Have A Great Shave, Have A Great Day!
Geo
As a kid, I never thought I would find some kind of enjoyment out of watching a guy shaving at 5:00 in the morning lol. But seriously, thanks for all the great videos Geo cause they have helped me embark on an awesome journey when it comes to shaving. Makes me feel more like a man each time I shave with my safety razor.
That's what it's all about! Good clean fun, and a nice, close shave! Thanks for your positive comments.
The EJ DE89 was also my first safety razor.
I still use it 8 years later. Cheers!
Battle tested!
8 years of using it almost every day? i'm just starting out and my main goal is to save money
Right from the home of British Steel. That's the sum of my current routine: Edwin Jagger razor, Taylor's cream and Feather / Astra blades. My first razor, not quite as ornate but still a handsome devil!
I've been watching your videos for 4 years and I've finally figured out who you remind me of. Has anyone ever told you how much you look and sound like the actor Danny Aiello? It's truly remarkable. Love your videos Geo!
good call
Yeah I'm still upset about that! He beat me out for the role of Johnny Cammareri in Moonstruck! No biggie since Cher chose Ronnie at the end...😂 "He's a big baby!"
@@geofatboy Lol!
I’d say that he looks like Roberto Baggio.
I went on vacation at a tropical resort. I shaved , then after breakfast went into the ocean. It burned my living daylights (salty seawater).
Love my de89 razor. Lucky enough to live quite close to their hq
In the immortal words of Tina Fey: "I Want To Go To There"
This was my first safety razor over 5 years ago. Still in great condition.
As long as you don't drop it, it will last a long time.
@@geofatboy yes, don’t drop it
Fantastic razor and it's still going 7 years strong. You sold me on it in your video saying WOW over and over along with "a hot knife through butter". Fantastic letter by JD and we all appreciate the influence you have on us in wet shaving.
Hi Derek-Thank you for your support!
Got my first safety razor, the DE89, in October of 2020. Came with Derby blades which I didn't like so I've been using a 10 blade sampler. This straight razor is great, will always recommend. Simple, elegant, inexpensive. God bless Edwin Jagger.
What a great letter, couldn't agree with JD more. this channel is where I learned the most on how to double edge shave. Great video GEO!
Thanks Jeff!
Excelent videos!! Congratulations!! You are the best!! Greetings from Greece!!
Yiasou Konstantinos! 🇬🇷
The Edwin Jagger DE89 is indeed a beautiful razor
So true! "My Precious"...
Love my EJ DE89! I started with a cheap Van Derhagen butterfly type from Walmart. Didn't like it. Went with a vintage Gillette SuperSpeed butterfly type I picked up off that auction site.. It was okay. Then, I bought the EJ DE89 from Geo. I paired it with Astra Superior Plantinum blades and a tub of TOBS Sandalwood cream, also bought from Geo. I've been using this combination for years now. No problems and no discomfort. A very smooth shave! You can't lose with EJ! By the way, I did try several different blades before settling on the Astra. As far as aftershave, right now, my fav is Captain's Choice Nor'Easter balm, again, from Geo.
Sounds like a great combo Allen., Thanks for sharing!
Just ordered a long DE89 🪒😀
Nice! Mine should arrive today. Can’t wait to use it.
In my opinion, you are the best "razor Man" in the world. Thanks for tips how to improve shaving.
Thanks for that Robert. Greatly appreciated!
Great to get positive feedback from a customer! good shave👏
The best!
my dad is from Sheffield, England where the company is from, i’m planning on getting him this for Christmas :)
A classic razor and still one of the best.
Thanks Ken!
Great video Geo! I own this Edwin jagger smooth chrome razor. It was one of the first razors I bought years ago. It's amazing how the handle doesn't get slippery when wet. I will have to use it again as I have moved on to all stainless razors like the 3one6, Rex Envoy, Outlaw and Rockwell 6s.
Keep up the great shaves and stay safe Sir!
Dave.
Thanks Dave! Agreed- It's one of those razors you keep coming back to.
Ευχαριστούμε για το ωραίο ξύρισμα!! Καλή χρονιά!
I wanted to thank you again for this shave! It’s been a year since I sent you that email. I’ve shared this video with several friends and new wet shavers.
Nice! Juts noticed it was a little dark back there. :)
I really appreciate your work. Much love. Keep inspiring us like this 🙂
Thanks Dinalo!
@@geofatboy The Pleasure was all mine Mr. George.
That letter was almost the length of a book.
😂😂😱
Great idea. A book chronicling 30 years of shaving struggles. I’ve already written the preface.😂😂
@@JD_Str8RZR 😂😂😂😂
geo I want to thank you. I have anxiety disorder and these really help
Absolutely one of my favourite razors! Nice video bro :) (and greetings from Italy!)
Thanks Marco!
It gave me warm feeling.
Like me and spaghetti?
@@geofatboy As I'm in Poland, more like pierogi.
I think it's awesome that you take the time to do such an informative tutorial. There are a lot of people out there who really don't have somebody to show them this type of thing. I bet you've helped a lot of young men just starting out on their journey. Well done, Brother.
I cannot ever remember Geo getting a nick or a weeper.
Even with Feather blades.
We need to see a video of bloopers and blood....
It still happens occasionally Michael! When removing heavy beard growth... Going over and ingrown or two.
@@geofatboy only ever happens to me with a Feather blade.
Actually stopped using them in my (now little used) 34C. Too dangerous.
Great in my Progress @ 2 or 3.
EJ DE89 rulez ! This is best for me
Gleaming Chrome Baby!
Finally started the de about a month ago... never going back!
Once you try the d, you'll never want to go back. 😎
Geo you can talk and run the New York City marathon and I would watch it until the end! Edwin Jagger products are great, I love the low profile scent of their products and the DE89 is a great shaver!
Hmmmm, Now you're giving me ideas! Might take me a week😂😱
@@geofatboy Oh no, headline reads “Geo runs NYC Marathon while talking and Shaving”😁
I have a Mühle R89, which I believe is the same razor due to a collaboration. Great razor, really well made.
Thanks for the brilliant videos Geo! Used to use cartridge razors because that’s all I really knew of. I suffer from sensitive skin and ingrown hairs and your videos have helped my shaving techniques with a DE razor immensely. Love the proraso products as well. Thanks again!
Way to go Zach! Thanks for sharing.
You were also the one that turned me on to wet shaving after watching one of your videos. Thank you!
Geo! I just got my first shave kit (Amazon I’m broke lol) and I got nice starter kit man let me tell you I see why using a brush and bowl and shave soap is so satisfying to use!!, I love safety razors but let me tell you the new one I got is amazing, but I followed all your techniques and got the nicest shave in forever !!
👍👍🎉
I have been using the Edwin Jagger DE89 3D black razor for over 2 years now. The quality is excellent and have found Edwin Jagger customer service fantastic when I had an issue with my razor. It has excellent knurling and looks modern. I highly recommend the brand.
My wife dropped and broke my Merkur 34C, I just received my first DE89 can’t wait for my first shave with Edwin Jagger!!
From how high? I've dropped my 34C many times with no resulting damage. It's bulletproof!
@@geofatboy 5 feet maybe? Had in on stand side of the medic cabinet, somehow she knocked the stand and the screw part broke from the top cover and stayed inside the handle, I managed to get the screw out, maybe with super glue I could fix it, but since my birthday was coming up She offered to gift me a new one so I asked for the Edwin jagger which I wanted to try out.
You sold me on this razor, I was between a Merkur 34c or this, but I decided to give Edwin Jagger a try and it has not disappointed! Smooth shave paired with a feather razor!
Excellent!
I shaved with Gillette cartridge blades for about twenty years but due to cost and plastic waste, I decided about ten years ago to switch to DE safety razors. It took my face/skin a few weeks to adjust but boy, the shaves I have got have been so much more enjoyable, I will never go back.
Heck yeah Geo! I've been wet shaving since 2015 and learned from your videos.
Thanks Brandon! You rock!
Well this is my first DE razor I got it 6 months ago and don’t regret it one bit, I feel the shave it provides is fantastic for my skin with Derby extra blades. The money it saves compared to my old cartridge razor and quality of shave is a no brainier for which one is better. I started off with an arko shave stick and had no problems whatsoever but decided to treat myself to the Taylor of old Bond Street sandalwood shave cream. It’s turned a chore into a very pleasant experience that I often look forward to.
DE89 and TOBS Sandalwood= A winning combination! Enjoy.
This was also my first de razor and you did have a part in that decision! You mentioned in that video years ago about the fine finish and you were correct. It shines like a mirror and the quality even seems better than my Mercury 34c. Great razor for anyone
Thanks for sharing. It's a handsome razor, and shaves great!
Great video! Thank you, that’s exactly what I was looking for.
Thanks for the request Joe!
Geo💈💈great shave. I've had that smooth chrome DE89 for more years than I care to mention, still one of my most cherished shavers. Looks like new and works like new, no problem with the chrome plating yet. Never tried Edwin Jagger soaps/creams, seemed to work good when you "tried" to make a lather😁 Thanks for the video, well done as always. Enjoy!
Thank Terry-Not sure why, there's not a lot out there on EJ soaps and creams... The Viewer was right!
I never started out with this razor... I went to the Merkur 34G and never looked back.. Then upgraded to the Merkur Slant 37C via a Geo YT Video...and BOOM! What a smooth great Razor.. smooth with a Little more aggressiveness in the slant for the perfect shave..
Btw Merkur 34G is just the Gold version of the 34C-hrome..
I assume it would be a step backwards for me to try this Edwin Jagger 89, but it is undoubtedly a classic!
I bet the Merkur 34C and Edwin Jagger DE89 together are responsible for a hundred thousand people begining their wet shaving Journey with these specific pieces in their hand!
Cheers
Yo Jack Man! It is likely too similar shaving to your 34C or 34G unless you really like shiny things ("My Precious") LOL! You are correct-between those 2 razors many new wet shavers cut their teeth, and their beards successfully!
Hi Geo- Great shave; thank you! The EJ products are always nice performers. Take good care and be safe and be well. Best regards, as always, Geo!
Nice and thanks geo
Thanks Adel!
Love your video Geo! Thanks so much! My favorite razor. It is critical and I learned through experience, the shave creams are very hard on the threads which screw to the handle. The critical is making sure a person cleans those threads really good so there is no corrosion. My first head last maybe 6 years. Contacted Edwin Jagger, they are awesome, they replaced my head, and gave me some tips on cleaning and polishing.
Thanks Ranger-Hope all is well! They do have crazy good customer service which is amazing and I believe why they are so successful.
Hello Geo ! Greetings from Greece! You have helped me a lot with your videos so far , and you answered a lot of questions, that I have might have had and I thank you for that , I am very grateful ! But one just came up ! Isn't the handle a bit slippery? Because I see it without any knurlings or grooves. I know from you , that you are not supposed to handle razors with wet hands , but still, does all this polished chrome give you a good grip ? Oh and a thing I forgot! Good job on keeping a 10 year old razor like new ! Keep it up ! 👍
Thank you! Check out Dave Sheppard above⬆️The handle is not slippery with wet fingers, only shaving cream laden fingers-And-Take care of your tools and they will take care of you.
Haven’t heard you say “the Zen moment of the shave right here” in a long time geo 😂 lol.
Ohmmmmmmmm..........
Check my new video... You'll be satisfied.
Edwin Jagger aloe Vera shave soap is awesome on the face
Man, I bought a DE89 from you 10 years ago based on the video. I believe it was that long ago anyway. I wound up putting an OSS handle on it. Still have it but a couple years ago, I retired it and purchased a new one lol. Very cool video
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for doing such a great shave and honest review....
I bought a twist-to-open Double Edge Safety Razor from Shave Nation and I love it. It has nostalgia, it is very good quality, not expensive and is very easy to change blades. I have a 3 piece safety razor and I hate it. The twist-to-open is a pleasant experience. Who wants to disassemble a razor, drop parts on the floor etc. Ruins the experience.
True Enoch-Butterfly style razors are easiest for blade loading and removal.
Greetings from Ireland 🇮🇪 Top razor use it often.
All the best from USA to the Emerald Isle. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Just bought some Edwin jagger aloe lotion and aloe shave cream from shave nation. Works amazing.
Great letter btw. Thanks for sharing.
My first DE shave was with an EJ razor. Now have a Merkur 37c Slant with Gilette 7 o'clock blades.
The thread for the head for mines broke off and got stuck in the handle. And it was a replacement head too, the first time i had it the threads got worn and the chrome came off. Now using merkur 34c hd. MUCH better and sturdier!
I can relate, when I was around 17 we had a Gillette and Shick DE, but they were on their way out and had plastic handles. After realizing carts where hitting my pocket books, I had to find a cheaper alternative.
So what's your go-to now?
Rockwell 6S with a Feather blade, I need to replace my DE89 and would love get a 3 One 6 in red, i also like to rotate im my Parker 98R, which I bought a few months back from Shave Nation. keep up the good work and stay safe.
Exactly what I did in the first half of the letter too 😄😄
I think many Gents followed that very same path.
Edwin Jagger was also my first.
My first shaving brush was Edwin Jagger. So I had to get my first Safety Razon from Edwin Jagger also.
Now I am using Alpha Outlaw Safety Razor, but I still keep my Edwin Jagger around. I tried to sell it, but that is difficult.
When I went in the Coast Guard 1967 a Fat boy cost $5.00 Been using one since!
Semper Paratus!
Geo you rock!!!
Thanks Chris!
Great shave as always! I love Edwin Jagger razors, I have the DE89 and DE86 along with a sandalwood soap and cream. I do a thing called Edwin Jagger Wednesday where every Wednesday I use all Edwin Jagger products for my shave.
Love it! What are the other days of the week called?
@@geofatboy I normally shave mondays, wednesdays, fridays and saturdays. mondays and fridays are random, saturdays are Straight Razor Saturdays.
@@geofatboy They are called gotta reach work on time Bic or Schick disposabled days.😆😆😆😆🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Super!
Thanks!
this is funny lol... i just turned 39 got dam years old and AM FINALLY BEING TAUGHT HOW TO SHAVE!! :)
i need start doing 2 passes now. dam you lol.. im curious how much better that will be and also how many people will notice it
well to be fair, i always had to be in the bathroom when dad was shaving and did get alot of visual tutoring lol..
sometimes dads towel would fall off and once i was like "hey dad. what is that?" ..."don't worry about that boy" ..lmao
beat shaving market in the world 👌🏾🌹
Hi,
Which one of EJ- DE razor aggressive?
Dear Geo please mention how aggressive is the razor in your videos as a main point.
Keep on
EJ was my 1st razor.. Hated it then & ever since (the angle, level of aggressiveness & balance not 4 me).. maybe that is just me..
Anyway keep up the good work👍
Really? First time I ever heard this. What do you shave with?
@@geofatboy a minority of a few (Johnshaves101 from the UK is another example)..
Here is the thing.. I'm a 2 pass shaver.. I guess EJ would make more sense with 3 passes & with (& only with) a blade like a feather..
That said, my favorite DEs include RR SLOC , ikon the tech replica (daily use).. Nevertheless I rather enjoy the slants (RR 37 German slant & the PAA Bakelite slant)..
Anyway always great 2 watch your vids & hear from u..
Tnxxx 👍
astra is my favorite blade. i had this razor as well but i found the handle would get slippery as my hands got wet so I had to buy a knurled aftermarket handle that didn't fit that well but it worked for about 10 years before the threads on the head of the shaver gave out and I had to get a new razor. also the chrome peeled off a bit and scratched up my face but I just hit that with some 1000 grit sandpaper and got rid of the chrome burrs that were scratching me. all in all it's a great razor but they should put some knurling on the handle.
The layer of protection was certainly visible. ;)
Good one! I didn't say invisible did I? 😂
@@geofatboy lol. Nope. Great Vid. 👍
I have this razor and it is a MaMa Bear (just right) razor. If someone were to buy this and get nothing else, they would have great shaves for life.
Yes, it is one of THOSE razors!
Thanks for good videos
Thanks Dena!
@@geofatboy someday i will go to my heaven (USA) and meet you. You are like Anthony Sopranos the great and its very amazing. My english is not good sorry about that.

@@Menddess I have very close relatives who are from Persia as well...
It's very rare I shave because I trim to keep a stubble but I recently bought a KCG safety rasor for my dad and now I feel like shaving and I ended my subscription for dollar shave club since the safety rasor is better than the 5 blade rasor that most people use
hello i ordered this safety razor im a beginner .i first ordered parker 66r wich one is better for beginner
Hey, Geo. How often should you should you change the razor blade in a safety razor? Once every few shaves or after every single shave?
You should be able to get 4-5 shaves from a blade. YMMV!
Voskhod are the best blades. I use them whit R41 from Mühle
Sweet Combo!
Is the Edwin Jagger razor more aggressive than the Merkur 34c? Nice shave.
Trouble with the balm 🤣🤣🤣
Another awesome video Geo!!! How many days of growth was that??
I think that was 4 or 5.. All I'll say-it was itchy! Couldn't wait to remove it.
I’m ready to move away from cartridge razors and this video has only confirmed my decision. One question, though. I’ve seen many videos mention that the Feather razors are very sharp and often suggested to make a razor shave more aggressively. I plan to purchase a DE89 variant from Shave Nation, but a little hesitant to start with the Feather blade as a newbie. What are your thoughts on what to start with?
Well, I typed the above comment before watching the whole video and it looks like you answered my question.
Thanks Erik, glad you found the answer!
I went for a Gillette King C double edge, inexpensive to give it a go after spending 20years putting up with cartridge razors and razor burn/ingrown hairs.
Nothing but a baby smooth face/neck with no irritation now.
More options when you're ready: shavenation.com/collections/safety-razors
Love my DE86 but wish it was more aggressive. Maybe I'll try a shim, I just need a bit more. Setting 3 on my Merkur Progress works good for me, much more aggressive.
Did you try it with a Feather?
@@geofatboy Yes. My beard is thick and even growing on chin and stache. But grows uneven on the rest of the face. So I have to give it 2-3 days growth for a comfortable shave. So by then, it's a bit too long for the mildness of the EJ. I do really well with the adjustable, it's the best for me I believe. I'll still have use for the EJ, but only at the right time, works good if I do every other day, but I love shaving best at 3 days. I wish I could do everyday, loving it now that it's a hobby.
@@geofatboy Update: Still too mild, lol. BUT with a shim, it's PERFECT.
I give a lot of shave burn around my mouth. Are use feather blades. Can you recommend some thing thank you. Great video.
Nice Video, by the way, where can I get Razor Tins for frequent travel persons
Geo, out of all the shave creams you sell, what's your favorite cream?
I love the Shave Nation bowls. I want to buy, but shipping is very expensive to Brazil. 😔😢
We are always looking for cheaper shipping methods. Brazil has crazy customs fees as well. Sorry...
@@geofatboy It's true, my friend. We suffer from absurdly high tax and interest rates. Often shipments of products from abroad do not pay due to the high value of delivery.
Does not create a sliding film for me. Do I need to pick up more or less soap with the brush?
Sounds like more.
do you have EJ logo on all base plates? i saw some without them. are they fake? you mentioned they changed recently. are the one with logo old and new razors don not have them? also, some have sheffield england and some do not. whats with that?
I don't think the older EJ razors have the shields on the base plate. You can see, the new one's do.
I've been wet shaving about 7 months now. And I really enjoy your reviews and instruction on the subject. I've only got 2 razors right now. A Vander Hagen which I purchased at a drug store. And then I ordered a parker 96r. I been looking at your site for an upgrade. Was wondering if u could give a few razors. Interested in an adjustable of some kind. Thanks 👍
Probably a bit too late but I'd have recommended getting a RR GameChanger with both heads/plates (.68 and .84).
You inspired me to start de .I bought wilkinson sword classic it was really enjoyable.Im looking now for a new razor.Can you recommend one?
Sure-Here are some good choices:
•DE89: bit.ly/DE89RazorSN
•R89: bit.ly/R89RazorSN
•34C- bit.ly/HD34CRazorSN
•Rockwell 6C: bit.ly/Rockwell6CSafetyRazorSN
No pressure at all, with an astra blade or anything similar, clears off your face so easily with some arko. I have a muhle r41 but damn, it just doesn't feel good. This and the merkur r34c work best, but I think I prefer the edwin jagger de89. Got more aggressiveness and I just shave against the grain to get a single one pass
Sounds good!
Γειά σου λεβέντη!
Ha Ha! Pfaristo! ❤️
@@geofatboy Perhaps you could do a Greek shave with Greek shaving gear such as Kolynos.
Yo Brother Geo ! Admire how you always keep in rotation a good no nonsense Big Boar Brush with backbone- It's Your silver handle Proraso Boar by Omega..
If you get around to it, see if you sell the [Omega Professional Boar number 10098] Its a big handled boar that would substitute well the next time you want to use the silver handle Proraso on air.. Can you dig it??
Made it! First comment^^
Keep up the shaves Geo!
Oh you know I will!
Geo, is there a reason you don't hang your brushes by the handle instead of the bristles? a matter of preference or it's meant to be hanged that way ? I always hanged mine at the very top of the handle... I think it looks better and balanced side by side with my safety razor.
Hi Ian-Most of my brush handles don't fit in the stand, but they do where the knot meets the handle. Hanging somewhere on the handle eventually scratches the handle so be careful with that.
@@geofatboy oh I see... thanks for the tip !
Would you recommend using olive oil as a preshave?
Only in a pinch-It would not be my first choice!
Is it better to get the rubber handles compared to the chrome ones.
Hi Geo! I love your channel. I'd like to get rid of cartridge razors altogether, could you recommend a DE for shaving my scrotum, my girlfriend has very particular demands. I'd rule out a straight razor as I have to shave the perineum blind.
Thanks
Thanks Michael! I'm not recommending anything for the downtown area (liability issues) but safety razors are good for shaving (just about) everything...

@@TheWaxChainFanClub Also quid pro quo comes into play here... You know-Do Unto Others...
Hi! Great video as always. I have a question, between this one and the Parker 94R which one is more efficient? I need it for head shaving every second day, so it must be aggressive but not dangerous for the skin. Thanks in advance!
