Totally agree about Douglas, both he and Matt are such great historians when it comes to wet shaving. Their passion is always obvious.
They're both very knowledgable and put out some fantastic shave gear and info for us all. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Hey Kevy, hmm Blackbird, admired this razor as soon as I set eyes on it, owned it one year later and it still reigns supreme in my collection. 👍
Nice shave Kevy, the razor looked like a beautiful piece of engineering.
It's a joy to use Joy! See what I did there? Lol! Cheers. Kevy 👍
Hahahaha nice one Key 👍
Awesome shave Kevy! Nothing better than a BBS. It was fun to watch the month-long sandalwood shaves. Always fun to watch your vids! The 🚨🚔 are back! 😄
Thanks Jeremy. I enjoyed Sandalwood September. The CP are back on patrol in my neighbourhood! 👮
It's fun to try all the different methods for loading soaps and creams on our brushes.
It sure is! 😀
The blackbird is a very efficient razor for such a small blade gap. It has a blade forward design. Great video Kevy!
Thanks Mark. I've only had 1 shave with it but it feels lovely. Looking forward to using it some more. Kevy 👍
Great shave Kevy! Quite the soap and lather! Quite enjoyed the sandalwood September idea. Have a great weekend.
Thanks Peter. I hope you're enjoying the weekend too. Kevy 👍
Another fantastic shave and video. Thank you so much for bringing us these great videos. Fantastic products. Have a great week. Cheers
Wow, i like the design of that razor! Looks really great!
Greetings,
Jens
It's a beauty! Kevy 👍
Always can count on you for a Great shave video Kevy :)
Cheers 👍
In my opinion it gives the best shave of any other razor I have used. No bs. The best.
I've only used it once but so far, I'm not going to disagree with you. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Great ending to Sandalwood September! Thanks for the shout out Kevy, I've been using OSP soaps for most of September, Bart sent me a couple of samples, loved the lime one, full bottles of balm & splash arrived on Friday along with some of those supermax blades you have been using.
Hey Craig, no problem mate. OSP creams are one of the slickest creams out there. Barts stuff is excellent and I hope you like those Supermax blades. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Great shave. It was a great run of sandalwood shaves throughout September. I enjoyed watching these shaves as usual like many other shaves you've done onscreen. As this month comes to end, you start to feel like you can use whatever you want in October because it gets tempting using a soap with a different scent after a run of monthly themed shaves. I got nothing to say but have a great weekend
Thanks for your continued support. It's always great reading all the comments but comments like yours make it all worthwhile putting these vids together. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Great shave! I have that same brush, it has quickly become my favourite brush! You can never go wrong with perma sharp blades one of my top 4 razor blades!
Great shave Kevy.
I have to echo your comment about skin looking better with DE shaving.
I've been DE shaving since the beginning of this year, and my skin looks and feels a lot healthier and spots are a very rare thing for me now (although I didn't get a lot before DE shaving, it's just I get even less now). Even my partner has commented on my skin.
The only skin problem I had with DE shaving, is when I used TOBS. My face went really red and felt stingy and hot. After that I went to Wickham soaps and their balms, and I've never had any other problems.
TOBS sometimes reacts with some people. Kevy 👍
Hey Kevy, I have to make a confession.... The first time I saw you do the face wash with extra lather after completing your shave I thought you were crazy. LOL. So now a year later I had this incredible lather from Eufros Zanzibar tallow soap and I'm like let's do a Kevy and really enjoyed the Eufros all over my face. And post? Yes. Cheers, Mark
Brilliant Mark! I don't see the point in wasting the lather. I do enjoy washing my face with it so I always make more than I need. Cheers. Kevy 👍
It's been a great sandlewood September, got some good ideas of sandlewood to try , have a great weekend
Thanks Dana, I've enjoyed it. I hope you're having a relaxing weekend. Kevy 👍
Beautiful shave brother, I loved it Kevy & that razor was freaking insane! 💈🙌🏼😲🙌🏼💈
A great shave to bring Sandalwood September to a close Kevy. That's a nice looking razor. Enjoy the rest of your weekend mate. Cheers! 😊👍
Good shave Kevy...that cream was a lather monster. And the razor was a work of art and design
Perma sharp blades are my fav..for nick less shave's ...I'm telling my wife the razor only cost 50 bucks
And the shipping with insurance cost 120 dollars because it comes from so far away and they don't have an airport so everything comes over on a boat...and takes a month...I'm so clever...lol
Kiss mr Riley. Enjoy your sunny day cheers!💈👍
Ha ha! And don't forget to tell her that it comes in a 24 carat gold box! Perma Sharp's are a great blade, they work really well for me. Kevy 👍
Great stuff Kevy! Enjoyed Sandalwood September. For October do harvest type scents or spicy type scents. Looking forward to the holiday season. Wishing you well my friend. Till next take care! All the best. Josh.
Thanks Josh. Appreciate you taking the time to watch and leave a comment. I've got som nice soaps to use in the next few shaves. Keep putting the vids out there and congrats on the 100 subs. All the best. Kevy 👍
Nice shave Kevy, have a good weekend.
Great video as always.
Cheers matey! 👍
The Blackland is a very nice looking razor
Great shave Kevy 👍🏼
Ooh! Against the grain! You’ll be wearing thermals under the kilt next😂 great shave Kevy! You are the fortnum and mason of luxury shaving.👍👍👍
Thank you Leon. I'll take that as a lovely compliment. Fortune & Mason is proper posh! 😀👍
A Spectacular Spellbinding Splendiferous Sandalwood Shave. Mr Chapel’s name pops up a lot within this community always associated with acts of kindness.
What a fine fellow indeed. I have recently obtained the Blackland Dart
And was somewhat taken aback by its level of aggression for my tastes.
No doubt though they doing make stunningly beautiful razors.
Thanks Paul. Mr. Chapo is indeed a gracious gentleman. The Dart does have a little more blade feel than the Blackbird. Beautiful razors. Kevy 😀👍
Kevy, that's a beautiful looking razor. It sure was singing for you. Brush is pretty awesome too. The shaving community has some pretty darn nice people in it. What a random act of kindness from your friend.
Great shave kevy,nice nice razor ! Have a try of bart's Morrocan Amber & jasmine range.Beautiful scent .cheers buddy, Col.
Great Shave Kevy - The Lather King! ;-)
Thanks Mike. I like my lather rich and creamy and like mayonnaise! Cheers. Kevy 👍
The parrot got your shoulder Kevy! I'm digging that Blackbird!
Frank from Boulder, Colorado
Kevy have you ever done the face wash with the lather then go over it with the alum before you rinse feels really good must try it mate
I'll try that John. Cheers for the tip. Kevy 👍
Nice shave Kevy, I can see why you were tempted to buy that pretty razor. 😌👍
Oyvey is a great chap, one of the very best.
You made me laugh with your “Christmas is coming”comment, I was thinking of waiting until Christmas to buy a Feather DX a few weeks ago, my good intention didn’t last 5 minutes.
Have a good weekend !
Dave Card :o i hope your well. enjoy yr new razor.
Thank you Chris, I am, and the Feather is awesome. I hope you are well.
Ha ha! Cheers Dave. Your temptation impulse is crap! Lol! All the best. Kevy 👍
Kevy Shaves ha ha 🤣 I know, we’re 2 lost causes 🤣
Good evening Kevy! The Blackland Blackbird is a step-up from the Dart. I think my Dart is a very efficient razor and I need to be careful what blade I pair with it. Lately, I have been using Treet carbon (black) blades and find those are magic. When I went to Pasteur Pharmacy I bought the PAA Atom Rocket brush...great brush eh? It is my opinion, razors from the likes of Karve Shaving Co, Above the Tie, Blackland, Rex, etc...those are so well make and worth the money spent. Do they perform better than a less expensive? If the measure is getting the job done, then no. If the measure is a more enjoyable shave experience and/or longer lasting shave, then yes...they perform at a superior level. My ATT Windsor Copper is so smooth...almost like no blade in it...and gives a close and comfortable shave always. The Blackland Dart is not as smooth or as comfortable, but a light touch and two passes will give you a BBS that lasts 30 hours. Kevy, what is that in the upper right corner of my screen...above the shower door...red color...I can read classic...is that those toffee biscuits? Oh, Imperial Leather soap...lol. Anyway, great shave! Thanks for posting. Take care.
When I get my Dartback, I'm gonna do a comparison vid. The PAA brush is really good, I love the feel of it in the hand. Most razors do the same thing - shave the stubble off - but it's the build quality and materials used that you're paying extra for. I enjoy using a £10 razor as much as this Blackbird, but you can really feel the difference in quality. If that were toffee biscuits, the packet would have been empty! Al the best. Kevy 👍
Yes, looking forward to the comparison video for sure. The PAA Atomic Rocket is a monster...and a classic beauty. I can agree with that...workmanship, quality, superior materials, optimal design, aesthetics are the reason for the increase cost. I can get behind a functional piece of art. I will still maintain they make the experience more enjoyable and they are more efficient in their work.
Nicely done Kevy, great shave. I'm thinking you like the Blackbird better than the Dart. I have both and find the Blackbird less aggressive, contrary to the Blackland website,,,!? IDK. OSP I've never tried, like the label with the incense cones though. Sandalwood September is over and it was a good series. Now for October and Autumn scents etc. Another great video and chat. Enjoy!
Hey Terry. The Dart is out on loan to a fellow shaver at the moment but when I get it back, I plan on doing a comparison shave with it and the Blackbird. It does feel a little smoother than the Dart, less blade feel for me. I stil like the shave from the Dart too. Thanks for watching and the comment. Kevy 👍
There we go again, another video and this time four aftershave lotions ordered from Barts! An addictive hobby, tell me about it. What was that razor?
Ha ha! Nice one Stuart. I hope,you,told them Kevy Shaves sent you for the balms! Lol 😂 The razor is a stainless steel razor and made by a company in the US called Blackland. The model of the razor is called the Blackbird. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Hi Kevy- This was a great Sandalwood September series of shaves; thank you! Very nice-looking razor and brush combo today; the soap looked great, as well. I hope your weekend has gotten off to a great start. Best regards and all the best!
Thanks Mike. It was good fun trying out all the different Sandalwood soaps and creams. I hope you're having a relaxing weekend too mate. All the best. Kevy 👍
Wow, that razor was indeed more than worth the wait! In your opinion (I know you've only used it once thus far) is it significantly smoother than the Dart!? I was ordering the Dart but waited when I saw in some of the forums that it is quite efficient bordering on being outright aggressive. I know this is more expensive but seems to be worth it (at least for me). I like aggressive shavers but for daily shaving smoothness just can't be beat. Cheers, Kevy!
It does feel smoother than the Dart, not by a great amount but for me, the Dart has a bit more blade feel on the face. I still don't think it's smoother for me than the Rockwell 6S but I've not used it with different blades. That might make a difference. Cheers. Kevy 😀👍
Thank you, that was very helpful information for me. I'll be pursuing this razor next as well! Thanks Again!
You can nickname your shave "The Tennessee Ernie Ford" shave. From his song: You load 16 tons and what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt!
My blackland dart and my rockwell 6s came today. My first safety razors. So tonight, I'll either have a great shave, or I'll need a doctor. Wish me luck lol
Good luck! Take your time and dont press down onto your face like you would with a cartridge razor. Try the 6S on plate 1 or 2. Let me know how it goes. Kevy 😀😉
I havent used a cartridge razor since I was a teenager lol. Been using a straight razor the last 20+ years. I'll let you know how it goes and how many pints of blood they had to put back in me :)
@@kevyshaves4109 well, I just tried shaving. And I'm happy to say I have emerged unscathed lol. Decided to go for it and used the dart with a polsilver super iridium blade for the first shave. No nicks or cuts this time, but theres always next time lol. Not super impressed with the polsilver blade sofar. Felt like it was grabbing a bit and not just cutting through smoothly, though it might have to do with how thick my facial hair is. I didnt get quite as close as I do with my straight razor, but its not bad. Only went for 2 passes till I get the hang of it. I'll try the rockwell 6s next time and with a different blade. My only real issue is that I'm 6'4 and have to hunch down to see myself in the mirror near the sink. Otherwise all I see is my chest lol. With a straight razor I just sit at my desk and wipe the blade as needed, instead of having to rinse it off in the sink like you do with a safety razor. But, all is good and I look forward to many more shaves to come.
@@TietLung Congrats on making it to the end of the shave without any drama. Lol, that made me chuckle about you having to hunch down to see in the mirror 😂 Cheers. Kevy 👍
@@TietLung My apologies. I assumed - wrongly - that you were coming over to DE shaving from carts. Kevy 👍
It's amazing how long many of us tolerated awful shaves before making the leap to this 'cheaper' way of shaving. Maybe Flash will do an Ogallala October shave.
Ha ha!
Hey Kevy, I need to catch up on the rest of your Sandlewood Sept, you have some nice razors now with this addition, it's interesting that Cris from another cut above says that the chap from NY that sent you the razor and other goodies gets nothing but grief from Facebook users, yet the guy seems so generous and asks nothing in return.
I didn't know that he gets grief. He's a very generous, kind individual. I've sent him stuff in return from the shaving shops in London when I was there. He never asks for anything in return. I've added some really nice razors recently to my den. Cheers. Kevy 👍
nice video kevy..
does mrs kevy know you spent £130 on a razor or is it hush hush.. keep up the great work
Thanks. Yes, she knows how much it costs. Still not as much as she spends on jackets and shoes! Lol 🤣
👍
Great shave kevy and yes if it's not Scottish it's crap
👍🤣
Do you use the blade one or more times?
I usually use a blade 2-3 times. Kevy 👍
Just to note...James is currently not trading atm afaik :)
I think he's moving house at the moment. The link I've put in the description is for another UK vendor that stocks OSP. Kevy 👍
That is one pricey razor. But a fair point was made; those stainless razors take time to make and they’re machined, not cast. The CNC machines are super expensive and they knowledge to use them is college level.
I love my Atomic Rocket; Doug’s products are top-notch.
I guess I’ll give the face was a try. If it doesn’t work, you owe me a package of Jammie Dodgers. Deal?
Ok, you got yourself a deal! And if it does work, I'll eat the whole pack of jammie dodgers with a cup of tea! 😀 I'll be watching your next vid closely to see if it works for you. Cheers. Kevy 👍
Imagine if you had loaded more product what it would happened!
😂 I think My head would've disappeared in a lather mountain! Kevy 👍
I haven’t herd that expression for face since Robin Williams (rip) did Popeye another fine shave and just to comment razors are like marriage cheaper ones may come and go but the more expensive one will last the testing of time also they can be handed down through time if people know the value in them and that they are not just a cheep piece of rubbish
Aww man, I loved Robin Williams. He was amazing as Popeye. His skit about golf being invented in Scotland is so funny....and probably true! Lol 😂 You're spot on with your comment about the difference in cheap and expensive razors. Cheers. Kevy 👍
First!!!!!
Congratulations! Your prize is a half eaten jammie dodger! 👍
