Hi Henry! It was so great meeting you at Maggard's. Currently I've being using the Karve Bison. I'm glad you're settled in your new place and doing videos again. Regards, Lindsay 🪒💈

Great review thank you very much. I had a question about the aftershave. I like the barrister and man sense but I sometimes find it leaves my skin a little tacky. Is that the case with the rubbish? Again, many thanks for your videos. I’m starting to make my way through them now.

Nice introduction to gem razors! I saw pictures of a razor called the Ever Ready Sunray. It is easily one of the most beautiful razors I've seen. Really hard to find though. Don't know if you've tried it but if so, does it shave like any other model that's easier to find? Also, what's your favorite gem style razor if you could pick one modern and one vintage?

I am finding myself on a GEM journey. I was just wondering how this Ever Ready 1912 compares to the GEM Damaskeene and Damaskeene OC in terms of smoothness/comfort and in terms of efficiency. If you could sorta rank these three razors

Have you tried the Rockwll 6s, I like a mild everyday shave like the 6s #3. I'm looking to get a WR1 OC, any gaps you recommend?

Hello. By now, have you ever seen fiber fall off your A1 brushes?

I need to try this soap since I love Bay Rum! Thanks for sharing, glad to have found your channel

Are they .009 ? because certain sites are saying these are for utility blades etc.

Nice collection. Love my GEM’S. Been looking for a Streamline. They are hard to find for sure.

The scent of this one is amazing!

Congratulations on the new place! When I moved a few months ago, I was so messed up because of the sink, mirror, and lighting being so different. I've had to use lower backbone brushes because the new bathroom is narrow around the sink, and I kept hitting the mirror with lather. I prefer synthetics , but natural hair works better in this bathroom. When I first moved in, I only had a couple of razors, soaps, and brushes out, and most of my shaving stuff was in boxes for a few weeks. It was strangely liberating to just alternate my gear and not choose from a lot of options.

Well, well who is this guy?? Lol! Good to see you HD! Have fun at Lake Tahoe. Please keep me informed about the album. Any pre-orders before the release? Thanks for sharing pard!!

Welcome back. Glad you are settling in. Have fun on the trip!

Where could one find the music that you have already released?

Hope you are settling in well, in the new digs. Thanks for the video.

1st loser here with comment #2 🤣 Nice new digs !

Congratulations on reducing your stash of soap! I recently bought Roam Two and Promises, bringing me up to 34 tubs. Still pretty happy with that.

I don't think you lathered it right, terrible lather.

How old is That Vintage PAL injector Adjustable Razor 😊

the hell, i have the same glasses as you and just bought that exact same razor😭

I use a hair brush or a comb to break them in.

Excellent review. It was great talking to you at Maggard’s. Always a fun time meeting vendors and fellow wet shavers like yourself. Take care, Lindsay 💈

Long time no see! Good luck with the move.

Great to see you back. 👏👏

It was great seeing you and getting a chance to chat! Great video.

Great shave HD, always a pleasure.

Nice to see you back! I enjoyed the LASSCO lore, and it was great to chat a the meetup.

Nice shave and good to see you HD 👍

Where can I purchase a new gem

Interesting video on the Gem. I really like the design of them. Thanks HD, Lindsay 💈

Excellent review HD. More people need to support music programs at the middle school level. Well done, Lindsay 💈

Excellent review Henry! Thanks, Lindsay💈

That razor has become my go too after almost 3 years of wet shaving. I bought mine from Razor Emporium and had them polish it so it behaves like the 6c. I also love the Liniment you use. I use Thayer's right before it and put the liniment on while my face and head are still damp. It is amazing. Try it. Cheers -Kevin

I’m not keen on heavy razors either.

I'm a wet shaving newbie, but I've done some intense self-education here on youtube, Reddit, etc. I thought one of the rules of good practice was to avoid re-shaving un-lathered skin. But I see that you re-stroke the same area after the first stroke removes the lather. To see this clearly, look at this video where you start using the razor, from 10:00 to 10:09, with the playback speed at 0.25. Or later, when shaving the neck, 16:09 to 16:11. Or your now-bare cheek, 16:22 - 16:27.

These blades are not the same quality. I can guarantee you that they not. I work at a company that sells medical and laboratory supplies and have had every customer that had received the new ones return them the next day. They all say they do not cut precisely enough. They want the personna gem blades instead. These customers use them for medical manufacturing or scientific laboratories. They have the ability to see the miniscule details of performance between both blades and they all say the new rebranded one is crap. Doesn't cut cleanly and very unreliable to work with.

Very nice! Interesting!

Didn't expect to come across a video of someone using a single edge blade for shaving. I actually make those blades. We've been going thru the rebranding for roughly a year now. New name, same blade.

I've gotten a spread of GEM razors and must say they're all quite comfortable shavers, though the Micromatic definitely needs a lighter touch to use. I think that the thing holding GEM blades back is the way that the blade is mounted and secured in these razors prevents the blade from being used to maximum effect. I'm interested in seeing how the Blackland Sabre performs.

Have you ever heard of anyone being able to find these 3 facet blades locally? I heard that these are primarily made for medical purposes and the properties needed for shaving just happens to align. I was thinking maybe a medical supply store or other place could carry them. Great video!

That brush is a really good brush especially for the money. It’s my second or third favorite synthetic brush and I’ve tried a lot. First is 25mm muhle STF. I like soft brush with easy splay. I picked up the 24 mm pony knot, in another handle, and was disappointed. Zero backbone would be good for creams only IMO. I have not tried the Wald knot yet.

I'm in Canada. I don't know how this works overall but in my own anecdotal experience - the public school my two boys went to had a music program and a computer/technology program for all the kids UNTIL a set of parents with autistic kids forced the school to build a special 'bubble room' for the autistic children (which was a very small number of kids). And the upshot was that both the music program and the computer programming room were disbanded to fund the bubble room. So a large majority of the kids missed out to fund something for a very small group. I can understand the need for the autistic kids parents to have their children supported too, but it was a disappointing outcome, that it apparently had to be a win-lose choice.

Great video. Enjoyed hearing about music education in the US.

As a “Band Grandparent”, I appreciate this so much.

I like the idea of 3 Scots. Nice scent profile. I already have Heather and Fleur de France. Blank Watch, though may have a good profile, is named after a British army section, which murdered Scottish women and children. I won't buy that one. It's as if they made an Asian scent, and they called it Pol Pot.

HD is using a new soap?!? What is the world coming to. All kidding aside, you were the perfect person to receive and share about this soap, thanks for the video!

Nice shave HD! Music education was a very important part of my school age years. It's a shame it's not as important now. Thanks for sharing pard and have a good week!!

Hi. Nice shave. Sounds like a nice scent.

Great review and cause. Commended for offering your time to help.

Great video. I was unaware that 3 Scots was released to help support music education. Great idea. Your comments about the Highland base are spot-on IMO. I find its slickness to be great for straight razor shaving.
