When I watched your son shave I couldn’t believe he would have a go without any lather. I’ve actually never seen anyone shave without lathering up. He’s a braver man than me. Lucky he can get away with it. Anyway thanks for sharing. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

    Hi Mr. Ken Surfs, I am a subscriber to the dollar shave club and have used cartridge razors most of my adult life. One little trick I learned to clean out cartridge razors is to take an old toothbrush and use the bristles of the toothbrush to get in between the blades and remove any hair that might get stuck in there. Works every time, though it may take a minute or two to clean out all the hairs, best done under running water or between dips in the sink I'm glad that you're not one of those guys who are bashing cartridge razors, to me, that's just ridiculous. Both are shaving tools and if one way works the best for you, that's great, keep doing what works for you, no need to bash the one that might not work for you. Anyways, great video and I think you should look into trying Dr. Carver's 'Pillowy' Shave Lather from the dollar shave club. 9 bucks for a 6 oz tube so it's not too pricey and it lathers really well, it's mentholated so it has a nice cooling sensation and it really is kinda pillowy and offers good protection during the shave. Cheers! 🍻🍻

    I’ve been a member of Dollar Shave Club for about 5 years now. Best decision I’ve ever made. In my opinion, they are just as good as any of the more expensive razors and last just as long. And you can’t beat the price. Definitely worth checking out.

    I don't use cartridge razors anymore because my beard is heavy. Before I discovered DE razors, I had a dedicated toothbrush to clear the clogs of the plastic cartridge razors. I get far better shaves from my DE razors. Now, I use a sink with water, and swish my DE razor in it. It tends to clear out any residual whiskers and soap build up. That being said, use what works for you. If you prefer cartridge razors, then go for it. It's all about a great shave. No judgements here. Aside from the pounding, it was nice to see your son sharing a video with you. ;) Thanks for sharing the video, Ken!

    I was a DSC member for nearly 3 years. The mid-tier, 4 blade model was my huckleberry. Never really disliked it, but decided to try a DE in August of ‘19. The men in my family were all electric (Norelco and Remington) for all my memory, so my use of blades at all was a departure from the beginning. I like the DE’s. Like the community and culture around this hobby. Find myself leaning towards the sharper end of the spectrum (Bic, Feather, Gillette Silver Blue, etc). Thank you for your efforts on this channel.

    I’ve been using that exact same dsc razor and cartridge for years. Handle broke and ordered a new one and somehow started getting double the amount of blades every month (I’m sure I was paying double). After having enough cartridges for probably a year I cancelled. I then had a set that felt like crap and cut me. Tried 2 or 3 out of that sleeve and same thing. So must have had a bad batch. Then had another that was smooth but missed a bunch of hairs. As my build up dwindled and was not happy I got into the KZread rabbit hole of watching de safety razor videos. Wife got me a R89 grande and sample pack of blades for Christmas and am loving it. Love the feel of lathering on my face with a brush. Taking notes on blades to determine which is best for me. I might revisit the first couple blades I tried after I get the hang of it to see if better technique improves the shave. Oh and by the way no matter the razor you can cut yourself badly if your not careful. In my wedding photos you can see a scar from cutting myself trying to get baby smooth that day with whatever was the Gillette cartridge popular at the time.

    I have been signed up with DSC since they first came out. I’ve always had the tier level that provides me with that exact razor you’re using. Now, I’m going to let everyone in on a life hack. Subscribe to the service (if you want), they send you so many blades that after a while you can cancel the subscription and live off the blades they’ve sent you for quite some time. I shave my head and my face everyday and I have a dense heavy full beard. I’ve been unsubscribed for years and still have blades stacked up…. With all that said, I’ve switched to de safety razor shaving. But I still use my DSC razor on my head

    great job Mike love the confidence do a little home work, talk to your dad he can give you good info. I have a 27 year son who started using a safety razor this year. He came and watched me shave, I gave him the finer points and tips to have a good shave and he loves it now. Just some encouragement. banging the razor made me cringe pulled back from the computer. I kept thinking don't break. Have a great day. :)

    This is absurd to me that I'm watching a video of a guy shaving ,no offense, it just so happens it was the episode with your son's story. Ouch, I can sympathize. What really captured my attention was how sincere you are sharing your experiences. I can appreciate the effort you gave, to have your son cameo with the follow up. He is fearless, no shave cream; couldn't help cringing with each pass, especially at the speed he handled it with. I used to "shave" with my grandfather when I was 1 or 2, the memories made me search for the safety razors again. So it was nice to see you sharing that with your son. Price also played a role in the selection, recently my van der haggen broke, had it for a few years after that quickly realized it is not made as perceived. So sought out a budget friendly replacement, came across a quick set on amazon, the anbbas 3 piece with compact stand distinct handle for under $20. I scored a bunch of blades over the years catching sales , so not to loose out on my resources. I got that kit seemed a good match for the value, has some character as well. I'll share my first experience quickly, someone one you tube suggested taking the bur edge of a new razor; so what do I do take a straup to it. Pre oiled my face not something I do normally then Lathered the first pass sucked, "this must be a mistake" lots of passes later I stop. Thinking to myself this razor actually has good reviews, let me change blades just in case, if not I'm throwing it out or getting money back. First pass after blade change, now that's more like it. Is was me "de burring " jacked my skin to shreds. It was worlds better after the blade change, and still think it was worth the purchase, seems it was made well. Thank you for posting honestly

    Great to see your son! I had the hardest time watching the R41 travel without much lubrication over his face that is a sharp blade and an aggressive razor. I cringed because I can not imagine nearly dry shaving with a feather blade. That said he did a good nearly dry shave with a feather blade. He has a good sense of rhythm using the R41 to keep the beat. The only razor I would ever dry shave with is a trac 2. More power to your son for getting back and using the R41 again!! Great shave Ken!

But I had the good fortune of watching your dad shave with it and I had learnt to respect it and go carefully with it. Hope you have the pleasure of using a good badger brush and good quality shaving soap or cream and feeling like a million dollars afterwards that's one thing that makes my day. Wish you both all the best from Scotland. Yours Sincerely Gordon Christie

    The DSC uses the Dorco Pace system of Handles and Blades. The nice thing is that they're cheaper on Amazon for those who want to save more. Also, they come in 2,3, 4,5 and 6 blade cartridges which are interchangeable with the handles. So maybe you buy the 6 blade and decide you only need the 3 blade cartridge, then get that refill because it fits. Pretty good cartridge system, I've used it for travel. So if you don't wanna join DSC Ken, just look up Dorco Pace on Amazon!

    Gerard, It seems that since DSC was acquired and sued by P&G for patent infringement on the Dorco Pace blade finishing process; DSC has redesigned their cartridges, and phased out the Dorco Pace products, at least for new accounts. Also, Dorco has terminated direct sales in the USA. You can purchase their Pace System products on Amazon. I haven't uncovered which specific patents were involved in that lawsuit; but it was settled out of court; something about the finishing process on the blades (carbon, chrome, and PTFE). As if coatings on razor blades could be patented. It sounds crazy to me. The new DSC cartridges are low profile; and look superior for getting up under the nose. I have no idea how the blades compare. Dorco cartridges are generally regarded as middling in terms of sharpness, and smoothish, but not remarkable in any sense; and neither in the same league nor the same price category as the best Gillette cartridge systems.

    Hello Ken, Interesting video! I had heard you cut yourself with those Bic Chrome Platinum blades, so I deliberately went back to reuse my one and only box of Bics. It was a 2nd used blade and I used it in my DE89 and then a 3rd use in a Gillette twist2Open - Knack (1974). I have to say my results were very good, with a rating of 8/10 for both razor/blade combo. I don't need to mention how surprised I was when your son knocked the razor on the sink, every one else has already made a comment. See you in the next video.....

    Hi Ken... dollar shave club uses the Pace razors made in Korea. You can also pick them up from Amazon. The replacement blades cost two or 3 dollars. Cheaper than a Fusion but still much higher than using a DE razor. Also... if your son isn't comfortable with an R41, give him a Merkur 34c.
