Vintage Gillette Open-comb, Derby Shave Stick, WCS Deranged Brush & Pinaud Clubman

That vintage Gillette is an absolute beauty. Really great video, Ken! Also, Pinaud is always an excellent classic barbershop scent. Lastly, my Sox are up two and I'm looking forward to the game tomorrow night! Dodgers are a very good team at home and Buehler has been pretty damn good!

Ken, like Arko, Derby is from Turkey. "Berber tiras sabunu" means "barber shaving soap.'

[@tonymazz9912]

Just bought a used OC Gillette off ebay and it's one of my favorites along with the Gem OC. I always was afraid of skinning myself but the trick is to go slow with no pressure. It takes down my course stubble in one pass vs the CC razors that took three passes and "Buffering" ,causing minor skin irritation. Thanks for another great video.

[@ricjefferson1493]

Great shave, Ken. Subscribers keep going up and I'm glad. More people need to watch. Great information and stories and honest reviews. Keep it up!

[@kensurfs]

RHINO405 Thank you very much👍💈

[@sbcwinn]

Ken, I must admit that your videos are really amazing, and I watch a ton of them. I was just trying to think what it is that makes you so special to your ever growing audience. You are so relate-able. I honestly feel part of the family. People truly get a feeling of who you are. Don't get me wrong, the shave part is pretty good too.. Thanks for doing what you do, Sheldon P.S. - I could have never used that razor with that blade without at least 2 alum sticks by my side.

[@kensurfs]

Sheldon Cwinn In getting a little bit more comfortable with the Feathers but the Wilkinson Sword Gillettes are still top of my list. Thanks Sheldon. Is the Winter weather hitting you up there yet?

[@sbcwinn]

Not yet. But, they say we're going to have a terrible winter.

[@luisvigil5365]

Mr. Kensurfs, What a beautiful brush you used in this video. 👍🏼

[@mrazulak9832]

Great shave as usual, Ken. I have a closed comb gold tech. Got it from an antique store. Which is another great place to find vintage razors. Of course that means doing your own cleaning and polishing.

[@kensurfs]

adam kaluza 👍👍💈

[@timomick912]

Ken, I believe that razor is a Gillette NEW with a ball end handle which was introduced in 1929 and made until 1940/41. I have both the long and short open comb version of that model with bar handles and they are excellent shavers. Have a good week!

[@kensurfs]

Tim Omick Thanks Tim, I think you are 100% correct👍💈

[@patdurbin1961]

Yes. I agree. And, in that case, it's called a pocket edition.

[@sleve_mcdichael_]

Derby is one of my favorite soaps. It has such a clean smell. If you're looking for some new stuff go over to shave nation. They have the quickest shipping times I've come across.

[@mikeh9701]

Hi Ken- Very nice shave with a vintage Gillette open-comb razor, with a Feather blade. Well done, my friend. I did notice that the Peach was gone from the witch hazel section of the sight. They do have a new scent- Coconut Water, which I have and think you might like. It is quite mild but leaves no doubt that there is a nice scent of coconut. Definitely worth a try, I believe! Well, take care and all the best!

[@kensurfs]

Mike H 👍👍

[@alanlighting]

If you take your clubman pinaud and put it into a glass bottle and leave it for about 4 weeks it totally makes it a better smelling aftershave. Works great on all their scents and good way of reusing your old aftershave bottles.

[@koosk41]

Nice variety of stuff going on there and a really good demonstration of how easy it is to lather a shave stick. Before you said it, the facial expression said "Feather blade" 👍😁

Ken, nice shave! Congrats on the “no weepers” lol. Your razor is the Gillette New...long comb if I’m not mistaken. I had one just like it...passed it down to my son and he loves it. I do love the open combs...my “daily driver” at the moment is a 1936-37 Sheraton...a beautiful razor and such a pleasure to use. Keep the vids going and thanks for letting us join you. Kerry.

[@knightmare1015]

Outstanding shave and video Ken. I too have Feathers on deck to use in the Leaf razor. I was told that the razor really tamed them down to a very nice comfortable shave and yes the sweet spot for Feathers is the 2nd and 3rd shaves. Any more after that would depend on which razor I'm using. It's Wet The Face (WTF) Wednesday tomorrow and I will have about 4 days to mow off with the Leaf.

[@kensurfs]

Stephen Davidson 👍👍👍👍

[@dartmouthshaving1442]

Great shave Ken, Derby stick is a a really good soap, cheap, super easy to lather and decent performance. I just find it a little drying on the post shave but balm fixes the problem. As for the feathers, I wish I could used them but my acne scaring prevent me to use them.

[@kensurfs]

Dartmouth Shaving Don’t even try them...too too sharp👍👍💈

[@dartmouthshaving1442]

@@kensurfs it was too late when I discovered that... my cheeks were no problem. But when I went for the chin, from under the lip to under the chin, right in the middle, I ended up with a nice 1 inch bleeding strip. Took me a good week before I could shave the new skin there...

Every photo of Tom Selleck as Magnum PI I've seen shows his mustache even with the mouth, no drop in the corners. Is this correct Ken? Got to be exact if you're gonna be Magnum..😉 Nice shave with the OC vintage Gillette. Yeah, I'd say it's from the 20's/30's. Heard the short combs are more aggressive than the long combs..!? I've used Derby, Palmolive and Arko stick soaps, amazing how much lather they can make just by swiping across the face. Another great video Ken. Enjoy!

[@kensurfs]

I was just criticizing the Derby shave stick on my instagram, but maybe I need to give it a second try like you did here in the video. I swore I had tried to use it in every typical way but I couldn’t get it to lather up. Though I did love the scent. Thank Ken for the great vid!

She Shaves with Jill Thanks Jill. Did you go to Disney world yet?

[@sheshaveswithjill4838]

We did Disney Magic Kingdom yesterday, yes. I got sun poisoning because some meds I take make me photosensitive to the sun, and niece couldn't find the sunscreens in her backpack (which we found out were there all along when we unpacked when we returned home). My body needs an overhaul...back, neck and legs were killing me. But I persevered and had a blast. Did the rides we wanted to the most...Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Jungle Cruise, Pirates of the Carribean, Thunder Mountain Railroad (and others). Then caught the late night Happily Ever After Fireworks Show...it was great. Got there at 10 a.m. and stayed to closing. Then Celebrating my Birthday on the 25'th then we do Disney Animal Kingdom on the 29'th.

I know three years ago they got behind from all the razors that were sent into them and then sold on eBay for many times the price Razor Emporium charged.
