[@larrypowers4857]

We are missing you big time brother....hope everything is good with you and the family:)

[@wadeschreffler2161]

Missing your videos. Hoping everything is good with you and your family. Wondering if the Vector is still your favorite head shaving razor? I could use some tips getting a close shave with it in only one pass.

[@victorvek5227]

It’s been a minute Ruds. I hope you’re well. Does anyone know what’s happened to him??

[@Fernando-fr5cu]

We miss you!

[@BB-le7yu]

Miss the vids, Ruds. Hope all is well.

[@peterkaufmann8579]

Hope all is well with you and yours. Miss you Bro. Have you stopped making vids?

[@ThaRedPitbull]

I hope you come back soon and review the new razors like the Muramasa and Vector Ti.

[@matt_hoaglund]

Hey Ruds! I know you’ve been busy lately, you’re my go to no nonsense solid and quick reviewer on KZbin. I appreciate the quick no bs in your style. However I think, when you get the time, a Mrs Ruds approved top list. Both date night and casual. I think there’s a good couple thousand of us that would like to hear her lists!! Thanks! Keep it up and looking forward to seeing you soon!!

[@Juraberg]

Hi Ruds. Great review of a soap and scent I would definitely enjoy myself. I am eagerly waiting for your next video. Regards, Patrick

[@SynthVGguitarist]

You must comeback...

[@jamestufo9515]

Haven’t seen you in some time. Love your videos very insightful. Hope all is well.

[@julioserrano3672]

Which razor that you use gives you the closest shave or BBS. Your best opinion. I will aprecciate it. Godbless you always and your family

[@vdlorenzo2578]

Hi mate hope your well, just wondering if you have a mozingo ZT1 brush as I'm looking to buy one, if you have one and are interested in seeing it please let me know happy to pay a good price for it

[@T-R.e.x]

What has really happened to Ruds??

[@eddyjimenez-scorpio]

Ruds, havent heard from you in a while. I pray everything is good with you an ur family.

[@peterkaufmann8579]

Miss you Bro! Coming back any time soon?

[@mikeh9701]

Hi Ruds- Great head shave and soap review; thank you! The scent profile on the soap sounds very nice. I hope you have a great week ahead. Take good care and be safe and be well. All the best, Ruds!

[@dendj55]

Thank you kindly

[@chakshyut]

hi, which razors gives u smooth shaves against the grain in upper lips ?

[@blade4vor905]

Nice dome shave and review, Ruds! I always enjoy your straightforward, honest impressions. The artwork on the the label of this one is great! Thanks, again! Cheers! -Rob

[@dendj55]

Thank you as always Rob.

[@Sledhead]

I just picked up this set today, they are celebrating 3 years in business with a 33% off coupon so I had to take advantage

[@travelinlight1141]

Hey Ruds great review. I see you like the Vector SE for head shaves. In your experience do Artist Club SE blades last longer than DEs and if they do does outweigh the additional cost?

[@dendj55]

Great question! Yes, for me, I get 20-25 shaves per artist club blade on my dome. Whereas, with a DE it is 2 and done. I believe this offsets the cost.

[@heathen184]

Is Ruds ok? Any update on him?

[@nelsonduarte2355]

It's over

[@T-R.e.x]

@@nelsonduarte2355 Why?

[@chrischandler4332]

following this comment, want to know what's happened to Ruds and if he is o.k

[@T-R.e.x]

@@chrischandler4332 I don't really know, someone can explain what happened to Ruds?

[@paulbenson1610]

You ok?

[@NoBSBeardReviews]

Great stuff man. Another one, I'd like to check out.

[@dendj55]

Thank you for the support.

[@T-R.e.x]

The slickness could reach the old base of A&E Ruds?

[@dendj55]

I would say the residual slickness is on par with the 2019 A&E soap base.

[@ChrisGarciaorlzzt]

Nice shave Ruds... Sounds like an interesting scent profile. Is it a cologne vibe? Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!

[@dendj55]

Yes, a very refined vibe, like most colognes. It is well blended.

[@wackyp]

This guy is way too cool.

[@pathayesiii9046]

Hello Ruds! I like the way you narrate your videos and I look forward to trying this soap. I dont own any scents by this brand yet. I am a fan of Creed Tabarome and it would be nice if this soap does in fact match up at all. Best wishes!

[@dendj55]

Thanks for your support and for the thoughtful comments. Hopefully this scent is right up your ally. Cheers.

[@Samuel-ge7im]

Great shave Ruds

[@dendj55]

Thanks Sam!

[@nate4shave]

Great review Rud interesting soap

[@dendj55]

Thank you !

[@victorvek5227]

Rud really just gave up huh?

[@thedudeofshaving1749]

Have you ever done a den tour?

[@dendj55]

I have not. The den is very underwhelming to be honest. I do not keep much.

[@gentbehindascent]

Hey ruds

[@dendj55]

Cheers!

I still can't believe it... Goodbye Ruds...

[@mikek5631]

@@chrischandler4332 Nobody seems to know. There is a thread on BadgerandBlade but it's just another speculation thread. Normally I'd say he just walked away but with the past year we've had I hope he's healthy. Miss his videos. I appreciated his calm demeanor.

[@jacobsladder6715]

I wonder how that soap company is doing... they do not have the soaps they use to have and they are down to next to none at the moment 7 and sold out of this one.

[@dendj55]

Thanks for your support.

[@scottbruce8951]

I don't head shave (yet) but I enjoy watching your videos. My time will come sooner than I want to admit. Thanks Rud! I am a noob in creating videos and would respect your comments if you care to view at BrownBag Gentleman.

[@dendj55]

Thanks for your support. I will be happy to check out the channel! Wishing you much success with it.

[@ryanjunior7408]

Hey Ruds when you grow a beard again can you shave your beard into a handlebar mustache

[@dendj55]

I probably could.

[@dendj55]

The beard is gone so there is no opportunity this year.

HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs" I Do any Shave Pucks or hard Soaps are going to work? You can mix and match old Soaps? to fit in any Mugs or Cups that you like to use. Like (Mitchells' Wool Fat or Arko Shave Soaps just to name a few of the ones you could use?) Cut the bar soap up, put in a mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, microwave for a minute or so? 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') place in the Sun, until Soap hardens? When using Dry Brush Less Water. For its (Price Point?)' (I use Dove Bar Soaps?) (Use any Soaps Out there ??) Save your Money, Spend it on your wife, Don't listen to the shave Mafia. I have been doing this for the last 20 years it saves me time and Money in these Inflationary Times Wheelchair Larry Merry Christmas
