Really enjoy Sudsy Soapery products. I currently have 5 of their soaps. Most often there is a companion balm and after shave. NO, I don't work for them.

I reckon this razor would be a great choice for someone with a beard, a slim head would make it easier to shave finicky places: a neckline or cheekline etc, it'll be more nimble and wouldn't obscure your vision so much. I like that Yaqi try new things, even thing's no one is asking for.

Always glad to do my bit, even if it sounds like bumbling rambling to me when I have to edit the video :-) Not sure if this head will even come to market, but I think that, even with these issues, there will be people ready to jump on it, and they may find it to be a great razor for them!

Nice soap and aftershave. I just don't need any more! Can only wonder if Yaqi will come out with a razor accepting Artist Club, GEM or Injector blades. Those thicker blades seem to work better for me.
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
Interesting idea, and I could see them trying that out, especially with the Supply / Shark Tank thing at the moment. I do like how much they are experimenting, which means taking risks and sometimes missing the mark. That's fine, learn from these risks and keep improving the product line! You don't NEED anymore, but want??

I recently started using Sudsy Soapery Unscented Shave Soap and matching after shave balm. I really like the formula and more importantly, so does my skin. I’m a SE Injector shaver, but I might have to try the Yaqi 1/2 DE down the road. Thanks for a great wet shaving channel. 🏁🏁🏁
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
Sudsy Soapery makes great soaps, and I too am a big fan. I hope more people try them out! If you love the injector, maybe try the Supply razor? Not sure what the new pricing may look like, but that is another great modern injector style razor.

Michael Freedberg I placed my order with Santa before the markup and I heard from one of his production elves that they were able to salvage a factory second at an even better price 😬. I will give you some “feedback” after December 25th. I do own their synthetic brush (which I Love) and I use their injector blades in my NOS 1970 Schick Injector Razor.
@tonycornetta
@tonycornetta 4 года назад
I think the main benefit of this razor is that if you want to snap a new DE blade in half, now you can use both halves instead of having essentially a broken DE blade. Sometimes you just want snap a blade in half and now this gives you a better excuse to do so.
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
I can honestly say I cannot remember the last time I just wanted to snap a blade in half :-)

Nice shave Michael💈 I suppose being the head is 1/2 lighter makes it more enjoyable to some folks, I see no advantage YMMV. Capt. Choice discontinued their "North" line of products and brought out "Nor'easter", 🤔 Why? They could have just added menthol to the "North" and called it "Way North", keeping the original as an option which is fantastic IMO. Oh well, I stocked up on the original "North", I'm good. Video and review was well received as always👍 Enjoy!
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
I think North was a more juniper styled scent, if I remember correctly, and it may not have sold enough for them to keep it. I totally get it, they cannot afford to retain products that don't sell well, even if that means that those customers who did love it end up having to bid the product a fond farewell. Thanks for watching!!

Have you ever tried the RazoRock baby smooth razor? I have very sensitive skin and of all of my razors the baby smooth gives me the very best smooth close shave. I enjoy all of the info you share on your channel and I love the out tro music also.
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
Have I ever tried it? God yes, so many times! Great razor, which benefits from the distinct curvature of the blade in the head. Efficient smooth shaves! The outro? "Booty Swing" by Parov Stelar, I could listen to that song every day and I would feel like dancing every time!

@MrUlski 4 года назад
There is one point of half de blades and that is when hairdressers uses half a de blade in a shavette to create sharp edges etc during a haircut only using half a blade per customer. The razor you showed serves no purpose - it will shave like a de just with more fiddly mounting of the blade, and the blade is hold less secure than in a de razor due to the holes not being used for their intended purpose.
@scottishjimmy9813
@scottishjimmy9813 4 года назад
MrUlski S Davidson has an interesting point noted above. Tbh I have started using a DE recently and am not in the habit of turning it around and using the other side. Two reasons; one I am use to carts and this was never an option and two I like the razor blade to have some water on it as it makes it slicker when shaving. Now with experience this may well change but I could see the reason for this type of razor. Plus it will be more nimble.
@MrUlski
@MrUlski 4 года назад
Scottish Jimmy If you want a slimmer lighter razor I imagine that a Schick injector might be a better option
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
Not sure either what the real benefit it; it may feel more nimble, but then you have to fiddle with the blade?? I would like to see them add two tabs to the corners to help the blade placement feel more stable and consistent.
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
@Scottish Jimmy, I only ever shave with one side, then rinse and flip to the other side of the DE head. I think it looks cool, but not sure it really makes any difference over the DE version of this head. I would agree, by the way, with the recommendation to try an injector razor, they offer great shaves and feel nimble in use!

"so, what you guys think about our new product line? we should step up our game. so many other companies are releasing new products. even gillette came with a new razor." "yeah, so, we should take any of our old models, and....split the head in half. Then, double our income by selling the same product twice" "wow, terence, that's a great idea. but do you think our customers will fall for that?" "sure thing, they are addicts"

Great shave Michael. I have RazoRock's Eco (pronounced eeko) half DE blade singe edge razor and it's awesome. Basically there's a lot of people out there that only use one side of a standard DE razor during a shave and they tend to waste a lot of blades while shaving. This type of razor eliminates that. Here's the link to it: www.italianbarber.com/collections/safety-razors/products/razorock-eco-safety-razor
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
Why are they only using one side of the razor blade? Are they not flipping over the head to use the other blade edge?? I cannot imagine why a person would do that :-)

The RR Eco seems to have a better support method, this one seems to be not well designed.... it's a half idea that produced a half blade razor. My five cents for people: use a normal DE razor....who on earth wants 1/2 blade.... if so : use a shavette--- gives a better shave
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
I also do not buy the economics argument: you are not getting more shaves out of a blade just because you snap it in half, you just get the same number per edge :-)
@DwightMS1
@DwightMS1 4 года назад
Michael, I think some manufacturers of shaving gear are taking advantage of this rabid wet-shaving craze. It seems that once a guy gets the bug, he wants to try everything he perceives as new or different, even a stupid design like this one. It's obvious that a half-blade will last half as long as a whole one, so what's the point?
@mfreedberg
@mfreedberg 4 года назад
I don't really know, I think the DE head designs are all serving a clear purpose that this one is missing -- but I have a feeling it may still sell well enough to warrant the product development costs.
