just bought my first razor after watching your videos, I wanted to save money on blades going into college but discovered that this is way more that just a cheaper way to shave. thanks
I have only spent $8 bucks on 4 packs of 5 blades this past year. Using a van der Hagen safety razor, and Cremo shave cream with Curve black post shave balm. It can be non expensive but people like to waste money on unnecessary stuff I guess.
@@lanceberry867 Naaa, he'd be fine with it. There might be some good alcohol burn action at the end but everyone enjoys that part of the videos anyway. It's always enjoyable:)
My brother and myself are recent converts to wet shaving - one of the best moves we have made! Shaving is a pleasure now and it's great to try new soaps and aftershaves. We are in Newcastle upon Tyne and its great to know you are an honorary Geordie too! Your channel is essential viewing for us.
Nice shave Ken💈💈 Yeah the Stirling razor showed its power against your growth, not horrible but present. Beautiful razors, I checked them out when first available, alas not for me. Maybe Rod will come out with a milder base plate some day, although he did design this razor as aggressive. Sweet looking brush, handle shape is cool. Great video and as always, gotta love the burn...😱 Enjoy!
I have one and the standard plate is similar aggressive to muhle R41 if that helps, the hyper plate is for very few people in my opinion although i use it
Great shave and video. Oh you need a T-shirt with the Text ooohh what a burn, Paul H has one with a bloody DE blade just missing his 3,2,1 pickup time baby on it stay safe, cheers....Peter
Sir, I take great satisfaction from the mastery of the razor you have on video. Nothing like a good piece of morning shave to perk up the mood! Thanks for your awesome content.
Great shave. I took photography classes when I was in high school. It was fun being there and the people in that class were cool. The Proraso Green soap was what I frequently used when I didn’t have any artisan soaps in my den, which was a huge struggle I dealt with in my first year of wet shaving. Have a great day
Nice shave. Gotta love the burn. I'd love to go to Italy some time and get a cut & shave at a traditional barber shop too. No doubt a wonderful experience. Have a good week.
Great shave Ken, I like the look of both the razor and your brush handle 😎👍 I will look forward to the video at your brother's den seeing his new pinball machines. Have a great week. Very best regards Gordon 😊👍👌👊
It is a keeper Ken, I have one all the way over here in Europe. Sent by the Stirling co with great customer service. They are top notch and the razor is my favorite
Hi Ken, I liked that brush so I ordered one from Amazon at 9.00pm last night. It arrived about an hour ago. Red handle and the leaflet says 26mm manchurian knot. I will do a couple of test lathers before I use it properly to break it in. You had a great shave here mate! Stay safe, Dave.
@@kensurfs Thanks Ken! Further to me telling you I had bought the brush, I have test lathered it and used it twice for a shave. A great brush and so far it has not shed one hair!! So a great buy after watching you use it. Many thanks!! Stay safe Sir! Dave.
Hey Ken, glad to hear life is getting back to normal. Watched Wrath of man couple of weeks ago in theater too, it's a really good movie, liked it more then the French original.
I've been looking for a travel razor. I love that case too. I already have your limited edition 2021. I hope that summer addition one with the special boar knot works out I will definitely give that one a try. Great shave Ken. Take care and stay safe
Welcome back Ken. I really must get that brush, as I prefer boar and badger brushes. I respect your opinion on razor aggressiveness because I've discovered we share the same skin profile. Some blokes on YT could shave with an axe and claim it's a mild shave, lol. Anyhow, keep the informing and fun content coming!
Ken, you should be using the "Chella Cool" by Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements aftershave! Isn't this Italia aftershave used by Sinatra Lennon a couple of days back?
Great video Ken. My current go to camera is the EOS R6 and 5D Mark 4. I mainly shoot stills but in the process of moving across states. Take care. Maybe I will get back into videos when I move as I should have more space to film. Take care.
❤🙏 another great shavevideo...about proraso someone told me they changed the formula so the scent is less? Donno if its new batches will be like that...any one know?
Ken, I'm curious if you have any horse hair brushes in your collection. If you do, would you consider including it in a shave demo? Would love to know your opinions on that type of brush.
I did not go to theaters BEFORE Covid 19. I am NOT going to theaters during Covid 19( when 8 fully vaccinated NY Yankees become infected; SOMETHING IS OFF. I don't give a tinker's damn what the CDC's Rochelle Walensky says about it) and I will not be going to theaters AFTER(if there is such a thing) Covid 19...I have a large enough screen and Internet Streams at home. But as the saying goes, "You do you".... ;-)
And he remains... the nicest man in wet shaving.
Ken Surfs is the MisterRogers of wet shaving! (The nicest man in wet shaving!)
Thank you
Your aftershave burn reactions are the best, my friend. Great shave! Have a great day.👊

It is definitely one to look up to!

Nice shave Ken. I'm glad the razor worked well for you. Excellent burn action at the end too:)
Not sure Ken should ever try the Hyper plate, 😂😂
@@lanceberry867 Ken could pull it off for sure:)
@@IAMCDB yes but i worry he might pull his face off 😮😮

West Monroe! HEEEEYYYYY! grew up there and after graduation I moved a half hour down I-20 to Ruston, LA.
Stirlings new stainless steel razor is one of my favorites. I like the hyper aggressive base plate.

Yay! New York is OPEN baby! Ken, did you get a sun tan or a sun burn? Stay healthy and stay safe! God bless you, Ken & family!
Thank you. Stay Safe
I do great with my R41 and Karve SB G plate so this might be something for me - thanks Ken
👍👍
Nice shave as always Ken 💈
And when I saw the name of the brush, it reminds me of the movie Manchurian Candidate with Denzel Washington. 👍
👍👍
Cool looking razor!

I’m from West Monroe also Ken. How cool.
Howdy Ken, from Dallas. Might have to check out that razor now since it’s named after my hometown 👍🏻

Review the plow 2.0 by manscaped. A three price razor, quite heavy and beautiful color.
@@MikeKlaxton 🤔
@@MikeKlaxton no, the 4.0 Is for the lawnmower. The plow is still the 2.0
I’ll try
Thanks for review, Ken 🖐🙂👍💈
Thank you
Is that your favourite blade? Very nice shave, love synthetic brushes. Love your vids
Wilkinson Sword Gillette
❤🙏 another great shavevideo...about proraso someone told me they changed the formula so the scent is less? Donno if its new batches will be like that...any one know?
👍👍💈
Ken, I'm curious if you have any horse hair brushes in your collection. If you do, would you consider including it in a shave demo? Would love to know your opinions on that type of brush.
I have a few. Lots of videos on them. Cremo and Via Long
@@kensurfs Thanks Ken...I'll go watch those and check them out.
Great shave today. Nice looking razor. Was that aftershave almond like Cella soap? Just curious
👍👍
That Stirling razor looks cool, but it's just a little outside my price range. I'm probably going to pick up some of their coffee though.
👍👍
Great video.
Thx
Just bought 200 feather blades on Ebay $21.95 - Woo Hoo !

I'm going to support you can be? Great shave Man Kensurf big Dude!! How are you doing Master shave specialist??
Thanks
@@kensurfs You're welcome Barbus
Just found two containers of Proraso Red at Ross for four bucks a piece. Almost as good as the green.
But how do you travel with blade and razor. When TSA bans DE blades? My blades were confiscated on my trip from Chicago to LA…a bummer….
Oh man.
Blades can be packed into your suitcases, just not put into your carry-on.
Yes sir!!!
👍💈
Great shave 💈 will mike surfs shave again?
I’ll ask him. I hope so
Speaking of movies I'm looking forward to the new Dune movie.
👍👍
Ken, awesome as always!
Thank you
Did anyone else notice the washer in that case? Perhaps to be used with the handle/base plate?
It’s supposed to be used to stop wear
Made in the US….leather, travel case…..I mean….this is beautiful
Ken you should look into barbell training for your back!
