Hi Paul, thank you kindly for entertaining my request!!! Much obliged 😎 personally the Yuma is my favorite razor (that's saying a lot considering I've got the likes of blackland, Edwin Jager, Merkur etc etc). It always performs amazingly, I'm just surprised not many reviewers talk about it. And yes, you can occasionally find it on eBay for about 3 usd 😅 Anywho, thanks again 🙏🏻
Great shave and great channel, Paul. You are the difference between genuine and sincere. That's to say that you aren't trying to be a nice bloke; you are! Keep the dad jokes coming. I laugh out loud every time. So bad that you almost cringe yourself to death after them. My daughter has rolled her eyes many a time because I can't resist retelling them! Reference to the Yuma and its inherent decay... perhaps send it away for anodising? Powder coated metals will last longer and give it a lovely matt finish. I have been watching your videos for some time now and this is the first time I have commented... keep up the good work, Mr. H. P.s I loved your shelving unit that you keep your brushes on so much that I bought it from Amazon a few years back. Mine has a Hendricks tea set on it though. P.p.s I have 10 safety razors, 2 straight razors and a dozen brushes... entirely your fault.
We *“WETHEADS”* have a keen eye for that sort of thing. I can walk threw some regular store and see a bowl not ment for Shaving and think to ourselves.....“hey, that would be a killer Shave Bowl” 💈😁✌️💈
Great shave today with the Yuma Razor, which is new to me. I looked it up and its still available from Turkey via EBay for 10$ USD so not a very pricey Razor. Thanks for Sharing!
Good evening Paul! Lovely Sunflowers, thank you Mrs H! I do agree, some inexpensive shaving products do provide a pleasant experience. As you say, the key to enjoying any product is to not compare and use it for what it is. I love your jokes...poor Vincent "got one 'ere". I laughed out loud. Thanks. SOTD: Muhle R95 Rocca load with a 1970 Made in England Gillette Platinum Blade (1st use). Martin de Candre Rose shaving soap lathered with a That Darn Rob 26 mm Gel-tip badger brush. 3 passes plus pick-ups. Finished with Thayer's Rose scented skin toner and Soap Commander Love balm. BBS+ results. I smell like a walk through an English Rose garden. I looked at that Wilkinson Sword Quad 4 razor. Apparently, it is a propriety shave system that use unique clip-in blades...not a double DE razor system. I am sure it shaves well, but my opinion is Edgewell wants to make cartridge like margins off the blades. Pity. Sir, your shave and jokes are enjoyable indeed. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe and take care.
SOTD: vintage german 1930s' Sonnal razor,Ladas blade (4th and final use),vintage czechoslovakian 'Triumph' boar brush,Wilkinson blue shaving stick,bebe mild micelle water,Wilkinson classic aftershave. This vintage 'Sonnal' razor looks pretty similar to Paul's "Yuma",it's the same type of shape but my Sonnal has two different comb designs on each side,one more aggressive and the other more milder. That's not bad,you can do the first pass with the rougher side and the others with the smoother one...
Great shave, Paul! I’ve been working 7 days/week... haven’t had much time for an enjoyable shave myself, but I will be off on Saturday. Looking forward to a H&S chat 👍🏻😃
Hi Paul these shaves seem to come around quick. I agree you don’t have to spend a lot of money my daily shave cost me approximately 10p for the products ie soap, blade, toner, aftershave and post shave and that’s using good quality products. Enjoyed today’s video and good to see your keeping well as we haven’t seen Mrs H I trust she is in good health. Best wishes to you both.
Hey Paul, if you lay the razor in white vinegar, baking soda, and warm water mix for about 2 hours, you can brush away those persistent stains and get it back to mint condition. Cheers!
Hi Paul- Great mid-week shave; thank you! Lovely sunflowers from Mrs H; thank you! I hope you have a great rest of the week. Be safe and be well. See you on Sunday for the weekend shave. Best regards, as always, Paul!
Mrs H's 'Van Gogh's' sunflower display is brilliant. Seems like you had a good old fashion shave today, nick-free! Those are the ones I like the most. I've got one ear myself :) 0:51 Wilkinson Sword classic DE razor, Feather blade, Omega 10810 boar brush, Proraso Green shaving soap, Proraso Green after shave balm Your sense of Yuma is always fantastic Paul 22:06, thank you for making us laugh a bit :)
My SOTD (for tomorrow) will be: Gillette Heritage. Gillette Platinum blade (1st use). Yaqi Mysterious Space tuxedo brush. Stirling Soap Haverford. Post shave will be the left over soap applied to my face and left while I wash my shaving gear. I done this the other day with another Stirling Soap that I have, and my face looked and felt like I had applied a balm. Excellent post shave feel I've experienced with the Stirling Soap, they are definitely at the top of my list (along with Wickham) for performance and post shave feel.
I shouldn’t have laughed so much at that Van Gogh joke around the start but I’ve had to pause the video because of it. Haha love it Paul hope you’re well!
Hey Paul thank you for the great shave with some nice products, and of course Mrs H the flowers are lovely as usual. That song is my wife's favourite. My SOTD was Edwin Jagger DE89 as always with a 700 yellow sharp blade. I lathered up some Stirlings Scotspine Shaving Soapswith my PAA Aomic Rocket Brush and finished off with Thayers Lemon Scented Witch Hazel then Nivea Body Shave After Balm and got a BBS although that blade seemed very rough and aggressive. Take care :)
Great as always, happy shaving 🪒, hope your enjoying the nice weather in between the showers, your garden is looking lovely ours to with all the new spare time we have , have a safe week all👍🏻🏴🪒🪒🌈
Those Yuma razors were available in the US, on Ebay, and I ordered one several years after I first saw you use one. I still quite like mine. I don't fancy those blades, but I have some Original Nivea Men shaving cream, which I used again recently. It had been some time since I had used that. Cheers!
Greetings Paul, and Mrs. H, a most lovely arrangement. The Van Gogh joke was quite funny, I'm an art teacher, and I've never heard that one before.. The Yuma razor is reminiscent of the British Gillette Tech; the model with the diagonally lined pattern.
Hi Paul it’s great when you can shave with inexpensive gear and get a good result. My SOTD was a muhle Rocca R94 (you really should try one excellent razor) persona chrome platinum blade, Ingram menthol shave cream, Old Spice Aftershave and Lea aftershave balm. Beautiful sunflowers by MrsH so colourful all the best.
Morning Paul. Good shave, a good blade and soap makes any razor great. Love Mrs. Hs flower display today. Sunflowers just say summer. I use to work for a company that roasted sunflower seeds hear in the states. Enjoy your day.
Wonderful demonstration of how a great shave can be done on the cheap! I've had the opportunity to try some really cheap creams recently, and to be honest I've had no complaints...other than Supermax which was just weird!😁
Great shave. It’s been a month since starting wet shaving. I started out on budget products and I’m still a cheap shaver needless to say. Probably when I’m rich or save lots of money, I could spend it on expensive razors, soaps, brushes and aftershaves
great video and shave as usual keep staying safe....oh thank you for the tip on the Alumblock will do that from now on i was wondering why it started crumpeling cheers...Peter
My Wednesday SOTD is goin to be the Palmolive shave stick, Gillette British HD Rocket, Wilkinson Sword blade, Aqua Velva Cool Blue Aftershave Splash, and some Nivea Men's Cooling Lotion to lock it all in. I'm keeping it simple, as I'm smoking some pork butts for dinner later. Have a great day!!!
Hey Paul, I actually have one of those Wilkinson Sword Quad razors coming to me on Saturday, and I'll post it in the Wet Heads, for all to see, and let everyone know how it is.
Although many in the US say Adidas like you did in the first pronunciation, the second one is actually correct. Adidas is a mix of the name Adolf (Adi) Dassler. I think it was a split between him and his brother as to why there is a Puma brand. Don't know if I would want the first name either. LOL
Another good shave - goes to show you don’t need expensive gear, even though it does add to the enjoyment. Beautiful sunflowers - they always make me think of driving past fields of them in France. When are you going to mend that vase by the way?🤓
Still waiting to see you try the Gentleman’s face care club shave cream Paul! SOTD: GFCC premium shave cream, merkur progress, crystal blade, Thayers rose witch hazel, L’Oréal men expert sensitive birch sap balm, arko gold cologne.
Love It when you use the Yuma! When you can make a video using the Yuma, TOBS Grapefruit, Osage Rub and Omega Boar shaving brush, with the persona red de blades. I think does are your favorite shaving products. It would be a very interesting video! Ohh and your Red shaving bowl!
Great shave Paul 💈👍 Just shows you don't need to spend a fortune on a razor! Flowers stunning Mrs H 🌻Very appropriate the Van Gough flowers in the Vase with one ear 👂 🤣 Regards to you both from both of us! 👍💈🌻💈
I was in Serbia on Holiday and i went to an outside flee market and saw a few YUMA's it cost 1Yuma=100 Dinars that's about 13 Yuma saftey razor for 10£!
One still can get shield, almost bought some last week, but my soap allowance had gone over ( total 2) a pack of shield comes in 4. I have seen horn bowls around a lot more lately (not faux).
Nivea shaving cream currently is not quite the same as yours, Nivea cream in tin smells nothing like shaving cream. I don’t think it’s available in the UK. You can find it in Spain or Germany with no trouble finding it.
Have you tried the Nivea Sensitive shaving cream? It's available on ebay, made in Greece. For some reason it's not available in Nivea's home country Germany.
Hi Paul. Great shave as usual. Not so great jokes as usual. Ha. I want to try a single edge razor for a change. Vintage if possible. Do you have any recommendations for me? Thanks. Keep the jokes and menus coming.
Nice shave Paul, I will have to have a look for that nivea shaving cream got a good lather and by the sounds of it a nice smell I used to love the smell of the original sheild the one they sell now rubbish oh I see you have not fixed the handle on the vase lol bugger me your lucky my wife would of cornered me every day till I fixed it lol take care and have a great weekend 😀
Thanks Mark, yes a nice shaving cream this, I got away with not fixing that vase, as I said she may forget it was a repair, fill it with water, and it comes off again, so she said ok then, leave it.. ;-) lol take care Mark, all the best
Paul I have just received 96 Derby Shaving Soap sticks and 58 Palmolive shave stick soaps from a friend who has closed his barber shop down, will it be ok in 40 years time or will these shave sticks go rancid and is derby got a better smell than Arko and does it perform better than Arko.
The soaps I have which are 40 odd years old, work great for me, but they would have to be checked at the time of use of course. Arko and Derby work exactly the same for me, but Derby has a nicer scent to it. Both good perfroming soaps.
You can still get Shield soap over on Amazon: www.amazon.co.uk/Shield-Fresh-Aqua-Deodorising-Soap/dp/B00926UX0A/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=shield+soap&qid=1592433412&sr=8-1
