Honestly...I have many straight razors and many DE Razors...BUT...If I had to buy only one straight razor experience it would be the Feather Artist Club Shavette...( of which I have several models...LOL). Nothing is sharper than machine sharpened blades and it's essentially the same experience as shaving with a true straight razor BUT you need to be much more careful (skillful) shaving with a Feather Shavette as they are much less forgiving. Cheers from Canada!!!
What wise words, Johan!👏....I'm struggling with the term "nerd" 🤓 😅 straight razor shaving is far too bloody for nerds ! What a comprehensive talk! Your a paragon of knowledge and ability. And all you said is true 👍.
Started out a few years ago on Boker Classic Spanish tip and Omega 48 (pig). BTW I couldn't avoid some degree of "soap craze" but managed to keep it to the most "popular" ones, like Proraso and Cella from Italy, Tabac from Deutschland, Monsavon au Lait from France, Arko stick from Turkey, Vergulde Hand from De Nederlanden and so on.... I'm afraid I'd need three maybe four faces at this point to run out of soap before I die, specially considering the fact I usually let my beard grow free every year march to august/september.
Buy a straight razor...save some money....10 brushes 10 soaps 4 creams...4 stones, roll of tape..all i need now is the stone holder..oh and a bath for my stones😂. Ill have the bankloan paid of in 5 years.😂😅..hopfully my hands will stay steady for another 30 years.
It blows me away how great your English is. Is that normal in Sweden? Btw great video. Been fascinated with straights for years- but all they require scares me right back to my double edge lol. Seems like a steep learning curve 🪒
