinks. People washing their hands. People spitting in them. Water getting contaminated from the drainage pipes and putting germs into the bowl. I'm curious if any fellow shavers take any special precautions when using their sinks. I just leave the hot water running intermittently while shaving.
