- Welcome to Episode 6 of Geofatboy’s Everyday Shave! The razor featured is the Edwin Jagger DE89 Safety Razor. We know that many of you need to shave every day for your jobs. Geo comes through with this new series where on 1 or 2 day’s beard growth, he will select a razor, describe it, cover the razor specs, and perform a quick working man’s type shave, and then comment about the Razor and also give the razor an Aggression Rating from 1-10. This enables you to get an idea how each particular razor will perform for you. This will help you when considering a razor to purchase. Keep in mind the DE blade chosen can also increase or decrease the aggression of the shave for that particular razor.

*It can't be put off any longer Geo, we need a showdown video of the BIG THREE! The "HD" vs the "R89" vs the "DE89" all give excellent shaves but we need an undisputed champ! 🥊🏆🥇🥈🥉*
Tom Selleck called, he wants to give you the MAGNUM P.I. Smile and wink.😉👍✌
This is a great razor. It has a permanent place in my rotation. Great shave!
Love my DE89l. It's one of those razors that you can just keep in your rotation and you know you're going to get a great shave, whatever blade you have in there. 💈
Had my first ever DE shave today when my DE89 arrived, using the Feather blade supplied.
I was very pleasantly surprised to have an almost nick free shave that was very close and without the irritation I've suffered in recent years from multi blade razors.
Uncle Geo, DE89 will always be special to me. It was my first DE Razor 👍
The alum block is great tool for the shaving kit.
Man Burt Reynolds would be proud of that mustache!
Agree, he looks good with it!
I use that razor. It's an excellent mild razor. It's an interesting point about the blades. Because the blades will affect the rating. Definitely that razor with the Feather is the ideal combination.
Geo looking total badass with that Top Gun inspired mustache!
Love the EJ DE89! First DE razor I owned. Gorgeous brush!
Great shave, mate. If the handle is slippery to anyone I suggest they use a low grit sandpaper to rough it up a little bit. I do it on my spectacle frame if it slips on my nose. 😁
The only problem with the DE89 razor is that there is a razor on Amazon that sells for $9 that is just as good or better. The Roman Empire Shaving Caesar has the exact same head, a heavier handle, and comes with an assortment of 20 blades (5 Astra Platinum, 5 GiIIette Platinum, 5 GiIIette 7 o'clock Sharp Edge, 5 Voskhod). All for 9$ it's incredible. Probably the best entry level deal around.
Never heard of it but thanks for sharing. You can usually find a cheaper version of just about anything if you look hard enough right?
Back in sync Geo💈🪒 Nice shave with a great razor, I have the same one, smooth shaver and smooth handle. Never any slippage as long as no soap on the hands. Good results with the Feather blade, no issues. Thanks for the video and demo.
Omg Geo, few hours ago I was watching your top 10 razors and I was thinking hmm what about Edwin Jagger. Thank you!
Thanks to your review I purchased the DE89 and I love it! Took me 2 shaves to get my muscle memory to achieve the proper angle. This razor + Feather blade + Proraso green shaving cream (tube) + long knurled handle form the winning combination for me. And the head profile allows me to get under my nose. I like this razor better than the more expensive ones I've tried. 3 passes and no nicks or irritation. Best shave I've had in a very long time.
Now that I have the shaving part conquered, I can look into pre- and aftershave products.
That's great! It's all about what works best for you so that you're enjoying your shaves and it's no longer a tedious task. Have Fun with it!
Hey Geo nice work as always! Keep it up with good work. 💪 Do you have some tips for green/blueish tint beard after the shave? Maybe that can be a new video idea. Have a great shave, have a great day! 😎
This may be my next razor! Great shave
I’m impressed
Morning Geo. Mustache is looking great. Have a great day.
Between EJde89, muhle 89 and merkur 34c the EJ is my winner. Amazing smooth shaver best for every day shaving.
We need Geo to have a showdown! ✨✨✨
Great shave Geo, who ever cut your hair should be your go to barber 💈
The DE89 is such an awesome razor. I have the Chrome version and have no problems with the grip. I actually ordered the black handle version as well.
Nice!
nice work again.
Nice hair cut Geo!
I have the Mühle R89, great value for €36 👍
Really enjoy your vids! Looking to make the first-time transition to safety razor. I'm leaning toward this Jagger...but I might prefer a longer handle. Can you recommend a Jagger version with a '5' level attack, but with a longer handle? Thanks!
Noticed you fanned yourself with your towel. Did you ever see the barbershop scene in the Treasure of Sierra Madre. Check it out. You'll dig it the most. Love your videos.

Feather blades are the best
A great fairly cheap razor. I have the version with the micro knurling on the handle.
The original price on it was $41.95 on Amazon I just ordered it on sale for $26.83 to good of a deal to pass on
Hey Geo! Never seen a video on your personal favorite top 10 shaving soaps. Also Margaritas in the artic shaving soap?
Cool shirt velvet instead of the usual cotton
You look like a cop with that mustache LOL! Greetings from Texas sir!
Thank you sir as it helped me alot. How to use stright razor and double edge razor and provide knowledge about world of wet shaving with planalty of brands who are producing razors like Parker,Merkur,EdwinJagar, etc.I always watch your vedio which help me alot as i am using stringht and double edge razors. Well it provides knowledge about razors and blades of top luxurious quality of shaving around the world. I have learned more about shaving from your channel. Through your channel it make me to step in world of wet shaving. One request that i have sent some curies to you let me know and answere them. (love from Pakistan👍)keep it up! Geo
Hey geo my guy, I recently bought the kaliph shavettes since I’m moving up from safety razors, any advice for me since I use one hand for entire shaves because my skill isn’t the best switching hands with any razor
Might get one. Been using a Wilkinson one which has been fine but has a massive design flaw which I found out last night when shaving last night whilst a bit sleepy. The handle opens at the top butterfly style so you can put the new blade in. If it’s not 100% fully shut you will take your skin off. Been fine for past 4 years with 10s of shaves but this has put me off using it. Why on earth are the butterfly bits so crazy sharp, sharper than the razed blade !!
What caused it to go bad all of a sudden? Did you drop it?
nice mustache geo
I find this razor somewhat slippery also, I've got the lined version though, I believe it's got less texture than the one you are using, from what I've heard.
You are lucky. You don't have skin, it is leather! I'd like to be able to shave that fast without irritation. EJ89 is a great razor, thanks for the video.
Thank you!
love some of your shaving videos, but the black moustache doesnt match you , can you make videos on how to dye the moutchace to those that dont match if it works?
If you had to pick between the Parker 78R and the Edwin Jagger DE89, which one would you choose?
I found my love about five years ago through mail order. Today they sell at WalMart and elsewhere, ten bucks for a handle and two 5-blade cartridges. It's Harry's, a five blade wonder with flex in the cartridges that comes with a great ergonomic weighted handle. Harry's, the last razor I will ever buy. How do I know it's the last? Because I used the same 5-blade cartridge from New Year's 2021 to New Year's 2022, about 200 shaves, yes, a full year of shaving every day or two. Then I cleaned the blade as usual under running water - and put it back into its case, because it still was giving me shaves like the new one I replaced it with! Granted, I have a light beard, but still - 200 sharp shaves from one 5-blade cart? Unthinkable!
hot wheels matchbox cars are the best matchbox cars ever shout out to matchbox twenty they were teasing a new ablum lets see how it is when it comes out
hi geo. i wonder why you do not review 7OCLOCK SUPER PLATINUM blade made in INDIA. i bet you forgot feather blade. very sharp, smooth and long lasting. hope you give review of it. thanks
Can you get a knurled handle for it
The King C Gillette is pretty much based off this design to give mild shaves.
Pretty sure that Gillette who started in 1901 had a pretty good idea of how to make a mild DE razor long before Edwin Jagger began in 1988.

@@trunkerdixon yeah, but Edwin Jagger didn't try to make you feel ashamed for being a man...😜
Hello Geofatboy, I hope my message gets to you well.
I have a Mühle Traditional twist DE razor. I've noticed water would get trapped in the hole where the top cap screw together. My current and only way of drying it properly is completely disassembling it, shaking upside down and twisting paper towels to fit in the hole.
I bought a set of Straw brushes to further scrub it well. Is this ok on the razor??
Hopefully the straw brushes aren't too harsh on the chrome plating.
I buy my 2 blade razors, (10 for $0.99) at The 99 Cents Only Store. I use each one for 3 - 4 shaves. I have a pretty stout beard, and these work just fine. I don't understand why people pay such ridiculous prices for razors. I also just use bar soap to lather my face.
Because it’s something that ends up being way cheaper in the long run after the initial cost of getting what you need. Plus depending what you get as a safety razor - it should last you a lifetime with proper care.
To me I was tired of buying $30 5 packs of shick hydro 5 cartridges. I also had issues with ingrown hairs when it came to cartridge razors(especially cheap ones) So I invested a decent bit ($50ish) for a razor alone, and then $30 for soap and brush.
The blades are dirt cheap to the point I can freely browse and try whatever blade I please at no major cost to me.
While I do agree some people can go overboard and spend exorbitant amounts of money in this.(more power to them, their money anyway). It’s not a bad investment for one’s own grooming necessities, especially once all the initial costs are done with so all that’s left are soap costs and blade costs.
@@BigBeter agree. Shaving the old way is a meditation, relaxing, an act of mindfulness almost. It also works out cheap when people realise you are a traditional shaver as they gift you an abundance of quality products, you just need to buy the blades!
I can pick up my favourite Astra for under 10p each.They last several shaves in my Edwin Jagger razor.
@@johnscarr70 yup! Usually I get either money, or gift cards for stores I get my stuff from which is really neat for someone who doesn’t know what scents I’d prefer. For now I’ve settled on Rapira Platinum Lux blades.. 35 blades for 5 dollars is an absolute steal for how smooth they feel aswell.
@@BigBeter I get my razors for $0.10 EACH, they last for several shaves, they work great, and you don't need more than 2 blades in a razor to get a good shave - YOU CANNOT BEAT THAT !!
@@cdmorrissy3692 My face, wallet, and overall enjoyment for grooming myself say otherwise. But to each their own honestly. As long as noone is paying ridiculous prices of $3 per horrid multi blade cartridge it’s a win.
*geo* Which after-balm would you recommend to me? I'm not a fan of methol. My previous goto was the Gentlemens Refinery after shave balm, but I believe they went out of business a few years ago. I want something that I can put on my face immediately after shaving that'll make my face soft and smell nice on me for dinner dates. Thank you in advance.
L'Occitaine. pure class, a superb quality balm.
@@johnscarr70 which one? After shave balm / soothing cade / Eau des Baux
@@rcald-gz5jd just the basic balm (baume apres rasage) brown / blue box, silver tube.
@@johnscarr70 Done. Thank you!
Great video! Which is more aggressive - DE89 or Merkur 34C? I have the Merkur 34C but I find it too mild. It's much better (after watching your video) when I use it with two shim blades.
The DE89 is more aggressive. The 34C is known to be more mild. The DE89 is more aggressive but shaves really smoothly and isn't so aggressive that you can cut yourself easily.
The Muhle r89 is the better of the ‘89 version
Yep but also much more expensive as well. The EJ DE89 is the same design (Muhle and EJ co designed it together) so why more for the same thing? The handles is the most difference.
Yep, I was just going to say the same thing, I find the Muhle R89 gives a smoother shave, I get more audio feedback with the Edwin Jagger, the top cap is ever so slightly deeper on the inside of the EJ, both give excellent shaves though!
@@kwl189 actually, the Muhle is cheaper on Amazon than the Edwin Jagger
@@cavolpert it’s not. I just checked. The EJ89 series still undercut this.
@@kwl189 In Europe they are pretty much the same price, around €36
I apologize that this question/comment has nothing to do with this razor but I have been on the fence about switching from de shaving to straight razor shaving for quite some time and I’m ready to take the plunge. All there is now is finding the right straight razor. I would like the razor that I choose to be my first and only straight razor and the ti sparticus has been calling my name. How would that work as a first straight razor? I have always valued your opinion and have followed your channel from the start. I also have chosen your store as my go to for my shaving supplies. Thank you and I hope all is well.
i have never known anyone that takes up straight razor shaving settle on only one blade - most of us end with with at least a little collection.
TI make good razors, but i'd worry a little about trying to learn with that Spartacus, just because the point needs your full attention all the time else you'll get a nice racing stripe. If you are set on it, and it's a great looking blade for sure, you may consider muting the point, so that it's duller and won't cut you so easily as you learn. You can do this by just rubbing the point on some glass or a stone. Then when you or someone else eventually hones the blade you can repeat the muting, or if you feel you are proficient by then with it, run it flat out.
