The 2.0 was my first dive in to traditional wet shaving. I tried, I really did. I was definitely a work in progress. I tried to hone my technique, and as much as I tried, even with the mildest plate, I filleted my face. I loved the razors heft, and also the no BS warranty. If you didn’t like it get your money back. Their customer service was awesome to work with. I tried for a good two months, and just pulled the plug. Now that I am seasoned so to speak, I would like to try it again, and may now that they have that guard on the razor. Thanks for posting the review
Greg...you are killing it. I loved this one. I backed the Pro instead of the SE because I assumed it would be milder than I'd like. I may still get it because of how much I like the Pro and honestly, it's a heck of a razor for the price and sometime I just want to do an easy mode shave. I also did not use the 2.0 so I have no basis for comparison except for my vintage ones. My favorite vintage is somewhere between the Type G and M adjustable and the Pro is definitely my favorite modern and possibly favorite overall injector. I have to say though, as far as easy mode goes, I just got a Henson AL13 medium and it's silly how easy that razor is to use. Automatic, no-irritation BBS. Like you mentioned with getting carried away, I was being borderline idiotic today with how little care I put into angle and pressure, had zero irritation, and still have a perfect BBS. Sorry for the wall of text but you got me all fired up lol. I really enjoy what you are doing and I'm going to hold you to picking your brain for production tips. I'm looking forward to the next video. Thanks for this one and have a great day! -Eric Adams
I participated in the Kickstarter campaign and recently got this razor. I really like the razor! For me, it's at the perfect spot between smooth and efficient. It feels substantial in hand. I like it better than the other injector razor I own (Stick Schick). I've been wet shaving since 2007, so the appeal of the razor certainly isn't limited to new converts from cartridge razors.
Nice!!! Yeah I don’t have anything against it I like it a lot but I think the target market is converts although I enjoy it a lot too. Thanks for sharing
Am I the only one who hasn't gotten a "Supply' razor this week? It appears this is the latest and greatest for the shaving world, at least for the moment. I agree with Ibrahim about leaving the blade in the razor, as I always remove and clean the blade, put it back in the paper wrapper, and stick it to magnets I have on the rim of my medicine cabinet, ready for the next use. With my shavettes I clean and dry the blade and reinstall since they don't have wrappers, just for safety purposes.
Nice video. I do own the 2.0 with the 3 plates. It's a finely crafted tool but for reasons I can't explain I do nick myself more than with my vintage Schick. Is the OC plate on yours reverse compatible with my 2.0?
I’m not sure that it is. I know Supply released the SE Pro that is an adjustable (I couldn’t find that one on their site). This seems to be more plug and play without having to over think which plate or which setting you need
Yes the SE OC is compatible with the 2.0, but I can’t seem to find just the OC part for sale as a stand alone piece anywhere…. I have a 2.0 and want to get the OC plate too.
Nice one Greg!! I love my vintage injector, shaves phenomenally but there’s something about the Supply that just doesn’t do it for me… I’m glad they are bringing people into the hobby which is awesome, but for me vintage is where my heart lies. Have a great weekend eh!
@@GregTardif you’re welcome and thanks, I will!! Fair point, and that’s great for Supply, it sells razors, gets people into the hobby and the community where we get our hands on them, and than next thing they have a massive collection!!
Hey GT I have the 2.0 supply that’s stainless and I had the opportunity to beta test the open comb plate. At that time it was a 3D printed plate. I will not be getting the latest & greatest supply razor. The original works just fine. I was also told by supply that they will be offering the plate separately for use older users. Great video!
Great video Greg! I have the supply 2.0 in copper but it didn’t work for me. Felt a bit mild even with the aggressive base plate and the angle felt a bit odd. Only reason I still have it is because of the unique look it has.
Great video Greg as always. My only worry with this razor is that you have no other choice but to keep the blade in the razor for subsequent uses until you change. I don't like keeping blades in razor after I am done. Can the blade be removed manually after use without having to replace with a new blade?
I think you could get it out. There’s a knob at the top of the handle that can loosen the retainer bit. I know some people remove them from the vintage schick razors after each use. So I don’t see why this would be any different. I’ll try it out and report back
There are lots of the previous 2.0 model that are not stainless steel. They are are alloy too with different coatings (bronze or gold or black etc.). Fun to try something new for sure!
I actually had to ship my Supply razor back. Honestly, though, because of their advertising for the Supply 2.0, I never would have discovered any of these new shaving products (like DE razors and straight edge razors) or this great shaving community. But around the time that I got a Supply razor, I also got a Rockwell 6C and was testing both side by side. In the end, the Rockwell won out because of the various plates for blade gap / aggression, ease of use and being able to change out plates easier, and the greater variety of DE razorblades available compared to injectors. Plus, the Supply razor nicked me considerably a few times even on the lowest setting and with newer Schick blades, so I just packed it up and shipped it back to them today. The Rockwell razor system, however, has been great and I decided to order a 6S because I wanted to see how the stainless steel affects my shave. But yeah, switching to razorblade shaving through these products has been life changing for me, so I owe a lot to the Supply company for just making me more aware of what was out there apart from cartridge blades and straight razors.
Nice! Yeah Supply is the gateway shaver I think. That and maybe the KCG. I’m glad it brought you here to the community and I’m sorry you got nicked you up. Was that the 2.0?
@@GregTardif -- Yes, it was the 2.0. Don't get me wrong though; there were times that I got a great shave with the Supply blades starting off. But over time even with a newer blade, it just nicked me a bit more than I would have liked and I was just using the medium plate and with light pressure, not pressing it hard against my face or anything. I know when I switched over to the Schick blades, though, it really cut me up, and that's what did it, honestly. At least on the Rockwell I could go to a R1 or R2 plate and back off if need be, but not so much for the Supply even at the mild setting.
I picked up the new supply pro today and shaved with it. Not really sure if I’m a massive fan but definitely nice to shake up the weekly shave with an SE and the new black blades are bloody great! But compared to the 2.0 (the og) the build quality seems a little different also (noticed the mirror finish doesn’t seem as clean compared to the Matte finish
Interesting thoughts. I know supply offers a base plate swap for the 2.0 to have the SE (non pro) base plate as well. I never did get my hands on the pro or the 2.0 but I like mine for what it is. Those blades are great. If you have a type e or older schick I DON’T recommend trying to put the key in those razors (btw)
bought one a long time ago and it’s so junk it’s been in a cabinet after 3 tries. I'm watching videos to see if I'm doing something wrong but it does not work well for coarse hair, thick skin, or lining up. build quality is great but it doesn't work for me.
Thanks for sharing! They offer an adjustable one as well that might better for you. But, you could also try the Rockwell 6s too for a awesome shave and safety razors are great for lining up
What did you think about that little knob/button on this Supply SE? I think that button is great to just remove the part to of the razor’s head to clean the inside, which is convenient, but I’m not crazy about how the turning of the button/knob feels. It’s not a smooth turn that comes to a stop, turning it doesn’t feel good quality. How long is that spring on it going to last? And it’s hard to tell when you should stop tightening it and know when you should stop tightening it. What were your thoughts about that? And can you use regular double edge razors to pop in half and insert in this Supply Co. SE Razor? Thanks:)
Feel the same way--almost always feels like I'm stripping it, doesn't feel right. I'm sending mine back, as it's a bear to load blades into it. Ain't got time for it.
Haha, go to town on your face........Okay :) I cant believe Im damn near 63 years of age and never used an injector! Good vid buddy love your format and style, I really thing those ol butterscotch Schicks are good lookin shavers! Tim...
I don’t have a Supply razor and it is not on my radar to get. I have a vintage Schick adjustable type M that I occasionally use, but I normally reach for my RazoRock Hawk V3 when doing a SE shave. Great video review.
I own the supply single edge 2.0 I have not used it in a while until recently.. It was a great shave.. I use the three dot plate and it's amazing.. Single edge razors to me are superior to de safety razor blades in the quality shave in my experience..my favorite are artist club razors,but injectors aren't bad. There's personna mini hair shaper blades for around that price you can get twenty blades.. Injector razors shave well period.
Can’t speak specifically to the GEM. But, it feels very natural in the hand. I know some have gotten the grip sleeve but I don’t find it necessary (for me)
Can I ask a question? I shave maybe once a week. I’m a bit scruffy when I shave. Are there better razors than others that don’t clog up so quickly? I’ve never used a safety razor and I’m wondering if I’ll be wasting my money on all this scruff
I dont use cream when shaving. Would any of their products work for me? If not is there one that would? Ive used Harrys, Gillette, DSC, cartridge stuff with just water but Id like to have something higher quality for a closer shave thats smoother and lasts longer.
There are a lot of shave soaps you can try. Basically you swirl a shaving brush around on the puck of shave soap. You can rub the brush in circular motions to build a lather. It’s pretty fun and a lot of makers and scents to choose from.
@@GregTardif Sorry, how I wrote my comment doesn't make sense. I would like to continue to just use water but improve my shave quality. Would a razor like this be a better performer than the standard cartridge stuff? Or is there another razor I should think about that would be better suited for use with just water. I strongly dislike putting the butter and cream on my face. Ive always shaved without cream or butter.
Ah! Gotcha. Yeah I probably wouldn’t pick this one or a safety razor style one either. The soaps and such help firm up hairs to make it easier to shave off. You could try electric razor, foil ones are good or like a norelco type item.
It’s funny that you prefer the Schick over the Supply for the "mindless shaves" reasons. I feel the same way with straight razors and DE’s where i prefer the "mindfull and concentrated on my shave" when i use a straight compared to the "mindless" shaves i get with a DE razor, if that makes sense… For this reason, i am not attracted to the Supply razor. Sure i’d love to try it, but i won’t take any money out of my pockets for it.
Just to let everyone know... Supply has just changed their return policy to no longer pay for return shipping. Instead they are going to offer you a certain percentage off of their products if you decide to keep them. They Offered me 50% off but I still wanted to return them so they tried to make me pay for return shipping on my own. Luckily they had not updated their website where it stated "Free USA Shipping & Returns For all orders over $35." I pointed this out to the gentleman in chat and he sent me a prepaid return shipping label.
@GregTardif a great detailed educational breakdown of wet shaving products. I'm eager to learn "Ho😂to purchase vintage safety razors on ebay and other sites " any advice on how to spot the red flags?
Thanks Jason, I don't buy a lot of razors on the preowned market. If I do it is from a reputable reseller like razor emporium, the shave mercantile, and sometimes the Razor company. They cost a little bit more but you know they've been checked over and such.
I have ony Schick and the Supply razor. Stainless steel 2.0. I love the supply. Shaves really nice and have some weight! OC? No need i guess. But if it stops that Nick guy. Hey, why not🤣🤣
@@GregTardif not sure about the weight at all. Never looked it up. Btw. The vintage razors which still exists are made out of brass. Not zinc alloy. That zinc alloy wouldn't last that long... So stainless steel is a good thing i guess.
Honestly I don’t recommend this razor because I don’t like the blades that came with it for me due to me having thick hair but sensitive skin and tends to cut your face if not know how to shave it but I been shaving safety razors since 2017 but I still get nicks on it which I prefer safety razors like king c gillette razor, Rockwell and others first than using an injector razors and the blades for the injectors to be get dull quicker for on first use or first or first pass for me others maybe better but the Parker injector blades work better on it but I prefer a safety DE razor is my go to to shave.
Nice look into the razor, Greg! Definitely pros and cons between the new Supply and the vintage injectors. I want an injector something this year, but don't know which way to go...I end up getting the Supply and a vintage! 🤣 For the wife, have you heard of Maxwelljune? I picked up one of their razors my wife last year and she really likes it, so much closer than her Venus cartridges and no nicks as of yet!
They are a little more than DE blades. When you purchase the blades you do get a key (to install the blade) and each razor blade does last a lot more shaves than a DE. IT's not something I use every day but it's a great shaver
Love the videos am torn between this razor and Leaf Twig. Would love to see you review that one. Am making switch from lifetime of cartrige and want to ease into safety razor. When get that was thinking of trying merkur 34c heard good for beginners, any other reccomendations?
Broski you have to pick your lady up the Gillette lady starburst razor I got mine in blue. Now I originally seen this on eBay and seen the 🌟 on it and was like that’s 🔥 for some reason my head started thinking military and I’m a Veteran so it spoke to me. Well with how a second thought I pulled on it right away. The. As I’m waiting I do some research and find out it’s a lady’s so I’m like whatever I’ll give it to the wife. Well now we fight over it because it lines my beard up nicely. She hides it sometimes 😂 not going to lie my legs are butter smooth also. 😂 only issue is that it’s light 😢 lighter not super.
Have you tried a Supply Razor? What do you think?

We’ll welcome you back with wide open arms Mark! And a lot less cuts this time :)

I saw that. When I ordered this one, the pro wasn’t available on the site.

I want an injector something this year, but don't know which way to go...I end up getting the Supply and a vintage! 🤣 For the wife, have you heard of Maxwelljune? I picked up one of their razors my wife last year and she really likes it, so much closer than her Venus cartridges and no nicks as of yet!
Hadn’t heard of that one I’ll do some searching. Thanks!! (Might as well get both lol)
What’s a better shave supply we or leaf twig
🤷
They both give good shaves
What do you recommend more
@@ryantorres4789 either is a great choice. I don’t think you can go wrong.
The Supply SE razor looks like it would be a very good razor, but injector blades seem to be quite expensive.
They are a little more than DE blades. When you purchase the blades you do get a key (to install the blade) and each razor blade does last a lot more shaves than a DE. IT's not something I use every day but it's a great shaver
Love the videos am torn between this razor and Leaf Twig. Would love to see you review that one. Am making switch from lifetime of cartrige and want to ease into safety razor. When get that was thinking of trying merkur 34c heard good for beginners, any other reccomendations?
Hey Kevin. I keep hearing about the twig. I should get one to try. 34c is a good one. You could also look at the Edwin jagger de86.
Thanks for reply i will look into that one!
Thanks for the review - not my cup of tea but enjoy the knowledge - good to see you - cheers
Good to see you James. Thanks for stopping by
So this is where I ended up at 0130 on a Sunday morning 😑
This is where I ended up at 6:17. How ya doing?
Broski you have to pick your lady up the Gillette lady starburst razor I got mine in blue. Now I originally seen this on eBay and seen the 🌟 on it and was like that’s 🔥 for some reason my head started thinking military and I’m a Veteran so it spoke to me. Well with how a second thought I pulled on it right away. The. As I’m waiting I do some research and find out it’s a lady’s so I’m like whatever I’ll give it to the wife. Well now we fight over it because it lines my beard up nicely. She hides it sometimes 😂 not going to lie my legs are butter smooth also. 😂 only issue is that it’s light 😢 lighter not super.
Haha that’s a good thought. She has recently switched between a cartridge razor and electric shaver 🤦♂️
Eight shaves? I can get 30 out of a Harry’s blade.
I "could" get more but 8 is the recommended. Harry's also recommends between 6 and 8 shaves per blade.
More of a DE guy but looks an interesting razor but don't think it's for me, I'd be so bad at loading it 🤣
I’ve got no idea why TH-cam sent me here, since I’m a girl, but if I see Nick, I am gonna warn him.
Haha thanks for watching. Keep an eye out
Proprietary blades🤔 no thanks👎🏼
Just injector blades like a schick or Ted pela
@@GregTardif So other SE blades like Feather will fit as well ?
@@Zygorhiza not those. More like keyed injector blade like Schick and Tom Pella (I think it’s Tom might be Todd)
Actually any injector razor blades will work,from vintage to whatever is made now..
They are not proprietary
