You should rename this video "say hello to my little friend!"

Ha Ha! That is perfect!!!! I sometimes rename my videos to mix things up. I will definitely consider that one! I wish I had thought of it. Besides, I want to stay on Tony Montana's good side :)

@scottcampbell8299 10 лет назад

You lucky dog! I've been wanting one of those for decades but every time I've bid on one at a fair price I get outbid. They're still several found in the wild, at reasonable prices but yours looks like mint to NOS. Not the smallest razor in the world but certainly imo the best design for a small travel or bug-out kit that uses universally-sized DE blades and that's why I've been after one. Could well be the smallest that takes a standard size DE blade, definitely give you that. Still digging my 1940 4-piece open comb that looks a lot like the Merkur you'd used during a blizzard, broken down it's not taking up much room. This thing's sweet, problem is now everybody will want one and I'll keep getting outbid. Enjoy it, I know I would!

@geofatboy 10 лет назад

Lol! So I guess I should hang onto it then... :)

@samuelcabrera9456 10 лет назад

I have a small old double edge gillete razor like that one also. Except instead of two handlebars it's one small post, smaller than my pinky. I think it could give that one a run for its money for smallest razor.

@regularfella 8 лет назад

Normally I like your videos, but the intro music was super loud and obnoxious. ouch.

@geofatboy 8 лет назад

Yep Stephen, I think you're right. I have a lot of different intros and this one is definitely pretty obnoxious. I think I only used it this one time, which is a good thing. My ASMR fans will definitely not be happy with it.

@tcphll 10 лет назад

You showed this razor at the end of your video about the single edge Gem, saying you've never used it, but you show it now as if you just opened it and have never seen it. Not that I'm complaining, and I love your videos, it just seemed kind of odd. I'm guessing what you meant in your Gem SE video is that you haven't had a video demonstrating your using it.

Man that's ultra small. I don't think I can even use one that small to be honest about it. You should really do an updated version of your safety razor tutorial video and pick your top 5 safety razors. Alot of people would love to know which safety razors are your favorites and which ones you'd recomend. I call you the guru of wet shaving myself.

@skny11grl 10 лет назад

@johnblaze6225 10 лет назад

So just a general question. What's the difference between a high priced razor like Merkur and a $7 chrome-plated generic-branded razor ? If they both potentially use the same blade, does the desgin make that much of a difference? thanks. Like your vids..

@kwade220 10 лет назад

The major differences are precision and longevity between a cheap razor and a more expensive one. Cheaper ones are poorly designed where the blade might sit slightly crooked or loosly (cuts/razor burn) and in the long run breakd or tarnish. For the extra money you get what you pay for, I started wet shaving when I was 19 and im 24 now and I have a Merkur HD, it still looks brand new and functions exactly like it did 5 years ago out of the box. Its really worth the extra money man, Hope this helps with your purchase.

@geofatboy 8 лет назад

+Osca Alva You're right, this razor probably was a gimmick that someone thought of many years ago, went through the trouble to design it and have it manufactured. Someone put a lot of time and effort into the process. I wouldn't call it stupid... How many patents, trademarks, designs have you gotten/made? It may not be your cup of tea, but you gotta give credit to the team or person that made it. The great thing about shaving is that there are many different products to choose from, to suit many different tastes.
