One and done pass shave with Stirling’s “Ben Franklin” and the Muhle R41 razor 

Wow, thank you so much for your kind words! I appreciate that a lot! I’m very happy to hear you enjoy my content, and hearing me ramble about all things wetshaving 😂! Thank you for joining me! And hope you have a great week ahead!

Thanks so much for watching man! Appreciate the kind words! Yeah I hear ya. The r41 definitely isn’t good for someone who shaves every day. I imagine that would cause way too much irritation. But it’s great for mowing down lots of growth. For sure Ben Franklin is a polarizing one. I like how stirling produced it even though they figured it wouldn’t be everyone’s cup of tea. Love the creativity. You have a great week as well!

Hey Chad thanks so much for watching! Appreciate the kind words brother! Hope you have a great week!

Hey Mike, thanks so much for watching! I appreciate the kind words regarding the lather! I do enjoy taking a lot of time with my lathers (although not necessary for a good shave, of course). Just my style I guess. If you haven’t already, you should check out Lawrie from UncleL shaves. He whips up some killer lathers in his bowl. Awesome to see. Hope you have a great Memorial Day!

@@DoubleAshaves thank you Aaron. Yes, I do watch uncle shaves. I am subscribed to his channel. OK you have a good week my friend. Talk to you soon.

You are right! Best lather! Even better than mine 😂

Hey Shannon, thanks so much for watching and the kind words. Hope all is well! Ben Franklin is definitely a unique scent. Not one for everybody but I love it. Awesome that Stirling has something for everyone though. Have a great weekend brother!

Thanks so much for watching my friend! Always appreciate your positive feedback :)! Thanks, I always thought Stirling lathered up just as good as any other soap. And you can’t beat that price! I got the boat drinks bath soap not long ago and really enjoyed the scent. I almost get a chocolatey scent from it. I love it! Hope you enjoy it! Have a great week and thanks again for tuning in!

@@DoubleAshaves 👍👍

Hey Scott thanks so much for tuning in man! Appreciate you. Hope you have a great week ahead!

Hey Joseph thanks so much for watching my man! Agreed man! R41 with the Astra green is just too good. It’s tough going back to mild razors after this, but on days when I don’t have much growth a mild razor gets the job done. Yeah, the Stirling bath soaps are a great way to sample the scents. I also figure it’s a great way to support Stirling. Whenever I purchase from them, I always get a bath soap too. Plus I’m sure it’s way better for your skin than bar soap you get at the supermarket. Hope you had a great weekend!

Hey Gary, thanks so much for watching brother! Appreciate your support. Lol, that made me crack up more than it should’ve. I like your idea of giving these bad boys nicknames. Hope you have a great Memorial day my friend. Cheers!

Thanks for watching Edwin! Glad to hear you’re also an r41 fan. Appreciate the recommendation for that ikon tek. Man I gotta look into that. I’m a sucker for aggressive razors. Thank you! I think you would like Ben Franklin. A very unique and interesting scent for sure. Great thing about Stirling is you can always grab samples. Hope you have a great week!

Hi Lawrie! Thanks so much for watching. Always appreciate your support and feedback. Yeah, this is really the only razor I have that can mow down most of my hair in one pass. Normally one pass leaves me unsatisfied. But this was a fun experimental video. Bay rum has always been a polarizing scent, that’s for sure. Can totally see how it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. If you haven’t already, I suggest giving paa’s atomic age bay rum a spin. There’s no clove, and many people who aren’t bay rum fans report to enjoy it. Have a great rest of your week!

Thanks for watching Robert! Appreciate your continued support! Awesome to hear you have so much Stirling! Interesting method with the aluminum can. A lot of different ways to store and use these samples. Most of my samples are stored in small makeup jars I got off Amazon. You know, there is something about this scent that does sort of remind you of old socks. Definitely an interesting and bizarre scent. But I would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy it. Have a great week!

Thanks for watching man and for the feedback. I might have those laying around somewhere actually. I gotta give that a go. Thanks for the recommendation and have a great week!

Thank you for tuning in my friend. Glad to hear you’re also a Stirling fan! I got a sample a while back of the satsuma splash and enjoyed it. Gotta snag it again at some point. Happy you’re enjoying that glacial stuff, the menthol in there is wild haha. Great for the summer. Hope you have a great week!

My man Chuck! Thanks for tuning and I appreciate the kind words. Happy you enjoyed the video! Hope you have a great rest of your week and good luck at the new position!

Thanks so much for tuning in man! Yeah, not a bad idea. I used to have a styptic pencil but lost it. That worked well too. Have a great week!

Hey Doug, thanks so much for your continued support my friend. Always appreciate when you stop by and give your feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed my review of Ben Franklin. It’s quite the unique scent from Stirling. I love it. In my opinion, if you’re a hobbyist who enjoys trying different soaps all the time, a big tub isn’t always necessary. Although I am very close, I still have yet to get through one completely. Samples are also a good way to test out stuff without going broke. Hope you have a great week ahead!

Hey Lee, thanks so much for watching! Always appreciate your support and feedback. Definitely a timeless combo with the r41 and Stirling. Never lets me down. Thanks for the cube recommendation. I’ll probably end up snagging one at some point. The Clown Fruit cube caught my eye so hopefully he drops that again this Halloween. You have a great Memorial Day as well.

Hello Glenn thanks so much for tuning in! I’m happy you snagged Ben Franklin! Truly a unique and creative scent. I love the direction Stirling went with this one. Appreciate the kind words regarding the lather! But Lawrie will forever remain the lather champion. Can’t get enough of watching him whip it up. Hope you guys are having a fun trip down south! Love the pictures with Mel and Chuck.

@@DoubleAshaves Having a fantastic time. We are on Sand Key, Florida with our family from Las Vegas now. Driving home on Wednesday. Great fun meeting Mel and Chuck. Best regards as always, Glenn

Thanks so much for watching Allen! Appreciate your support and kind words. I’m happy to hear you enjoyed the video! Hope you have a great rest of your week!

Thanks for watching man! lol yeah I’ve had a lot of people tell me my hair grows slow. Oh well. I have a lot of Northern European blood in me, so maybe that has something to do with it? Who knows. Anyway, have a great week!

Thanks so much for watching! I appreciate your blade recommendations! I think I have some persona laying around. I haven’t used them enough to get a good reading on them. But I plan on using them more often. The few times I did use them, I didn’t seem to have any issues. Never tried the 7ams but thanks for putting them on my radar. Hope you have a great week!

Thanks so much for tuning in brother, always appreciate you! Yeah, I figured. Love the creativity of the cube, but just not necessary to use if you’re shaving with good soap like this. Hope you have a great week ahead man!

Thanks so much for watching!! Appreciate your support and kind words! I have not, but have heard great things about the captains choice bay rum. I think you can get a sample of it off of maggards if you’re in the states. If you’re curious about the scent but don’t want to commit to the full tub. Hope you have a great week!

Thank you - I just placed a Maggards order for some samples lol
