MWF did also update their vegetal base recently (2024 edition) and it's as good as the old Tallow version IMO only it's easier to lather up now. Get well soon Buddy.🙏😎🙏
Another great shave, Randy, thank you! Glad to hear you're feeling some better. Sure know what you mean about the ribcage hurting after coughing so much. Hope you get some rest today. Got my Merkur Progress and am really liking it. It has more blade feel than any of my other razors, but I actually like that. Do have to be careful, though. Also got my HC&C Tall Boy brush and love it! The larger handle fits my had well and gives great control. Have a great rest of the week! ~Dave
Hi Randy, thank you so much for the new video of you. I liked it very much. The products you present are not unknown to me. As I read in some comments, were you sick? I hope nothing bad. But it's nice that you're feeling better again. I wish you all the best and a speedy recovery. Have a nice day with your family Randy. Best regards, 👋😉💈💈🪒🎸
@@randyshaves7956Thanks, I do not have those tools so I cut the bristles like you did and used my dremel tool to hog everything out. Took forever but got it done.
@@randyshaves7956 Actually, it was a brush Bobby Moffett made for me. He used a FS knot and it did not work for me. On your recommendation I replaced it with an AP Shaves 26mm SynBad bulb knot and I love it.
Great shave buddy, hope you feel better soon, I’ve been lucky upto now I haven’t had it. I have the old puck and it will last me years 😂 Hope you have a good week Atb Paul
It's not vegan, as vegan means zero animal products. That would mean no lanolin ("wool fat"). Tallow has nothing to do with the soap's name, but lanolin certainly does, even if "wool fat", as you point out, is a bit of a misnomer. If they were to make the soap truly vegan, they would have to change its name. Hope you feel better soon. Current versions of covid are milder, but still far more prone to turn serious than the flu - so take care of yourself, and take no chances.
Hi Randy- Wonderful shave; thank you! Keep feeling better and best regards!

Thanks so much Jens for watching! Hopefully I'll get over my illness soon! Thanks again!
Update: based on the ingredients list you showed it looks like you used the 2024 edition MWF.
Yes, I used the 2024 version.
Randy, Can you share your technique for removing the Simpson knot?
I cut all the hair down even with where the knot enters the handle. Then I put the correct size forstner bit in my drill press and drilled it out.

@@alspencer2794 Great! SImpson puts them in there don't they?

I've got both the old and new formulation. The old version is superior in every aspect, and it's a shame they took out the tallow.
Vegan no. Tallow fantastic
