    Great shave Aaron. I've gotten in 2 extremely close shaves with that jagger I bought off your advice. Crazy ecstatic about it. Thank u brother and stay humble.

      Thanks so much for watching brother and your kind words man. Always appreciate you stopping by. So glad to hear the Edwin jagger de-89 is working out for you. That’s a great shaver for sure, I use mine quite often when I’m in the mood for an efficient and comfortable shave. Love seeing your passion for the hobby man. Keep on shaving on brother. Enjoy your weekend!

    Gotta love Cryogen. Mine actually had menthol crystals forming on top of the soap. If you’ve never lathered onto the tub and you let it sit for a whole, it’s quite a sight to see. Great shave Aaron. Take care now!

      Thanks so much for stopping by to watch Ben! Always appreciate you man. Yeah, I’ve had this soap for a while and unfortunately I believe early on I tub lathered inside it. Wish I didn’t do that. I remember seeing those crystals when I first got it and it was crazy cool to see. I think everyone should have Cryogen in their den just due to how ridiculous the soap is. Thanks again for watching man and enjoy your weekend!

    Nice shave Aaron. Looks like you mastered the R41. I don’t have this razor but am thinking of getting it. Take care.

      Hey Lee! Thanks so much for stopping by and watching, man. Always appreciate your time. Thanks, yeah I’m just in love with this razor now. It’s perfect for my hair type. I was scared of it at first, but now that my hand is comfortable with it, it’s nothing to be afraid of. If you like aggressive razors I can’t recommend it enough. Take care my friend and enjoy your week.

      Yo Jake! Thanks so much for watching! This handle is awesome dude. The weight of it really helps with the shave in my opinion. I don’t have to add any manual pressure. The handle does it all and it feels really nice. Have a great week man!

    Great shave Aaron. The R41 fits you like a glove. Your fiance is a keeper if she likes the old library/pipe/leathery smell. Match made in heaven. I still haven't ordered my new soap. I picked up this stuff called Cremo at Target. It's a non brush lather creme. Awful. It's thick and gooey. Clogs the blade. What a disaster. I hate wasting stuff (I'm cheap) so I will use it up. I'm not much of a menthol lover but hats off to you for pushing through. I really enjoyed this shave.

      Thanks so much for your time and support my friend! Always appreciate you man. Very glad to see you're enjoying my content. It encourages me to keep making more of these :).
      Yeah, I'm surprised at how much I've fallen in love with the r41. I think people make a fuss about how scary it is, but I find it to be a very efficient and comfortable shaver. (besides the adams apple cut). I love that she enjoys these chiseled face scents because I would hate to have to smell like flowers for her all the time lol. I've seen that cremo while shopping around. Yup, sounds bad. But that's good you're giving it a chance instead of tossing it right away. I think every products deserves some love, except for williams mug, that stuff is terrible. Have a great week man and thanks again for watching!

    Hi. Nice one. I also like these high blade feel razors. For some reason the angle of attack is somewhat easier to find. I like chiseled face but I haven't tried this one. I do have other mentholated soaps / aftershaves and I agree the post shave feels very good. Your eyes water but the cooling effect feels very good on my skin. Happy hump day

      Hey my friend! Thanks so much for watching! I always appreciate your time and support on my content. Yes, I couldn't agree more. The blade feely type razors are just more accurate in my opinion. Although other times I am in the mood for a more mild razor, if I don't feel like focusing as much. Glad to hear you're also a chiseled face fan. Interesting about the menthol having a better post shave feel. I always notice it very much when using this soap. I guess I can sometimes get past the eye watering though. At least it doesn't last that long. Anyway, you have a great day as well!

    Cryogen is like feeling in refrigerator. So cool menthol shave soap!
    For many days coarse hair shaving, Mühle R41 is great efficient razor.
    Your fiance's liking Ghost Town Barber soap scent is still wonder to me. haha
    Nice shave Eric & have a nice weekend!

      Thanks so much for watching Hoon! Always appreciate your support! Yeah, you're not joking. Cryogen is some serious stuff. I enjoy mixing it with other soaps due to how strong it is on its own. The r41 has become one of my all time favorite razors. I'm shocked at how well it handles lots of growth. Great price point as well. Yeah, I'm shocked as well that her favorite scents in my den come from chiseled face. But lucky for me, I don't need to smell like flowers all the time to make her happy. You have a great week as well!

      Thanks so much for watching Scott! Always appreciate the kind words man. Yeah man, I’m happy to see you’re also an r41 fan. People make it seem so scary, but it’s really a phenomenal shaver. Cryogen is just so ridiculous that I couldn’t not have it in my collection lol. Have a great weekend man!

    I thought I loved menthol until i tried this. Stirling glacial has the perfect balance imo but this is straight dry ice 😂

      Thanks so much for watching man! Haha yeah, that’s spot on. The level of menthol in here is just comical. Everyone should have this in their den just because of how ridiculous it is. I actually need to try a Stirling glacial soap again, so thank you for the recommendation. Have a great week man!

    Beautiful R41 shave Aaron. I love the R41 and it’s my favorite DE razor. I am upset that Dr. Jon’s left the market as well. I don’t believe there are enough wet shaving hobbyists to support all of the artisans out there. So, if you really love a few, you just have to try to concentrate your support to those few artisans. Not easy to do. Best regards, Glenn

      Hi Glenn! Thanks so much for watching, as well as the kind words! Appreciate you. Glad to see you also enjoy the r41. You know, I was scared using it at first, but man it's a great shaver. I am just blown away. It's made it near the top of my list of favorite razors of all time. Seeing Dr. Jon's was tough for sure. Yeah, I have to agree with you there. That's been the talk lately and sadly and I believe it's true. We are clearly a small community, and while I want these new artisans to do well, who knows if there are enough hobbyist in the market. It's definitely an interesting time to be a wetshaver. Good plan to give support to your favorites. Have a great week ahead!
