I love your "Shave Gear of the Year" videos. A must watch every year, and I review the previous gear of the year videos before I make a purchase, or when deciding what might be best to try. Thank you Nick!
Just starting out with wet shaving and your videos have been a tremendous help. Honestly, thanks a bunch. Watched your best of the year videos and was wondering, besides your individual favorites you have listed, any chance for an all time top 3 of each category type video? Thanks again and good luck with your interviews if you're still doing them.
This was very informative. I make soap and was thinking of a shaving soap. I also appreciate your knowledge of scents and your ability to differentiate the various notes. I will be referring back to this videos and will check out others. Thank you so much!
Great video Nick 👍 Some people say there is no difference between dyed and blonde boar bristles, but my brand new Semogue 620 is definitely softer and less scrubby than my 1 year old Semogue 610.
I tried Reef Point's Earl Grey and Ginger. It's a really damn fine soap. I'm still a huge, dedicated fan of Wholly Kaw's vegan line of soaps. They're amazing! Fast and easy to work with and they give a smooth slick shave, plus my skin is left moist and cared for afterward. Impressive!
Great video . I am using my merkur 38c . ( different blades ) My Capt Fawcett super badger brush. And I got some Nightbridge shave cream . It is made in England. I love it . I finish off with the nivia after shave balm. Keep up the great videos . Thanks .
So right about Test Depth! Both shave and face feel are exceptional, and the fragrance comes across as more finely-crafted the more you're exposed to it. Tried it on your recommendation. Thanks!
oui c'est vrai j'ai rockwell 6c et je ne le regrette pas, il est super avec ses 6 règlages de hauteur de lame, avec ce rasoir, il faut l'acheter en premier et après plus besoin d'en acheter d'autre !
Maan I've learned so much from your videos. I just wonder how frequently do you shave so your skin won't get irritated? And are you a night shaver or morning? I just got my Merkur 34c and I wonder what time would it take for a smooth skin, as cartridge razors irritate my neck really bad and still cant get off of ingrown hair, not much but still.
Great 2017 wrap, as usual. You were the first video reviewer I watched several years ago and still my favorite. Anyone else out there think of Fine as being a production level product and not all that Artisan? Wish you had featured a more truly artisan aftershave. But Fine is a great product. Thanks for doing all this!
Love the Rockwell C. It has replaced my 34c as my go to razor. I’m going to look into the razor Rock silver tip. I got cheap badger brushed amazon and didn’t enjoy it all all I’ve been want something of better quality but brushed like the simpsons are above what I want to spend.
Great list. I've waited long for this video to come out. Rockwell 6C is on my price range since I'm a cheap kind of guy as I wouldn't buy stuff that's out of budget. Synthetic brushes are definitely brushes that I could really buy if I want to buy a shaving brush. Tabac is on my wishlist for soaps to buy. Blades are very subjective since they work differently for everyone. However, I'll incluude the Feather blades on my blade sampler pack. Other than that, great list so far
Can you make a tutorial on how high to shave up on the sideburns? Sometimes I shave too high, sometimes too low, and sometimes one sideburn is longer than the other.
Great review Nick. Thoroughly enjoyed that one and thanks for finding the time to make a video for all of us. Your selection is fantastic across the board. Take it easy!
Synthetic brushes are lather MONSTERS, too. They're also cheap, easy buy in. If you forget a Razorock Plissoft in some distant hotel you were vacationing at, no worries. I think they're only like $6 or $8 dollars to replace ;)
jmr5707 Indeed. The only time I’m not as big on them is when the soap is uber thirsty. For me the thirstiest soaps perform best with natural hair since they retain water.
Rockwell should make a short handle for their razors. I have the ATT Atlas and this handle combined with the Rockwell 6S and 6C is amazing! Don't get me wrong, the original handle is excellent, but if you are like me and prefer a shorter handle, this works really well.
muhle r41, astra , proraso, muhle fibre i think wet shaving is prone to more irritations and cuts compared to cartridge style but more efficient regarding how one can apply the cream with the brush, wide variety of blades and soaps also, wet shaving is like a ritual compared to cartridge shaving which is more a routine
Petru B. You're doing it wrong then. Remember that it's a process that shouldn't be rushed. Using quality items and products helps. I have far less cuts and irritation after switching to safety razors. Try getting a more mild razor like a vintage Gillete slim adjustable that you can tune to a setting that isn't so aggressive.
Great favorites!! If you like vetiver, you should try the Proraso cypress and vetiver scent! One of my favorites! Along with the Cyprus and vetiver shave cream!
Hi Nick- Great 2017 re-cap of your favorite shave gear; thank you! I really enjoy using my Rockwell 6C, as well as the 6 S. Both are just fantastic as daily razors. I usually pair mine with a Kai blade and they work seamlessly for me. Take good care, Nick, and all the best!
Hi Nick, thank you for your videos. I’m new to DE shaving so I’ve watched most of your videos and have learnt a lot that’s improved my shave. I have a murker 34c but I found an Edwin Jagger DE89 with a rubber handle that I’d like to get to gain more control. Could you please do a review on these? I know their both beginners razors but I don’t know how they compare.
Nick, I really appreciate your very informative TH-cam channel and, in particular, your annual recommendations. Thanks to you, I recently switched to the Merkur 34C DE safety razor and in only a few days I've noticed a considerable improvement in the quality of my shaves. Unbelievably smooth results with no nicks or razor burn with my usual Astra Premium blades, though I'm considering Personnas based on your recommendation. The Barrister & Mann Spice is a top quality soap but I'm still trying to dial-in that perfect lather (any suggestions?) before I try their much touted Seville. Thanks again, Nick, and all the best.
hey nick i noticed you love the personna lab blues .. but i dont think you never have done reviews on the other personna blades like the personna Israeli reds, personna crystal, personna med prep
Awesome video as always, Nick! Congrats. Really inspiring for wetshaving. Have you ever tried the Model T? I am really keen to getting one of these Rockwells because I have been willing an adjustable razor to my collection. What are your thoughtson 6C vs Model T?
Hey Nick is the 6s noticeably more aggressive than the 6c due to weight? I find myself doing a beard off if I miss shaving for 2 days so for that task I need the aggression but if they are similar for the price can't beat 6c.
I still like VosKhod Blades (super sharp!) but a Dorco can suit me fine. Anyone else notice how they are slowly easing up the prices of blades (definitely in the NYC area)?
Awesome Nick. I have always trusted your recommendations and never disappointed. 6c is great, for me it’s number 2 behind my merkur slant. The fine and prorasso are my go to also but I wonder Nick if you apply moisturiser post shave? If so what would you recommend? Thanks for producing this in your busy schedule.
Great products Nick. Nice video! Where's the medicine cabinet? Lol. I know you miss it. I have both versions of the Rockwell 6, I think the 6C actually shaves "me" better. Win. More shave videos please. Enjoy!
Too bad there's not gonna be a shave gear of the year 2018 :/ I just hope that you are now a very busy and successful doctor and that's the cause you stopped uploading. But at least you could upload a last video, a goodbye and update us on the situation. I hope you are fine. :)
Happy Easter Nick! That was a great set of gear you shared with is, so thank you! Any chance you can use the RR Badger Brush in your next recorded shave? I have been curious about that brush for quite a while. Thanks Nick!
What's better the merkur futur or the Rockwell razor? For me the best synthetic brush is the razorock plissoft it's low priced and just as good as the original plisson and more balanced than the kong I think it's called. As for blades what mild/smooth blade outside of derby do you recommend? Lastly for you what's better tabac, arko, or cella?
OK, I have them both and to me, sorry to say I seem to get a slightly better shave from my Merkur. It could be the angle, but again, it's just for me. It's also nice to be able to adjust without taking the blade and plate off. I like Voskhod or even a Lord Stainless for a good combo of a sharp and smooth, blade.Tabac > Arko > Cella.....
I prefer Yaqi synthetic over plissoft. Tabac-Cella-Arko it is for me. Gillette Silver Blue or Nacet for me also. And I agree, the Rockwell is better that Futur. Cheaper and more controlled razor, very safe on the face. Buy one.... yesterday!
1. Can't comment. 2. Try Yaqi synthetics too. 3. Go to tryablade if you're in the US and try them all. Mild is relative. Personna works well too. 4. Tabac is practical. Look into Soap Commander too if you want a long lasting practical soap. Stirling unscented too.
Great rec on the Reef Point. Just got it and it blows doors on my Truefitt. On another note, I’m sure the wife already told you, but whoever scalped you decreased your handsomeness by 1 on a 10 scale. Too short dude.
T Rex at least he don’t try to share his political views about the alt-right agenda like IAMCDB does. Which would be fine itself but cdb sounds kind of incoherent when he try’s to do such
Hey Nick thanks for the reply. Inspiring videos really! Just bought the Rockwell 6c gunmetal,great razor! No offence for my previous comment, right? George
The Best Shave Brushes on the Market today? The Simpson King Charles III Coronation Chubby 3 Fiber brush with a special handle has Softer Hair. Is a Brush Monster, densely packed, reasonably priced for its size?. The Trafalgar's T-3 has a little Harder hair. It's 29mm? Buy one and measure it for yourself?? ' It's a clone of a 30mm Chubby 3 Super Badger Shaving Brush without paying for the Super Badger Price . 1, No need to clean your Brush, 2, No need for Brush Stand, 3, NO SOAKING time ready to Go, 4, Fast drying time, 5, Badger or Boar Brushes can and will fall apart Sooner than Later. Your mileage may vary? ?, 6, No Break in time, 7, No need for a Brush Stand, 8 Modestly Priced for its size. Rinse Brush in Cold Water and let dry. I have used it going on 6 Years now' with know Hair Loss. Derby black it's the same price as the green Blades?. Wheelchair Larry Happy New Year
Feathers are OK, but they don't last longer than other blades, and the additional sharpness doesn't justify the higher price. For those who need ultimate sharpness at any cost, this is the choice; otherwise, it's not worth it.
I agree, but the problem is that after two passes the difference is negligible, and after three virtually non-existent. For better or worse, I have a beard that no razor-blade combination on earth can do effectively in one pass. (Believe me, I've tried.)
I can only use them in the mildest razors and I still get neck irritation. The second and the third shaves are better than the first, then the fourth is awful. I toss after three.

Hey Nick, I was a 100% animal hair brush man until I got the Lil Brudder. Holy cats, that's an amazing brush! Thanks for the great updates!!
Where can i get one?

oui c'est vrai j'ai rockwell 6c et je ne le regrette pas, il est super avec ses 6 règlages de hauteur de lame, avec ce rasoir, il faut l'acheter en premier et après plus besoin d'en acheter d'autre !
Good to hear from you Nick.
Maan I've learned so much from your videos. I just wonder how frequently do you shave so your skin won't get irritated? And are you a night shaver or morning? I just got my Merkur 34c and I wonder what time would it take for a smooth skin, as cartridge razors irritate my neck really bad and still cant get off of ingrown hair, not much but still.

Great video Nick. I have a Rockwell 6c and love it. I get great shaves with it. It is my go to razor.

GoldenSteelTV enjoy the Rockwell when you get it dude 👍🙂
Can you make a tutorial on how high to shave up on the sideburns? Sometimes I shave too high, sometimes too low, and sometimes one sideburn is longer than the other.
Vernal Chahal indeed. Lol
Just point your cheekbones, or ear lobe or under the ear.
I think it’s more of a personal preference as to how high/long you like to have your sideburns so it’s different for every individual
Great review Nick. Thoroughly enjoyed that one and thanks for finding the time to make a video for all of us.
Your selection is fantastic across the board.
Take it easy!
Synthetic brushes are lather MONSTERS, too. They're also cheap, easy buy in. If you forget a Razorock Plissoft in some distant hotel you were vacationing at, no worries. I think they're only like $6 or $8 dollars to replace ;)
jmr5707 Indeed. The only time I’m not as big on them is when the soap is uber thirsty. For me the thirstiest soaps perform best with natural hair since they retain water.
Miss your regular videos big time Nick !!
Awesome video! Crazy to see you step away from the 34C! Rockwell 6c must be worth it. I’ll give it a try
Can you do a skin care routine, when younare not shaving?
Beard oils. Face scrubs. Plenty of skin care Aside from shaving.
Rockwell should make a short handle for their razors. I have the ATT Atlas and this handle combined with the Rockwell 6S and 6C is amazing! Don't get me wrong, the original handle is excellent, but if you are like me and prefer a shorter handle, this works really well.
Maggard MR3s are probably a good combo too for short yet substantial handles.
Nick- consider reviewing Krampert’s Bay Rum soap and aftershave. For a non-tallow soap, it’s remarkably slick.
can you grade all the gillette blades you reviews.. by your video im guessing greens>silverblues>yellows>blacks>green permas.. is that right?
Great video. I have both 6C & 6S nice shave with both. The 6C has more glide to it but enjoy 6S nice heaven Weight to it.

Your top shaving gear of the year 2017 is very interesting, especially with the background information and reasonings. 💈👍🏼

Can you please make a video talking about how you bloom your soap like how much water to put in and how long to leave it and what temperature
Excellent choices nick shaves!
Love my 6S so much I'm considering getting the 6C
Is there a face-exercise routine I can do to tone my jawline like this guy?
hey nick i noticed you love the personna lab blues .. but i dont think you never have done reviews on the other personna blades like the personna Israeli reds, personna crystal, personna med prep
Learning a lot from your videos. Keep up the great work!
Also a synthetic fan. I noticed PAA just released a synthetic “The Green Ray”. Would appreciate your review. Thanks as always!
Great list Nick!! Shave gear of the year 2018??
Real good review Nick. All great products it seems. Thank you.
Razorock STB Bush is great , their TBFB is incredible also , my personal fav . I LOVE Proraso Green ! I wonder if their Cologne is the same scent ?
Hi Nick. What about a video with your top shave gear of 2018? 😊

tabac is my all time favourite soap , love it , great video
Is your favorite soap Barrister & Mann Seville or 42? Your link goes to 42 but it says Seville. Thanks.
Rip Nick 🙏
Great products Nick. Nice video! Where's the medicine cabinet? Lol. I know you miss it. I have both versions of the Rockwell 6, I think the 6C actually shaves "me" better. Win. More shave videos please. Enjoy!
Thanks nick! Happy Easter!
Been waiting for this video! I've been looking at the 6c but you've now convinced me!
Awesome review bro. I'm so happy you gave feedback on the 6C as I just bought one and waiting for delivery.
Thanks a million.
Suleiman Shaik 6c is great, you will not be disappointed
Nick I checked on Reef Point Soap web site says there from California.
Love these videos!!!! Keep it up the great work
Thanks! Happy Easter!

Спасибо за отличное видео. Жду новых видео
Surprised I thought #63 would be your production soap. Its a favorite you recommended. 👍

1. Can't comment.
2. Try Yaqi synthetics too.
3. Go to tryablade if you're in the US and try them all. Mild is relative. Personna works well too.
4. Tabac is practical. Look into Soap Commander too if you want a long lasting practical soap. Stirling unscented too.
Last not least, try to convince yr vendor to get you 400ml bottle of Proraso green, it's abt 40% cheaper (the liquid) than the 100ml one...
Achim Kohlhage Agreed. And the red one smells incredible!
Welcome back, Nick, 'long time no see'. Guess, you're busy at work, right? Cheers.
Have a Rockwell and I love it! I use feather blades and personna reds. I also love the muhle rocca and the Parker variant.
Shave gear 2020?
Return of the diamond cutters!
For me Feathers were just ok. Astras worked, everyone is different though. I like As cause they last the longest for me.
Awesome video as usual!
Heu Nick! Can you do an Aqua Velva shave doctor? :)
Thanks Nick.
And I race off and order the razor and the Reef Point. Thanks for the info
Great video Nick all great products!! I love Fine FV may be my favorite scent of theirs as well!!
I've been waiting for this video!!
Awesome. Thanks Nick!
looking fit bro,,,like the hair too,,,great video
Love the Rockwell 6C I try to use my other razors but seem to always go back to the 6C
looks like Reef Point has closed shop...
It's Easter folks praise the Lord for what he did for us all those years ago and this was a great video

You do know easter is about fucking right?
ThisIsAPrettyLongUserNameWhyTheFuckWouldHeDoThatSoThatEveryoneWouldThumbsUpIt It is the day the Jesus rose from the Dead. I'm a preacher.
Only a moron believes in the jesus myth.
Who wrote that book you preach from?
I been waiting for this video thanks for the tips sir! Question if you had to choose merkur 34c or the Edwin Jagger de89?
Dustin Gray ,34 c is the better option.
I like 34c is the best option
Thanks
Dustin Gray I would start with de89 as it's milder and then upgrade to the merkur 34c HD as it's a bit more aggressive and heavier
Love Tabac!
What do you know about blue shirts?! He knows something!
Great rec on the Reef Point. Just got it and it blows doors on my Truefitt. On another note, I’m sure the wife already told you, but whoever scalped you decreased your handsomeness by 1 on a 10 scale. Too short dude.
Are you Ok Nick???😣
Armando Oliver he died
@@kingoftfl2149 how do you know????
“If your razor shaves like Crap!?” 😳 Oh My Word! Nick! I’ve never heard you Cuss before? Haha, Lol,

T Rex at least he don’t try to share his political views about the alt-right agenda like IAMCDB does. Which would be fine itself but cdb sounds kind of incoherent when he try’s to do such

Exactly my thoughts
Yeah, Treets are a good way to get sharpness for cheap. The Blacks are super affordable, and the Platinums are my bang for buck.
Sound choices.
