"I fart dust and pee rust"....LOL!!! Ken, that's one of the best expressions I've heard in a long time. I gotta remember that one.

Without fail, I use my alum every time after a shave. Try leaving your face wet, then wet the block.

While it’s true you can’t confirm hypertension off one reading, 140/80 is hypertension, not “high normal”

Try to shave with ... toothpaste! Apply toothpaste wet face, spread with fingers, and wait about 30 seconds. Believe it or not, it will give you the best shave you can ever have. The second choice is shaving oil, like Sommerset's

I don’t get the dual comb idea. Ken buddy I feel like you needed more water in that lather. Stirling can take a decent amount of water.

My favorite razor is a 1965 Slim with a Feather blade. First use on the blade, set it at 7 for three passes. After the first use, set it on 9, 7 then 3. If I'm in a hurry, I use a Voskhod on 9 start to finish. Stirling soap of any kind is my go to soap. I've used the pre-shave soap to shave with and it worked out good as well. Rod and Mandy have an amazing company and possibly the best customer service, well, ever. I really like the looks of that razor.

Hi Ken. Great instructive shave! You and other KZfaqrs have really helped me dial my DE shave in as I learn. Thank you. I have been shaving with a straight razor for 5 years or so but I wanted the variety of using a DE also. I can get a really smooth shave without nicks or irritation with a straight razor but I have to be really careful with a DE razor. I’m still improving my technique. Anyway, my neck is sensitive and I have finally got an adjustable in the right range to shave my face and my neck comfortably. The Rockwell 6S was a great step forward in my process. I learned that plates 1 & 2 were a good range for my neck and my face could benefit from a more aggressive shave. Now I have been using the full range of the Muramasa to get a perfect smooth comfortable shave. Watching you and Kevy and Friendship and a few others really helped me get to this point. Thank you again.

I like the look of that razor Ken and it really seemed to do the job. Good show Ken. Thank you.😊👍

To watch your shaving videos Ken, is such an emotionally nice experience, that I imagine that many of your viewers find them to have a more or less therapeutic value. By the way, your videos are also really good from shaving point of view. God bless you, sir!

I haven’t seen this razor before and it’s nice that I saw it in your review. A very beautiful thing. I had few adjustable DE razors. But only a clone of Merkur Futur stay in use. Very cool packaging alum block. Bright and original. Thank you very much, Ken!

Awesome video! As a new shaver (due to covid and I have to wear N95 in my hospital job), you've been a great source to watch and I've learned a ton. Thank you!
