Moin Heiko, sehr schöne Rasur! Den Yintal V7 finde ich auch richtig gut! Er gehört fest in meine TOP 10, allein schon weil er in Sachen Edelstahl ein echter Preis-Leistungs-Sieger ist. Er verfügt in meinen Augen über die optimale Balance zwischen Effektivität und Hautschonung! Bin beruhigt, dass es Artur gut geht 👍 Danke dir für die Info! Herzliche Grüße Jörg
Hallo Heiko, vielen Dank für deine äußerst ausfürliche, präzise und zutreffende Vorstellung des Yintal 316L. Mit diesem Yintal als einzigen Rasierhobel könnte man durchaus glücklich werden. Beachtet man die genaue Wuchsrichtung des Barthaares, kann man aus diesen relativ milden Rasierhobeln noch mehr Glätte beim Rasurergebnis herausholen. Ich bedanke mich ebenfalls an eurem Interesse an meinem Wohlergehen. Bis auf einen absoluten Zeitmangel und Stress geht es mir gut. Monmentan besteht meine Freizeit aus täglich 10 Minuten, die ich überhaupt sitzend genießen kann. In unserem Hobby bleibt auch bei solchen Umständen zumindest dessen Ausübung als täglich notwendige Praxis im Badezimmer erhalten. Dabei gab es jedoch in den letzten Monaten wenig Abwechslung. Hauptsächlich kam ein Timor CC mit einer Nacet-Rasierklinge oder der Design 94 Aviation94 mit einer Feather-Rasierklinge zum Einsatz. Gerade der Aviation94 konnte zeigen wie das Gesicht ohne jegliche Rötungen aussehen kann. Ich werde mich noch heute bei Jörg melden und mich ausführlich bei ihm erklären. In den nächsten Wochen werden die Dinge für mich vorraussichtlich wieder etwas zu Ruhe kommen. Natürlich vermisse ich den Kontakt zur Community und werde mich bald wieder regelmäßig und häufig an ihr beteiligen. Liebe Grüße Artur
Da bin ich ja beruhigt. Als Jörg mir geschrieben hatte, ist es mir erst richtig bewusst geworden, dass es sehr ruhig um Dich geworden ist. Gut von dir zu hören.
Prima! Dann können wir ja wieder auf 'Defcon 5' gehen... Erklärungen sind übrigens nicht notwendig. Hauptsache du bist wohl auf und hast bald wieder etwas mehr Zeit für dich! Herzliche Grüße Jörg
Today i tried an aggressive Razor/Blade combo, that i've never tried before... My shave of the day was: Muhle R41 GS, Feather (2nd use) DE Blade, KenSurfs shaving brush, PAA Preshave Cube, Dovo Berlin Barber shave soap, 2 passes, few pick-ups, Using the Alum block after, only gave a few tingles around my Adams apple, Thayers Unscented witch hazel, Reuzel Aftershave, Nivea Sensitive Aftershave Balm. Knowing the aggressiveness of the Combo, i went extra light on the touch, and all went very well 🙂
I've used the R41 plenty of times before with milder blades, and i've also used the Feathers plenty of times before in milder razors, so i know both of them very well. I think it's because i've gotten the balance of the R41, and the extra light touch in my hand, that it went well. @@Heiko-shaves
Hi Heiko! Congratulations to 100 videos. By the way, many say (because the razor even looks like the dscosmestic T7) that Liveben is the cheap brand from dscosmestic, that's why the shaving bowl looks the same and the razor name is nearly the same too with T7 and V7. Greetings from Germany Christian
Forgot to add that I think it would be fun to see that early morning shave video. All you would need to do is list the items you are using. Looking forward to seeing it. 😀
Great video Heiko. Glad to see a decent review of this razor. I got this but with the timeless plaid clone handle almost 2 weeks ago. After using it I'm now waiting on 2 more to arrive hopefully by next week. So I'll have one for travel, one for home, and one spare. This thing is just as smooth as my razorock mamba .70 but just a hair more aggressive and a tad more efficient which i expected with it having the .86 gap. The razorock mamba 70 is 70 dollars and this yintal is 25-35 depending on whatever the price is that day and for the combination handle model you choose. My awaiting order is for the exact same one you have and another with the plaid handle. I have to order a couple more to give away as presents.
Congrats on 100th video. Orange Chill sounds like an interesting combination. I agree with you, Stirling is really great quality for a great price, and bonus, it is nice to support a local mom and pop shop right here in the good old USA. I hope Artur is well and we get to hear from him soon.
Excellent razor for the price. I picked up one last summer. You can get the colored tips from PAA, I got one in Gillette red and it gave the razor a 50's Gillette red tip look. The handle also works well with other razors. The Stirling stuff always feels great on the skin. Great shave Heiko!
Nice shave Heiko. I have the Cremo shave cream and use it as a pre electric shave if I don't have enough time for a complete wet shave. Also, Cremo is not meant to lather up like other soaps or creams. I have Sterlings Orange Chill and like you I love mentholated shave soap and after shaves. Interesting razor. Have a great weekend. 👍
So you continued with that discussion of mild razor and something about blades. I tried a Feather blade for first time, about three years ago. Upon a first pass I felt not any blade feel; but all the hair with the strokes were being very closely cut.
Mild and efficient is the name of the game. I think mild razors are the perfect use case for Feather blades. Those really sharp blades make a mild razor very effective.
100th video, WOW Times flies when having fun because from my side it looks like 50 max .... tjeeeez amazing achievement, well done ! Because you like the Wikinson blades so much, my suggestion is to try the Gillette/Wilkinson Saloon Pack blade ( Kensurfs uses them often and is in my top 3 bladelist ) I hope you get them / try them because I am anxious to know if you like them as much / better then the regular black Wilkinson blades.
I don't know razor designs. But the design looks lime it is mimicking a vintage red tail. As the 4th piece seems to replicate a turning butterfly or adjusting knob. Even even though it doesn't function as one. Like fake turbo intakes on a car. For looks only.
I guess it indicates the look of the Gillette super speed but that is really where the similarities end. The handle is much thicker and the head is completely different.
When you talked about the first pass and the rough feeling - I have a different impression about that. A sharper blade can eliminate that rough feeling. I am sure of this, at least based on my experience. That rough feeling almost for certain means that you could have used instead a sharper blade and achieve better and more comfortable results for the first-pass.
$ 40 CHEAP Muhle r89 safety razor WITH Muhle r89, R41 or Edwin Jagger HEADs ONLY WITH IKON HANDLE better shave the Ikon handle is heavier, the head will not come loose from the handle, has a better grip, it's more user-friendly to shave with, it's only $20 when i bought my handle through Amazon Your mileage may vary? wheelchair larry

HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs Do any Pucks or bar Soaps out there? You can mix and match old Soaps? to fit in any Mugs or Cups? Like (Mitchells' Wool Fat or Arko Sticks. Just to name a few of them?) Cut the bar soap up on a paper plate, pour the soap, shavings and chunks from your plate into a mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, microwave your soap and cups or mugs? put your paper plate under your cup in case it bubbles out of your cup? for a minute or so? If it foams up, STOP. The water keeps it from burning itself up. (DON'T OVER WATER YOUR SOAP??) Easy, does it? Let cool don't want to Crack the Mugs or Cups you're using? (You just want it to Congeal in your Mug or Cup') it is very hot and watery'''''. let it cool in PLACE'. after it cools, put it in a Sunny Window, until the Soap hardens? When using your soaps, use Dry Brush Less Water. It thickens the soap, making it easier to use on your face. (You can use any Hard Soaps You like??) Save your Money, spend it on your wife, don't listen to the shave Mafia. It saves me time and Money in these Inflationary Times. Your mileage may vary? Wheelchair Larry Happy New Year @@Heiko-shaves
