Yaqi Casino Clubs Brush - Muhle Rocca - Body Shop Macca Root 

They call it a Husky knot. Kevy 🙂👍

@@kevyshaves4109 Yes I know. I have the Goblin brush too. I was asking about the Emerald.

😂

Hi Kostas, I own the Rocca, all stainless and I'm not particularly impressed with it. It doesn't rinse that well unless you run it under a tap and I can't find anything really special about it. Having said that, I haven't used it for a long time....probably because it never impressed me. Maybe I should give it another try. I have a Karve, a 6S, a Blackbird, a Masamune & Nodachi, 5 Razorocks, a Rex Envoy, 2 3one6's, an AS-D2 and 2 Outlaws, standard and mild. Plus a few others. I tend to rotate these and leave out the Rocca. Why do you think it is so special? Maybe I should try a 7 'o clock yellow in it? I would really be interested in your views on it. Best wishes, Dave.

@@davesheppard8797 Hi Dave and thanks for your comment. I don't have the other razors you mentioned to compare her with so I couldn't give an accurate review on this matter. But I will tell you about my experience with the muhle Rocca on my facial hair and as you understand my opinion is very subjective, what's good in my face doesn't mean will be good in yours and vice versa. I have also the all stainless steel silver version, it was one of my first de razors I've purchased and done more than 200 shaves with around 10 different blades. Something important to mention is because I am a daily shaver I do one pass with the grain and touch ups around my moustache-goatee area. So I never used her AGT to comment she behaves while shaving against the grain. Even Muhle in the instruction doesn't recommend AGT usage. But I tell you with one pass I get a deep shave by using an open angle of attack and this is when you are gonna listen her singing to you. This is the razor I use to assess blades, most I've used so far did brilliantly apart from the treet platinum, I didn't like this blade even when I used it with my EJde89. YMMV as they say, give it another try but with your heavy artillery in your arsenal I understand why you've put her aside. It's the same with Stirling, every one was raving about them until other artisans came with their fancy formulas and then nobody was talking about Stirling. By the way the latter is my favorite soap of all times, I own 30 and love them all. Thanks for your comment and question wish you love the Rocca again...

@@kostasintzes9958 Many thanks kostas!! You are completely right in saying what you said....everyone's skin is different and reacts differently to razors. Being a fairly aggressive razor I would imagine it would be great for a one pass shave daily. I do 3 passes per shave and I shave about 3 times a week. If I shaved daily I would have to rethink everything. Next shave I will use my Rocca with a 7 o' clock yellow blade and report back to you. I am very pleased though that you have found a razor you love and that works well for you. Best wishes, Dave.

Hi again Kostas, As promised, I shaved this evening with my all stainless Rocca razor. A 4th use Gillette 7 o' clock yellow blade, no preshave oil, Saponificio 70th Anniversary soap, lathered with an Executive shaving big jock brush. I finished with Nivea Men sensitive balm. A nice 3 pass shave, 1 pass of each and a couple of pick-ups. I had a really pleasant shave, almost BBS and with a 4th use blade too. The Razor was smooth and I was able to draw it down my cheek and over my sharp jawline and onto my neck in one stroke. Most razors I have nick me when I do this, as I go over the jawline. This was very comfortable and quite like my 6S which is another razor I can go over my jawline with! So Kostas, I will be using my Rocca a lot more from now on and trying numerous blades. Best wishes, Dave.

@@davesheppard8797 Good evening Dave!!! I'm so glad the Rocca gained your trust and she's going to have a place in your razor rotation again. It was worth it. Take care yourself and enjoy your shaves.

23!

Glad to hear that Christopher 👍

They both have different knots. Both are excellent brushes. Kevy 😀

Got it. Thanks 👍

150? And where do you hide the rest?

@@T-R.e.x Not in the bathroom, I actually have a Den/Man Cave where I store my collection of shaving gear. I only have "in-use" stuff in the bathroom, which includes couple of soaps, 2 razors, 2 brushes and a bowl of blade tucks.😁

I loved the look of the Rex Ambassador but it always felt like it was going to bite, even on the lower settings. I tried to get along with it using many different blades, but in the end it just didnt work for me so i sold it. It's a lot of money to try it and find its not for you, but in the other hand, you might like it. I've heard the Rrex Konsul is a lot more useable and doesnt feel as aggressive as the Ambassador. The Ambassador on 2 for me would feel similar to the Rocca, but for me, the Rocca is a lot smoother. I actually prefereed the Pearl Flexi over the Ambassador. Cheers. Kevy 🙂

@@kevyshaves4109 Thank you so much for your time! Your answer helped a lot. I Love your videos! Have a nice shave today and any other day 😀 Cheers!

Cheers Ronnie 🙂👍

yaqi brushes are fantastic value for money, regards dapper shaves

I've used canned stuff before, it's just ok. I picked up some of the 100 year edition of Nivea cream. Kevy 🙂

@@kevyshaves4109 B&M also has the real shaving company new range. smells abit gross though. no idea what they were thinking with the scent

yqai have great brushes, regards dapper shaves

@@dappershaves agreed 🙌

I need to try the new Nivea cream. Kevy 🙂

@@kevyshaves4109 I think you'll like it. So easy to lather and has good residual thickness.

@@BartBuzz Is the lather thick? It's the Hemp Cream?

@@T-R.e.x The ingredients are typical of vegan-based soaps. I don't know if the hemp seed oil adds anything special. Seems like a gimmick to me? The soap does provide a nice thick lather if you use a brush. I also did a bowl lather and it lathers as well as any of my other soaps or creams. I really like how it can be applied directly to my brush for face lathering. And it doesn't take much. What also surprised me is that I only paid $3.47 at my local Walmart. That soap is a steal.

@@BartBuzz damn fantastic deal !!

Haha actually, I think it might of been the kosmo. Both muhle anyhow....

Thanks 🙂👍

Probably 👍

Cheers Andrew. I hope the birthday girl (and boy) had a lovely time. Kevy 🙂

Thank you for the kind words 🙂👍
