SOTD Using El Diablo Straight Razor
It's a week before CNY and I haven't posted a video is quite a while so I thought I would do one today. This is just a quick video showing how I use a straight razor. I only did two passes because I didn't want to strip away too much of my skin since it's mid-winter in Canada and the air is super dry.

Here's my review of the Morihei #9000 grit Japanese whetstone. I used it right out of the box initially by touching up my Filarmonica straight razor. I then lapped the stone and again used the same razor and you can actually hear an audible difference in the feedback. What I was trying to show was the importance of lapping a new stone.

How To Use a Straight Razor, SOTD Jaques Lecoultre Au Sentier 7/8' Frameback
top video thank you .
Why is that music so loud in the background? So annoying!…
24 Ince knots? You could paint a wall with 24 inch. I think you mean 24mm knots.
as usual no one discusses the leather they chose
Sharpening again mister
How have you found the edge retention for your knives with your chopping board setup? I have got the masakage koishi gyuto - I have also got a bamboo chopping board. I have found that this combination produces terrible edge retention. I believe this is Because the Janka hardness of the bamboo being 1380 with a combination of the Formaldehyde glue which is used to join the bamboo strips in the board. As being a furniture maker myself and noticing that Formaldehyde glue layers in laminate plywood will wear out channels in tungsten carbide cutters I use. It got me thinking about why this knife looses an edge so rapidly on the bamboo board. I also thought about edge retention on my chisels which will generally be sharpened to a razor edge, because you never know when you might need a beard trim! =D. I find on poplar [540 Janka] the edge will stay sharp for a noticeably longer period than if say i was paring back european oak [1120 Janka]. Because of this study I have decided to order a single piece of Kiso-Hinoki which is 510 Janka. The wood grain also has high elasticity properties which is meant to help with edge retention.
Bamboo is not good as chopping board material ..... will decrease edge retention and can cause chipping on Japanese knives with their increased hardness levels and thin edges Do not use it there are much better options
@chrisbosman3372 I have had a kiso hinoki chopping board imported in from Japan, which i have been using for a few months. The edge retention for my masakage koishi is now great.
Owning a Les Lat coticule myself, I'm pretty convinced that the hybrid side imparts the keenest of edges that a coticule can give.
Can you compare 12000 Morihei to 16000 Shapton glass? What about buying both and try on the same razor?😮
Where do find the bolds?
Hello 👋 Isn't that a 2Band badger instead of a Silvertip one?
Just bought a triplex stropper and very glad to see this video on how to use it, thanx for posting
What brand and size glass is that you're putting the complete barbacide in? The glass the tools go in? Where could I find that? I like that shape. Thanks
Why are so many people (and I would bet mostly people who watch a lot of sharpening videos who are now sharpening experts) just so ANAL about polishing.
I'm guessing this guy just put a video on here and doesn't bother answering any questions? that's a big thumbs down and no subscription
Güzel bir çalışmaydı 🙏🙏
older video, but exactly what I was looking for. The tip with the soup spoon was excellent 👍
Thank you for the coin explanation! Really adds to the tradition of the knife.
How do you remove the stains from razors at 2:35?
Do quarter hollow razors still get extremely sharp or is it a very noticeable lower level of sharpness
The Company doesn't exist more!!!
The handle is cherry or teak wood??
I did this and it really works wonders. Lather stays nice and warm for longer than needed. Thank you so much! I think it even looks a lot better than most scuttles you can find in shops!
Great video. But please DO NOT store the handle on the middle this will break your hone. The handle is stored off to the side where the mechanism is.
Interesting stone. Doesn't really sound like a 9k stone even after lapping. Still sounds a bit aggressive for a 9k. I have a natural karaso, not cheap at all but one of my favorites. Very interesting.
I miss your shave videos. Please make more soon 👍🏼😁
Everything in the kitchen can be cut with 1000 grit, or soft Arkansas stone. Just need good technique but yes I do go up to 5k every time because it's shiny and lasts longer. :D
One question why don't you age I mean u look soo young damn brother
Cerax 1k is my benchmark for 1k period, fast and a true 1k for sure.
I looked around all the web but is not sold from anybody!!! Can you tell me if the shaving is good like a shavette? I ask because I tried a lot of Straight razors and were all very horrific (Dovo, Boker, Thiers Issard and so on!!!). Can you tell me if in this moment there is some site for buying it?
They are owned by Classic Shaving now so you need to go to classicshaving.com
I feel like 800 and 1000 are to close in grit. Ur again depends on the stone type and how garbage the label is lol, I actually bought the 75mm mew yesterday and I’m doing a review when or if it comes in lol. I did also buy it’s little brother the 24mm and I got it for a pair, they’re gorgeous brushes
I didn't understand if it is pubblicity!? Did you find that this razor shave well? Because you didn't say a world about it apart it wasn't honed well!
Great video. Would you be so kind, to give me more informations about the bowl where the brush is in? Maybe with a link to buy? Thank you in advance.
The bowl is actually two stacking bowls from a Korean supermarket. They are called dolsat.
Anchors are for good for when there is no stud? I didn’t know that
Make some more videos!!!!!!
Nice. Thanks. Do you know what year the Twinplex is?
Hi! Is this stone a good finisher to have a comfortable shave? Thanks from Italy!😊👍
Ugh ....fake shinogi line made by etching instead of the art of proper sharpening technique ..............but still no knife deserves to be used on a bamboo board, especially a Japanese aogami steel knife can chip on this board ...............in the instructions you show is clearly written in the third paragraph of USE: Your cutting surface is the biggest culprit of duling your knife. Use wood. End grain wood is especially good. Plastic can be fine too, but CERTAINLY NOT glass, granite or BAMBOO. ...............real question: ARE YOU IGNORANT?
Try using more of a shallow angle. You will find that the shaves will improve & there will be less irritation. Check out Lynn Abraham's & Dr Matt's tutorials. I've been using a straight on a daily basis since the 1980s. & Using skin stretching & a shallow angle has improved my shaves & made my edges last longer. Keep it up as it's the best way to shave.
Very nice, thank you for sharing. I did not realise that Le Grelot were a separate manufacturer to Thiers Issard. That was very interesting interesting.
A 24inch knot would be good for applying wallpaper paste. 😉
Can you explain why so many stones you put on the list? did you them all? Why make pubblicity??Are you a reseller?
What is the diameter of the Dolsot Bowl used in your video? This was very informative. Thank You!
Thanks for the video! How would you rate the Blue Tip compared with your other razors? Thanks!
I'm restoring a razor, and use pianowire for the pin, but it's impossible finding collars in that small size. Also I wonder if using stainless steel could make the razor more prone to rust due to galvanic difference?
While I'm not Korean I'm into the culture (really mostly TV, movies, and food). Never thought of this, but it's perfect.
The razor case in this video is nickel plated. Some were silver or gold plated. Check the model number /name for the finish.
Hi from Norway. You should make more of this. Just up the mic.
Thanks for this very great video👏👏👏 please can you tell me we're can I found that black scuttle. Hope that you can help me. Wish you a good time.
Good job! I do the same things...
Thanks for taking the time to shoot such a detailed video! I'm new to straight razor shaving with only two attempted shaves under my belt so far. The experience has been a frustrating and humbling, but your video has inspired me to press on. I still haven't succeeded with shaving my full chin without falling back to my double-edge safety razor. I'm a thin man with a concave area under my angular chin, so I think I will have to get creative with my angles and how I stretch my skin. Watching all the angles you use has given me confidence to keep experimenting to find what works for me.
it’s been a while since you started wetshaving. how are things going now? did you push on? regards dapper shaves
