If that soap were anything like the current WCS Duck Fat Soap, then the amount of soap you started with in the bowl appears to be more than 20 times as much as you need. One eighth of a teaspoon's worth is enough for , once the lather is built, five or so passes.

Was that soap similar to or same as current WCS Duck Fat shaving soap?

This is the best Wunderbar review on YT. Thanks!

Interesting music choice

Excellent video! One of the best I have viewed!

After many years, how much hair has this brush lost? It's worth it?

The CF Legacy in titanium ls my favorite DE ever. The combination of large gap and virtually no exposure is almost a cheat code, especially for those of us who naturally like to shave with a shallow angle. I have collected and tried dozens of razors, so it, in some ways, makes me a tiny bit sad to say that I think I mau have found my forever razor in the CF Legacy.

good tutorial thanks i'm new to wet shaving and was having issues with an effective shave. giving an improved lather a try.

I almost despaired with the badger hair brush, I just couldn't get a solid foam. Thanks to your video it works perfectly now. Thank you very much, you helped me a lot.

Thnx Micheal ☝️

Excellent video! Thank you very much!

Thnx

I also tried a Minora blade for the first time and was very impressed. It's sharp and comprehensive.

Did I miss it? 😂

There is another youtuber "Jack Cecil" he does car videos and boy do you guys look similar. Anyway great review glad that I came across your channel. All the best.

Ride the cap then, Mike?

The maestro

Thnx Micheal 😅

I use CREMO Shaving Cream as a pre-shave. It goes on quite dry but you add water to it and rubbing it in until it becomes super slick. Then you paint the lather over top and shave. In between passes, I never rinse. I wet my hand and wipe excess lather away. That way it retains slickness.

Love long handle brushes. I seek them out. So there

Thnx Micheal 😊

Keep the videos coming 😊

How do you know when to switch to the other blade edge? Is it just by feel or do you use one edge for pass one, then the other pass two, etc. ?

How long do your shaving creams typically last?

Michael, very informative review. I was wondering if you would like to participate in a pass around of the Lambda razors.

Wasn’t aboard til 7- yrs ago good job. Test of time don’t see shave soap around 😞

More vids Mike!!

Isn't the rr Jaws different now?

In these Inflationary Times. HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs Use any hard Soaps out there? To fit in any Mugs or Cups? Like" tallow (Mitchells' Wool Fat or Arko Sticks. Just to name a few of them?) You can mix and match your old Soaps? Cut up the soap on a paper plate, pour your soap chunks with the shavings from the Paper Plate into a Mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, and microwave your soap. For about a minute or so? Place a paper plate under your mug in case it bubbles out of your cup? If it foams up, STOP. The water keeps it from burning itself up. (DON'T OVER WATER YOUR SOAP??) Easy, does it? Let cool don't want to Crack the Mugs or Cups you're using? (You just want it to Congeal in your Mug or Cup') it is very hot and watery'''''. let it cool in PLACE'. after it cools, put it in a Sunny Window, until the Soap hardens? When using your soaps, use Dry Brush Less Water. It thickens the soap, making it easier to use on your face. Save your Money, spend it on your wife, don't listen to the shave Mafia. It saves me time and Money. Wheelchair Larry Happy New Year. Your Mileage may vary?

Excellent soap, the SV Felce Aromatica. Got the version 4.3 here and couldn't be happier if I tried. That vintage Gillette razor sounds like a straight razor, really raw and very classic.

Real Yuma and knock-off , both look cheap. So , how to know which is which.

Love that Yuma.

Wish someone would do a video on how to fix the blade gap. Mine isn’t the same on both sides of the razor. A tune up costs $30 and I’m sure it’s fairly simple to do at home.

Can you use face moisturizer after you wash off the alum

Milder than the Marvel?

Yeap, a great shaving soap/cream

Wars is really good. Its smell is very very special. Its nice classic smell

Great shave Michael. I have owned all the Karve’s, presently or in past metals, and my favorite right now is the Bison on a 3.25’ Knopf handle. (I know this one in your video was 3.25 as it was originally mine.) The Bison is smoother, more nimble and as efficient as the CB or Overlander. Blade clamping is perfection. Chris is doing remarkable work. Really unbelievable.

This video is the most helpful "how to" for wet shaving...in my opinion. Go-to for help and objective, wet shaving & tool reviews. Perfect.

Well, as they say- all good things must come to an end. Thank you for all the laughs, inspiration and sacrifice towards entertaining us, with a hint of wit Michael. God bless, have a joyous Festive Season and a prosperous New Year. Warm regards from David (South Africa)

I got one of these razors sent from Indian. The base plate was not symmetrical and the guard stuck out about 1.5mm more on one side compared to the other. Not sure how much it would have affected the shave as I never used it. Quite disappointed. I also have a made in England 1970's Tech, and a Chinese Gillette. Both hold the blade well-aligned - though needless to say the 1970's Tech is the pick of the bunch.

my Simpson T3 Trafalgar is the best brush on the market today it's like buying a $200 badger hair brush, no cleaning the brush, no need for a brush stand, fast drying time, well not fall apart like a badger hair can, cheap to buy, i have owned it for 5 years with know problems wheelchair Larry

I am going to get to try the Lea shaving soap, soon. Thank you for the video.

Seems like a few gents prefer the CB to the overlander. I’ll have to think about it more. While I enjoy having plate options I also enjoy 1 and done razors….yet you have no adjustment short of a shim if you don’t.

Nice video Michael. Your review of the Karve stainless steel makes it a very attractive razor. Please advise; between a Karve SS, a rex Envoy and Edwin Jagger 3one6, which one would you recommend if one has to make one choice only from the three as a daily efficient and comfortable razor? Please advise.

Couldn’t agree more on the fact that it bugs me that these people will make razors and not take pride to stamp date codes! Rex Supply does a FANTASTIC job with this! Matt takes the Gillette date code process and it’s a sign that he is not just “milling metal” he actually cares about the history and has the vision. Others need to mimic this (Blackland for example, charging an arm and a leg for their brand new revolutionary in their mind Osprey… but can’t laser in a date🤷🏼‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️) just seriously grinds me🤣

I love my Karve Overlander aluminum. It's smooth, efficient, and maneuverable.

The closest shave I’ve seen you have. Great review
