I have a Weishi long handle that actually performs really well. With the right blade, it’s a comfortable and fairly close 3 pass, comparable to my Slim on 5 or 6

Great head to head! Thanks Matt! The van der Hagen was my first de. What a difference when I first went to vintage Gillettes. I started out with a fusion and had the same problem. Happy to say no more ingrown hairs. Cheers!

I just wanted to drop a line for these folks they have hands down the best customer service ive ever experienced. I've not spent a single penny on any thing the sell, I didn't discover them till id spent all my money, but yet when I messeged them for help and advise on a razor I had bought they messaged me back in a timely manner and answered all my questions. I can only imagine how they treat paying customers if there even is a better than that. Good customer service is rare today, and excellent customer service I thought was extinct until yesterday. Needless to say but the next purchases I make will be with razor emporium.

another awesome video man. I was a Harry's user before I went to wet shaving. my first wet shaving experience oddly enough was the Van Der Hagen. very quickly I bought a parker 91r and also around that time got a great price on some vintage gillette razors (2 slims, tech, parat, flair tip superspeed for $5) after using those a whole new world opened up to me. So glad I found wet shaving. The Harry's razor is cheaper than others which is why I used it but man does it ever start pulling baddddd after the first shave.

Great vid as always, Matt!! I started with the MicroTouch then found a bunch of Gillettes from different antique shops. Lucked into a Slim Adjustable which is my "go to"! 💈💈

When I'm in a bit of a hurry Harry's works great for me, close shave have without irritation, but always enjoy the feel of a DE more.

Nicely done Matt💈💈 Thanks for another great video. I haven't used a cartridge razor in ??+ years. Last one was a Track II or Atra type, IDK. Sure glad vintage wet shaving made a come back, artisan soap and my Rex Ambassador makes me happy😉along with several other vintage type razors. Sure, an occasional rough shave happens but that's my fault🤔, not the equipment. See ya next time. Enjoy!

Hi Matt- Another informative showdown shave; thank you! Always appreciate your perspective. I hope you have a great weekend and best regards!

I got into DE shaving after watching your videos and love it. But I also have a Harry's subscription and use that razor every now and then when I travel. I like the shave it gives and would still recommend it even though DE has taken over for me

I tried Harry's as a cheaper alternative to the Gillette fusion, before I went to switched to a de razor and the Harry's was the worst, most uncomfortable shave. I tried fewer days in between shaves and a few other things and nothing helped. I didn't get ingrown hairs, but it just felt like I was using a dull butter knife.

I changed from cartridge/multi blade razors because they really bothered my skin. My face would always feel raw after even using a 2 blade disposable. Switched to a shavet in 2014 then to a DE razor in 2015. Never looked back since and I've converted some of my friends to DE saftey razors aswell.

Wonderful video Matt! I used to use Harry’s before switching to DE safety razors. I don’t believe I will ever go back to my primitive ways 😌 keep up the awesome videos!

Thanks for this video, now I will switch to the double edge safety razor.

@seanstoutgamer

I tried Harry's razor many years ago.... Haven't used it ever since, I don't even remember how it felt on my skin. I never re-purchesed it because I seen so many videos of people saying "It tugs and pulls so much!! So yeah... Saved money!

I have one of those really coarse beards and I switched to DE razors and blades about a year ago. Love the fact there is no drag along my face. I actually do use cartridges once, maybe twice a week depending on time. I do like the Harry's and they are half the price of the big boys. For a quick shave, it's pretty good. I do agree that DE shaving is the best! The blade cost is amazing over those big box store cartridge prices!! Thanks for the comparison! Jim

Matt, I’m 4 month double edge rookie. Loaded up with all kind of products. I bought your Rex Ambassador and received it about 3 weeks ago. I will admit; high quality product, nice weight and balance. Now I have tried level 5 once and did ok. I usually start at 3, then 2 on second pass and will finish with 1 for the 3rd and final pass. I plan to attempt level 6 soon.

Nice video, folks. As always, thanks for the transparency. I had the same experience that Matt described: a good shave (B, B+), but the tugging and ingrown hairs persisted. DE took care of that and more.

I started with that weshi razor. Still have it as my travel razor.

@sshepherd981 5 жыл бұрын

I remember when you threw that razor across the room and I said “ Don’t bust on that razor to hard it started me on DE razors and I upgraded over time to better ones!! Like my 34c , my 63 slim that you guys rebuild amazingly!!!!!!!!! Wife’s xmas present. Lots of people are coming over the DE world now. Your channel helps to show a better shave and save money.
