Great vid. I love your energy. Very down to earth and no-nonsense. You don't do fake positivity, but you are not a negative person. Very refreshing to watch a genuine person giving their feedback without feeling like they will always endorse everything they touch, or will talk down on anything that isn't a sponsored brand. Thank you for doing great work!
Great shave Mike, great review and beautiful razor. That label on that soap container is pretty cool too. ill have to look for that soap when I get a chance. Halloween is probably one of my favorite holidays.
Nice shave Mike, the Avanti is a great looking razor, I have the Merkur (short handle) and if you don’t line up the cap correctly the razor won’t go to setting 1.
Mike I love the progress but the Parker Varient open comb is really great with a much better grip. I have them both. The variant open comb is the same head shape. The variant had some issues they corrected on the variant open comb it’s a home run! Great review
Very good! Yaqi has really come a long way from the razors that they first produced and even their expensive razors are pretty good. I've never used the Progress, so I'm not sure this would be my thing, especially with this style of lather channels. I do have a razor with similar channels and because I'm not an every day shaver, they get clogged up pretty easy. You'll have to run the Torqx maxed out and maybe you'll get some blade feel then. The design is so extreme looking, it really is surprising it's so mild. Definitely one that I'll have to get an try out, because I'm super curious now-lol! Have a great weekend!
Well, they unsubbed me again. I've subbed your channel at least four times, and somehow get unsubbed whenever I watch on my TV. Anyhow, another great review.
In these Inflationary Times. HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs Use any hard Bar Soap, Tallow or Glycerin based Soaps out there? To fit in any Mugs or Cups? Like" (Mitchells' Wool Fat or Arko Sticks. Just to name a few of them?) You can mix and match your old Soaps? Cut up the soap on a paper plate, pour your soap chunks with the shavings from the Paper Plate into a Mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, and microwave your soap. For about a minute or so? Place a paper plate under your mug in case it bubbles out of your cup? 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. Save your Money, spend it on your wife, don't listen to the shave Mafia. It saves me time and Money. New Year. Your Mileage may vary? Wheelchair Larry

Thanks most of the reviews I’m now seeing seems to also say it’s leaning on the mild side. It is very odd to me as well. Have a great weekend

It’s all good, no worries

Rather get a Rockwell 6s if its $165 for a Chinese razor
I get it. The Rockwell 6S is an amazing razor.
How many of us wonder why mercur ain't objecting to copyright violations by Chinese co 😂
The Progress design is from the 1950s, so any patents on it are long since expired.
