You’re so good to throw in the tip about full arm movements, not just flicking the razor with your wrist. When I started wet shaving I kept nicking my neck, for that reason. With a cartridge (especially one that flexes to keep the angle right) I would almost carelessly shave. With a DE I was being good about the angle, but my strokes were more similar to the cartridge style. Once I used a full arm movement my shaves got more comfortable and rarely nicked myself anymore.

Thanks for pointing that out. Glad I could help. Thanks for all your support.

Iam 45 years old and all these years Iam using Gillette's disposable razors. I got fed up with those lately. Bad quality, harming the environment, not enough sharp and irritating my face a lot. I watched some of your videos about double edged razors and I ended up to purchase as a beginner a Henson a13 mild. When I will receive it and test it I will write my comment about that. Thank you for your good job and your passion about the wet shaving. Greetings from Greece.

Another great shave, man. One little "golden key" (if you will) to shaving that I've kept since I've discovered it has been something that's not even related to product. And that is water: cold water to be precise. Matt from Razor Emporium mentioned this a few times on some of his videos related to shaving with sensitive skin, and he tells a lot of his customers who might be getting a ton of irritation or other issues to do a cold water shave with EVERYTHING cold: wetting the brush, lathering the soap, wetting your face, cleaning the razor off between your cuts...everything. The only time you'd probably use hot water is to clean your brush, razor, & razor blade off at the end once you're done. At first I was kind of skeptical, but I tried just shaving with cold water at first (with warm brush & warm lather)...and it was pretty awesome and my results improved. Then I switched to wetting brushes and lathering with cold water...and it has been nirvana ever since (well, mostly). Not every shave is the best, naturally, but my level of irritation has dramatically reduced between shaves and I CANNOT go back to hot shaves now; they irritate me so much. So maybe try a cold shave with everything cold for a few weeks and see how you feel! 😁

That fortnight experiment of cold water everything with only one pass every two days (from Matt at Razor Emporium) was what I mentioned to you in my comment on the phone-in video. So far, so good, but there are still two or three shaves to go. I may still go back to your second pass against the grain on the lower neck technique if all-cold is inferior. The main variable so far seems to be how often one shaves. BBS is an ideal, and most men can't do it without major irritation of some sort. I believe that a DFS is the realistic goal for most of us. The era of cartridge razors has made too many of us lazy, and your point about as few strokes as possible is well-stated. I will ask skeptics of DE shaving about their making five passes with one stroke of their Mach V; they have no answer. 🤔

Great shave! Glad you got outta there nice and clean with with no nicks. The Henson is such a great razor with its angle feedback. Not only do you see soap trails when the angle is off but it also goes silent. Both visual and audio cues with that thing. Can't go wrong. Congrats to the giveaway winner!

This Christmas I replaced my Merkur 34C. I had heard of the Henson and that is what made me find you. I was looking up reviews and ended up getting the AL13 mild, a Leaf Twig and a Rockwell 6C (can't pass up the Christmas sale price). So far one of my problems is the Henson is almost perfect. I keep wanting to shave with it. I am planning to force (yes force) myself to use the Twig during Feb and probably use the Rockwell during March. Also thanks for the blade reviews. I stuck with the Astra greens for a year and just started picking up some other blades and honestly they make an unbelievable difference. The tugging I get from an Astra in the old Merkur 34C kept making me thing the blade was dulling after one use. For some odd reason the Astras give me a tugging pulling sensation. I guess we all have blades that work or don't. Anyway checked out the Feathers, Nacets and Personna Comforts and all are giving an easy 5 shaves per blade. I am automatically cycling out a blade after 5 shaves but could probably get more. Thanks again for your videos. They are informative and you have a way that makes me feel like you are trying to sell anything while also not just watching someone shave. There is always some gem in the conversation that keeps me hooked. Don't change your format cause it works like no other.

I liked your 'Squeeze The Knot' move. I'm stealing that. 😇 I have similar issues getting a good shave. Lucky for me it was easy to troubleshoot. You see, I was trying different blades on a daily basis in one of my open comb Gillette's. Seems to be a little too aggressive for me and combined with the blade changes it started to get bad around day 5. Like you, I decided to go back to basics. Took four days off from shaving to let my face recover a bit and then, switched to my Gillette Fatboy 'goto' razor and my standard blade and all is back to being right in the universe. I also found out that my face does not like warm water when shaving. Nothing but cold water for this guy. Great video. May your shaves be A-mazing!!!!

I don't make dedicated video for winners. I think that's stupid. I put them in my full lenth video's. If someone doesn't watch all my videos, then they're probably gonna miss out on winning. That's the whole point of giving a razor away for me is to get people to come back and keep watching all of my videos. Wouldn't you agree?@@unknownsecret8227

A Few days ago I finally received my Gillette slim adjustable from Razor Emporium. The Most amazing razor I have used so far.

Want to try using a safety razor but the henson is so expensive. Not sure if I am willing to drop so much money on something I have never used.

I guess you gotta figure out how much you're spending right now on razors, and see if it makes sense for you. Over the course of one year I was spending at least that much but for me it was more. I had sensitive skin and disposable razors, gave me constant razor, burn and razor bumps using a safety razor has rectified the condition of my skin

No, you won’t. I’ve had so many stitches put in my chin as a kid that I actually cover it up with facial hair.

You do head shave videos?

I have the Henson Medium V1. Is it worth upgrading to V2?

Not sure I have only used version two

I did upgrade my Henson mild but not my medium version. I don’t think the bevelled corners and longer drainage ports are worth the extra cost. Why not use the money to try (if you don’t have it already) the Rockwell 6C or the Leaf Twig, both of which are cheaper than a new Henson.

The knurled parts help with grip - earlier Henson (I have one) I dropped and grabbed on the wrong side and cut my hand

You should not put aluminum in ultrasonic cleaners. Pitting can take place on aluminum depending on frequency of the waves. Do not use aluminum in a cleaner below 78khz

I guess the blade experiments haven't worked out well. I've found the blade is the most important factor in shaving. Pairing it with a razor is the second step.

Gillette king c double edge razor ten pounds add Wilkinson sword soap in UK from home bargains 99 pence and 300 razor of your chosen brand. Be about 20 pound for 300 blades so 31 pounds to never worry again just what soap , scuttle, stropper ...... What I'm saying is be wise don't waste money on expensive tack no need

The RK blades that comes with it is the worst. Bought it with 100 extra blades and now I have 103 useless blades. Tried feathers and astra and they are so much better than RK
