Geo - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Hi Geo, greetings from France. I discovered wet shaving with this razor and this shaving cream two years ago. The Palmolive cream is the most common cream in France. It is sold in every supermarkets.
What about the D'amaris by Sole?
Hey Geo, when are you going to do the expensive vs budget shave? The best low cost razors, blades, soaps etc... vs the top of the range shaving equipment, a Balboa vs Creed if you will... a David vs Goliath...a showdown to end all showdowns!✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
Some more Wilkinson Sword facts (or myths). They were also made here in Wales where I live. It is said their sabre blades where so well tempered they could be curled inside a bowler hat. Second fact, we have my wife’s Great Uncle’s dress Wilkinson Sabre. Stay safe and keep your great videos coming.
Wow I have this one. Shaving has been my new hobby for hmm let's say 3 months and I bought this for start and must say it's amazing. I can really recommend it :)
Welcome to the club!
@@EasyTarget82 Thanks :)
Hmm? I’m new
Out of curiosity, what blades do u use. I find the Wilkinson ones that came with it to dull. Once I finish them I’ll probably buy astra ones, but I’m curious about ur opinion?
@@matteovillella1482 I use Class C Gillette, but that’s mainly because they are one of few blades in stores where I live
After trying several soaps and creams I definitely prefer cream due to it's lubricity. After using most common brands available in supermarkets and drugstores here in Germany I ended up with Palmolive Sensitive as the one I always use. Much different to the non sensitive version which anyway has some ingredients that make my skin itchy during the shaving although lubricity is extremely good which I always appreciate. Also here in Germany we have a brand called Florena which makes excellent Nivea Balsam clones and also great shaving creams for adjusted budgets, available in many supermarkets.
That Wilkinson gives me feelings of my Weixi safety razor which is the worst I've ever had in my life and almost ended my introduction in this lovely world. I still wonder If I received a defective unit...
Fantastic video. ❤️ from Bombay ,India. I have my maternal grandfathers Wilkinson butterfly DE razor. Its over 60 years old and the handle is actually made of pure ivory! Shaving with it is always amazing. Not once have I ever nicked or cut myself even if im careless or shaving in a hurry!
Old is gold!
Excellent step-by-step instructions. I really appreciate that your videos have the beginner in mind instead of taking the viewers for granted after a while.
I recently bought the same exact shaving cream as I just started shaving with a safety razor, love the smell and it’s easy to get a good lather. Also, thank you for the quality content geo!
Here in Germany you can get the Palmolive for 1€, but it (often) is the only shaving cream/soap (-stick) you can get... So actually this is my go to, and I love it (great shave, great smell, nothing too strong)!
I've been using this razor for 2 months and I'm very pleased with it.
Are you still using the Wilkinson sword classic double edge safety razor
@@christopherwalker4606 Yes, occasionally.
9:24 I liked the change of the blades, totally spontaneous! And it did made a difference!
I called an audible at the line of scrimmage. Kill Kill! Omaha Omaha!
Wilkinson blade almost destroyed his face 🫣
Both Palmolive creams are top notch. And you can get them everywhere in Europe for just a Euro.
I think it is owned by colgate and is made in Italy.
Thanks Geo great review, Legend!
Thanks Chris!
Yay celebrating both a new video from Shave Nation and my new Feather Blades arrived today. (:
It's a great Day!
The Loop 97.9 reminds of the old WLS 890 AM "The Rock of Chicago" which I used to listen to for countless hours. It was the station that I first heard Cheap Trick's "Dream Police" on. I know exactly how you feel. ;-)
I have been using this razor for the past 6 months. It is my first double edge razor. I think it is a little bit hard to begin traditional wet shaving but it is a good razor. I think it is a mild razor, milder than de89-r89, butterfly razors are easy to blade in. I can easily suggest to everyone who is beginner for wet shaving. Also thanks a lot for the review Geofatboy!
Thanks Osman-Greatly appreciated.
Hi Geo- Great shave; thank you! Good call to switch to the Feather blade. I hope your week is going well. Take good care and be safe and be well. Best regards, as always, Geo!
Wilkinson is garbage!! for me Astra is No. 1!
I use this blade to shave my head and its perfect
The weight and length just works for shaving my head
Can this razor last a lifetime?
Mild razor is an understatement. Aggression is non existent. Terrible razor. Great video though.
Hello! What aggressiveness/type of the razor is best suited for shaving once every 4-5 days? Medium thick stubble, sensitive skin.
bit.ly/MuhleR41RazorSN Your welcome.
Thank you for this video. Wilkinson was my first safety razor. I was annoyed how long it took to get a good shave with it. It's good to see that part of the resposibility for that is on the side of the blades.
Glad you got it worked out!
Terrible razer, if it’s not 100% shut it’ll rip your skin off, been fine for 3 years but ridiculous design so I’m getting something that doesn’t use a bitterly method for the blade holder
Wait-You used it for 3 years and it's terrible?
Morning Geo! Great to start the day with a new video. I always appreciate that you ask yourself if you can mix up a lather ;) ..."let's see if we can mix up a lather"
The Wilkinson Classic Razor is superb. I bought one a few weeks ago, and for it's price it gives me a terrific shave. No nicks or burn , its very forgiving. I have been using the blades included with it, so all good. It has gone in with my favourite razor roster. I used Porasso Red with it. Great shave and just buy one!
its got unequal blade exposure, its rubbish
@@hassyg4083 I spot it too
Great! Greetings from Stockholm, Sweden. Have a nice weekend
I just bought one. Wilkinson is made in Solingen, Germany now. It’s like an old Gillette TTO close comb head. I bought the soap too and will buy a brush and make a video. Palmolive soap stick is amazing! Scent reminds me of my father.
Found identical razors in a supermarket except they were branded schick. Same razor, same designed/coloured box and 10 blades. Go figure.
Interesting... I think you may have stumbled upon a conspiracy...
Hi. Great demo shave. This was my first DE razor and i love it. That said the WS blades that came with it were terrible and I experienced the same poor result as you. As soon as I changed the blade it made a massive difference.
Makes me think I should keep them for my girlfriend which could probably benefit from using them rather than a cheap cartridge razor which irritates her skin a lot.
Thanks for this comment. I’ve used DE razors for years and they’re way better for me than cartridge. But I just got this razor and had a horrible shave. I was wondering if it was the razor or blades so will try will the usual blades instead of Wilkinson
@@TheRoarWithin the blades that came with the razor are terrible. Because this DE razor is so mild best use a sharp blade like a Feather. I use Astra greens and they work fine.
Is there any razor in the world that has a negative review from Geo? All are "nice and smooth". 😆
I guess its skill
They allso make electric guitar hardware such as bridges and tuning pegs.
Nice!
Having just watched your shim video, it would have been interesting to see if a shim improved the aggressiveness of that Wilkinson blade instead of changing for a Feather. Just thinking out loud.
Just got this razor after using Edwin Jagger for a year. Get on fine with the Edwin Jagger but this felt horrible on my skin and I couldn’t avoid some cuts. Not sure if it’s the blade or razor itself.
Hi Geo. Great Video: This is pretty much my daily set up. I bought the Wilkinson Sword Classic model which is a little bigger....a little heavier at 120gr. Love this mild razor for a quick shave when I am in a hurry and only do one pass just tool look presentalble, 2-3 more for that BBS face.
Have used Palmolive for years both soap and cream, I like to Face Lather as it gives the beard a good workout. Talk on the net that Palmolive has discontinued makeing shaving soap and cream😢 HAVE YOU HEARD ANYTHING??
I´v yet too try out the Wilkinson Blades that came with the razor as I am still useing up my Persona Blades and have been going over too the new DERBY BLUE Blades that I find work very well in all my razors...The Wikinson - Parker 96R - Bluebeard Cutthroat and my Bluebeard Shavett Razor. Which razor i use depends on how much beard I need to shave...Wilkinson for everyday, Parker or Blueberad for 3-4 days, the Shavett for 1-2 weeks, any longer and I just start up the Lawn Mower and shove my chin in there.
I can strongly recommend the Wilkinson for Bigginers, Quick Shavers, and Old Timers who need a mild shave.
As for Razor Blades....Beginners, buy a sample kit on line and find the right blade for you.
Happy Shaving
Hi Mark,
Thanks for sharing. I have seen that it's impossible to find Palmolive shaving cream anywhere. Anybody know for sure if it's been discontinued?
I bought one of these as my first DE razor after 30+ years of using cartridge razors. In the UK it's called The Edger, and it's cheap as chips; the build quality far exceeded my expectations, especially when you consider the price. I agree that the W-S blades that come with it aren't particularly good, however, with KAI blades, this razor absolutely shines! It'll deal with 7 days of coarse growth painlessly, effortlessly, and leave you with a face smoother than a baby's bum!
The Wilkinson blade (which I find compares favorably to the Persona in the red box of 100 blades) would work better on a one or two day growth, whereas the Feather blade (which seems to compare favorably with the Persona in the blue box of 100) works better on a multi-day growth that you used when you started this demonstration--------I have this razor and have used several blades; furthermore, I, too, have the Palmolive tube cream and the Simpson's Chubby 2 Silver tip Super Badger brush-------I suppose you can say that I'm finicky, but I look forward to shaving.
wow thank you for this instructional video. This video is a perfect demonstration that the razor blade completely makes the shave. Cheap razors are not necessarily bad
Thanks for watching and commenting!
"Activate beast mode" 🤣🤣🤣
This razor hates me!! 😂😂. The two times I've used it, it sliced me up! 😖😖. I don't know why, I have been DE shaving for 35 years and have a good few razors. This was about a year ago so I'm going to try it again soon. It was interesting to see just how much better the Feather blade was. I have never changed blades mid shave. I always thought the Wilkinson blades were pretty sharp!..... Stay safe Geo,
Dave.
Hi Dave, I'd give it the old college try with a few different blades. If it doesn't get better than it's not for you and move on.
@@geofatboy Yes, I have plenty of other Razors that I love. Did you receive my emails with photos of the Theatre I work at Geo?
Stay safe mate,
Dave.
Dude definitely high brand double edge razor slightly expensive I brought ming Shi razor $10 in lazada the weight and grip is excellent and shaves like a baby I brought 2x $20, high end models cost about 50-100 depends on your budget
Do a review on the Palmolive sensitive shaving cream. There's almost no reviews on that shaving cream.
It's pretty nice, smells nice and lathers up pretty well.
I would recommend the tube over the stick soap tho.
I really enjoyed the enthusiasm in this video, cheerful man :-)
Thank you!
Great shave Geo! The feather did the trick:)
Another great video Geo, your video's have taught me a lot about shaving. Just out of curiosity, how does this Wilkinson classic compare to the old black plastic one?
Hello,
I have a very bad experience with this razor. I have a thin beard. It has made almost all the blades irritating and shaves badly.
I was using it as a test shaver at first. I was convinced that I didn't like the derby premium and shark blue, green astra...
When I switched to the merkur 34C everything changed, I enjoy using many of the blades I thought I wouldn't like.
Sorry to hear that: •R89: bit.ly/R89RazorSN
•DE89: bit.ly/DE89RazorSN
•34C- bit.ly/HD34CRazorSN
•Rockwell 6C: bit.ly/Rockwell6CSafetyRazorSN
Had the same result with this razor. Really wondering if I got a bad one or if my technique was so bad with this one. Tried different angles and blades but always getting an irritating result. Almost thought DE shaving is not for me. Made a similar move and bought a Merkur 33C and it is so much better to shave with, non irritating and no razor burn now.
I bought a Wilkinson DE razor last month, and I have to say that I have not nicked myself shaving with it. Of the 5 DE razors...I rate this the best.
Hi geofatboy
I think to change too gillette safety razor good and bad?
Just ordered this shaving cream to try it out. Sofar I've had really good shaves with Parker shaving soap, Arko soap in a bowl and Williams Mug soap. I've heard nothing but good things about Palmolive shaving cream so I'm excited to try it out!
And...?
@@geofatboy And.......it works pretty well. No complaints really. Just lathers nice, has good slickness and just does what it's supposed to.
I bought 2 year's ago the Wilkinson DE Razor i was not pleased with it at all, so i threw it in the bin!
The Classic shaveing cream is excellent the Palmolive!!!
The Wilkinson sword is one of the mildest razor and I get irritation by using mild razors I prefer aggressive razor
I did exactly the same. Straight into the bin. I tried it a few times and the top of the razor was catching on stubble. And the aggression was non existent. Terrible razor.
@@Phessington ....A 'YUMA' is far more better DE Razor; cheap light, and does the job!!!!!
@@gorachand1235 ...me too!
I useally shave with a YUMA, FATIP, and MUHLE R41 !
@@georgemakuca8870 I like to use my merkur futur on setting 6 or 5
About the overhang...
It is designed like that to serve a safety purpose.
The two overhangs are handles tha let you take the blade off the rasor without grabing it by the sharp edges. Caution is still required as even the overhangs are not sharpened, it still can hurt you if you grab them to tight due to how thin they are.
I must be doing something majorly wrong. I cut and burn and bump the crap out of my skin. Just started shaving with this razor. Quit shaving with Gillette after their woke anti men commercial.
To learn something new and be good at it, it often takes more than one try! th-cam.com/video/iDYIrk9Y_cw/w-d-xo.html
Hey Geo, did you guys stop making the bumpy bowl used in this video? I can’t find it on your website now.
Always put a real blade in, im enjoying the derby premiums they last 3-4 shaves.
Hey Geo, nice video! You know what, i think i fell in love with the palmolive cream. The scent is so good! Also the performance is top notch. The best thing about it though, is the price, 85 cents a tube, locally here in Germany. Alright Geo, im out too!
its not a good razor just off the shelf chinese poor design with the wilkinson sword logo it cuts some people to bits. wonder if its quality control issue. the king c is better
Watching the Wilkinson razor work its magic is like witnessing a precision dance on that beard! 💈✨ Slicing through like butter and leaving nothing but a smooth masterpiece. #SmoothShave #WilkinsonMagic
#GeoFatBoy #dapper_steps
Nicely put-very eloquent!
@geofatboy how do you compare Palmolive cream to other cream/spoap products you like and prefer? Since you're expert and i'm in Europe, wanna now if it's better to go with let's say Green Proraso or green Palmolive in terms of lubricity (gliding). Thanks in advance.
Creams are YMMV so try them both and see which one you prefer. I find myself using the Proraso much more often if that helps.
I'll take my Wilkinson over my expensive razors any day. It's a terrific product, especially for the money.
Really? Interesting.
Feather blade for the rescue !
Hi, I bought my first DE razor, a King C Gillette just over 4 weeks ago because the 3 blade cartridges got more expensive again. I tried it out, was quite satisfied, but it left some stubbles under my jawline (with the King C Gillette blades). So I decided to buy the Wilkinson as well. I find the Wilkinson a bit more aggressive, giving a better shave (both with KCG and Wilkinson blades). Afterwards I tried different blades (no name Supermarkt ones, said to be unbranded Personna red). They for sure were sharper, more aggressive than the Wilkinson and KCG. Now the interesting part: I found them to reverse what I found out about the razors, with those blade the Wilkinson seems to be a little bit milder than the King C Gillette, the Gillette a bit more aggressive than the Wilkinson. Is that even possible or am I wrong? Thanks for your review, I agree, both razors are well suited for beginners like me. Though I like the Wilkinson a little bit better.
the Wilkinson cuts people to shreds
For a safety razor or course sorry should have made myself clear
Wilkinson premium e feather.. top🪒👍
Palmolive shave cream is good stuff for cheap.
Hahaha and I am standing here in Germany and try to use a american creme.
By the way I use the Wilkinson too, since a year.
Ha Ha! Don't feel bad about that. Many people over here drive German cars...
Wilkinson is Greatist razor but I User Russian Blades Vishood, or Parma or Astra they are greats.
Thanks for sharing
😎👍

Never thought i would see a Danny Aiello shaving video lol
Hi Geofatboy. I AM from Portugal. I start on the Wet Shaving. Frist I Buy Wilkinson Sword Premium Edition, comes dis Double Edge Razor + 5 Blades + Blue Shaving Soap + Finest Bristle Shaving Brush. My Mother in Law, live in London and She Give it to me The Kit of King C Gillette, The Double Edge Razor, 5 Blades, The Transparent Shave Gel, and 10 Blades. I Have The Palmolive Sensitive Shave Cream. And More Double Blades Edge to Try, Astra SP Platinum, Treet Platinum, Bic Chrome Platinum, Gillette Platinum. The King C Gillette is now in Portugal to Buy. Please do a Batalle , Wilkinson Sword Premium Edition VS King C Gillette, and The original Blades, that came with The Razor. Thanks you.
I just bought it with the Wilkinson blades I did two passes and I really could have gone one and done. My face was on fire really, cause I made the typical newbie mistake of pressing too hard like a cartridge, lol. No nicks though, I was very careful. I'm getting a sampler pack with some feather blades and 17 other brands. So that should be fun.
I am sold on double edge shaving, it's a very close and nice shave and so cheap vs. 3, 4 and 5 blade cartridge. I just have to learn to not be heavy handed. I knew not to be too, but just forgot. My skin does not like me right now, I had to break out the Polysporin, Aloe, you name it. But, the parts of my face that are not on fire, yeah, nice shave, just wonderful. Their blades though?! Meh, they are "o.k.", but I know so many other brands are cheaper and better and can't wait to order and try out my 100 pack of sampler blades
I might just get some Proraso sensitive skin pre save, what do you think of that stuff Geofatboy?
I just bought this exact razor today but it was branded Schick. Looking forward to giving it a go in the morning.
Enjoy!
I go this as my first DE razor. I agree with your comments accept I have no issues with the grip as a left hander. Cheers.
Sounds good! Thanks for sharing
Excellent video. Thanks for the shaving lesson.
Glad you liked it!
Used to use gilette mach 3 razors, one time I didn't find them and picked up wilkinson cartridge razors, awful, really bad job. Picked up this a few days ago, still not good enough. On your gilette safety razor review you spoke better of it. What is it with this company making subpar razors
Still waiting for shipping to India! I think it'll take an eternity 😷😔🪒
@S.K Thanks for info.😊
Geo💈💈 One of these days maybe you could show in a video how to "shim" a blade for more aggression, what do you think? This razor is definitely on the mild side, very similar to the black plastic Wilkinson Sword razor. I had to buy this cream on Amazon because nobody carried it, glad to see you are. Great video and review, thanks. Stay safe.
Hello there Jim....I am sure Geo will give you the answer your looking for, but I would drop in a feather to raise the aggression level. Have a great day!
Sorry!!!! Terry
Has anyone else used Palmolive shaving cream? Sounds interesting.
Here in the UK, the Palmolive shaving cream is available in almost all supermarkets and pharmacies. Its inexpensive and produces a great leather. You can't go wrong with it
i dont like the razors from wilkinson and k.c. gilette. when I shaved with them, it just pulled - with new blades too. i love my edwin jagger
Try the Feather Blades: shavenation.com/search?q=feather+de+blades+
@@geofatboy i try it and bro they make my face like letterface from the chainsaw massacre 😂 ... i love the voskhod blades
Haha Highway To Hell before becoming a Christian channel. I always listen to Planet Rock which is a digital channel in the UK. You guys must have it over there 'cos Alice Cooper is one of the DJs. That guy is funny AF. I don't think he'd commute to the UK though.
Wilkinson Sword Butterfly razor, where can I get this in India in Bangalore city. Also can you share link for Parker 60R razor.
what makes it a this razor milder shaving razor despite putting the feather blade in?
I have this razor it was like £15/20 from the supermarket
I don't know much about shaving and you are like the master!
Bottom comes loose. Pushing blade back more horizontal. Even when tightened full, blade seems not bend enough. Feels rough...no go for me.
Hello. I'm 17 and since i started shaving(at around 15) i've always had problems with irritation after shaving(with cartridge razors). I am completely new into shaving with DE razors. Would you recommend this razor for a beginner like me? I have to mention that i have light bear growth
Should be fine just be careful and take you're time
the shaving blade sticks out on the sides. So on the Wilkinson Classic Razor, be verry careful when shaving under your nose area. Sorry for mine bad english! You could also look for king c gillette!
If i am right, those have a rounded edge, so no blade exposure on the side.
Wilkinson SWORD razor and W blades are THE ONE AND ONLY FOR MEN.
Hey Geo, I have the same set up with the Wilkinson and feather, and for some reason I can’t go Against the grain on the neck, I will get all nicked up, yet when I have my mercur stubby more of a comb style opening as opposed to the finer comb on the Wilkinson it doesn’t bother me!
Does that tell you which is the better razor?
@@geofatboy oh yeah for sure, never thought it would matter but... it’s the merkur everyday for me, alternating between blades but feather seems to be most aggressive. Thanks for the videos they are great!
Great shave Geo. I have that razor and use it occasionally. I also use a Feather blade when I use it.
i wonder which one people think is better, this wilkinson classic razor or the King C, Gillette?
i believe they are in the same price range.
Just curious which is better between the King C Gillette and the Wilkinson?
Both are similar, slight edge to Gillette
You should've stuck with the blade it came with. Then this video would've been a more accurate review of that razor as it comes. Also, some of us don't use the more expensive blades, so you could have given us tips on how to get a good shave with milder blades
Try the Astra Superior Stainless - works great with the Weishi head.
www.refinedshave.com/razor-blade-sharpness-summary/
Crappy blades are crappy blades. After one shave with the Wilkinson blades I recycled the lot of them. There are good mild blades. These aren’t them.
What would you recommend for a beginner this or the Gillette king c they are both about the same price point.
I have both razors and in my opinion the King C Gillette is a better razor.
Kevy Shaves, like me seems to prefer the Wilkinson/Weishi: th-cam.com/video/t3viO6ZEFRQ/w-d-xo.html
It's a YMMV thing like most stuff related to shaving. You gotta buy both to find out. ;)
Really disappointed that they’ve stop producing the shaving sticks that are so popular and what they are famed for. It leaves Muhle, Arko and TOBs as the last major producer of shaving sticks. Apparently those last even longer than typical shaving creams.
It looks like this razor would suit me perfectly fine for weekdays use just to see how mild it is. I'm still cutting my self a little too much with either the King C Gillette nor the Viking Revolution so I guess I just need a milder razor, especially since I'm a beginner that started safety shaving for around a month and a half. I wouldn't go back to cartridge shaving, even if it would mean to me less cuts. And cartridge would never shave as close as what the safety razor can do! But once I'll go through all my blades (I have like 3 KCG remaining, 6 or 7 Viking and 5 Wilkinson (bought the razor yesterday)), I think I might go toward a combination of the WSword + Feather blades since I never really liked the feel of the Viking Revolution handle overall... As for the KCG, might simply keep it for when I need to shave after a weekend of non-shaving (I'm usually not shaving on Saturdays nor Sundays).
In the end, always great videos you show us. They help us making ourselves more confident into going the safety razor route!
What's better this or EJ89? For sensitive skin. with a feather blade, is it the same performance?
bit.ly/DE89RazorSN
@@geofatboy thanks
Your last video about blades yet you started with Wilkinson blades. And i wonder when you changed it; and after 10 seconds changed. No1 always will be same.
Geo is their any other blade maybe a new brand that came out that is sharper than a feather
Not that I'm aware of
Just got this razor last week while at the cottage. Forgot my razor.
Great shave for my beard growth.
I shy away from feather blades. Always get cuts. I personally like my bic platinums.
Prova la Palmolive!
Adoro quest'uomo...👍
🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🇮🇹 🍕🍕
The Brush is just fantastic, nice shave, i have a request, can you do a video with C O Bigelow shave creme, because in my opinion you can find in this creme shave , the old , vintage formula of Proraso green, end it is fantastic. Greeting from Romania👍
I did not have a pleasant experience with the Wilkinson blades. Thanks Geo for letting me know that the razor isn't aggressive, even with another blade. I am going to pass on this razor. I have a heavy beard.
Fa piacere vedere un video così chiaro anche io uso Palmolive soprattutto con il caldo. Il Wilkinson è un buon rasoio per cominciare 😊
