That razor looks menacing. I can picture two mean eyes on top of it I hope it came with a warning. Glad to see your skin was left intact afterwards.

Great video Kevy. That razor looks right up my alley. Thank you for what you do, and sharing your experiences with us.

the exposure on this head is crazy, basically a shavette on a stick

Kevy, I had to watch your last couple of videos with the subtitles on so as not to wake Mrs R up. It's hilarious commentary. It makes watching your videos even more fun! Ended up wakng her up anyway as I was giggling so much. Great shave

Thanks for taking one for the team :) I have the beast and it has a similar blade exposure. But I must say the razor is pretty solid, very well made no blade chatter like the stainless steel razor they have.

That is one scary looking razor, but you maneuvered it like a champ. Great shave Kevy!!

I ordered this head Kevy. WIll combine it with the black handle from Yaqi you had sent me. Cheers.

Great video, Kevy. I have to admit, I was a wee bit nervous for you. When you said it was 'an aggressive shave' I just knew we were in for a blood bath! Thinking back, can you even imagine your first shaves and using a razor like that?!?! You've come a long, long way. Thanks for taking us along with you, my friend. Have a great rest of your weekend!

Nicely done Kevy💈💈 I've personally never been fond of aggressive razors, gave mine to my two son's. It's all about the comfort now a days, if it takes another easy pass, so be it😊 I have a Razorock Wunderbar slant, looks scary but shaves exceptionally wonderful👌 Looks can be decieving, the PAA DOC SS is also scary looking but gives beautiful shaves as well. Great video of a close shave👍 Enjoy!

Great shave. Seeing the hair disappear immediately in one swipe was a sign that an aggressive razor can instantly slaughter the hair. I can eat some strawberries from the Strawberry Fields and eat them forever. Have a great day

Quite a thick, creamy-looking lather you produced there, Kevy. Interesting to see you shave with such visible blade-exposure, enough to strike a bit of fear in any wet-shaver's mind. Glad to see that you and your upper lip didn't part company on the 3rd pass. Also, as a 15-year-old, saw the Beatles live in concert in Chicago (the second show of their Chicago stop) on August 12, 1966. Your references to Beatles songs were caught immediately and appreciated. Always appreciate the playful sense of humor, too. Thanks, Kevy.

That audio feedback brings back a lot of bad memories! For me, that is the sound of destruction! It sounded to me like a lot of blade chatter and tugging! 🤭 But that’s only what I got from my end, only you know what it really sounded and felt like. That sound puts me on edge because when I was first starting out, I had many shaves that sounded just like this! But, it’s because I didn’t know any better! And I’m not saying that you don’t brother, not at all! I’m just speaking for myself! So, when I heard feedback like this & was done shaving, the end result was horrible razor burn, nicks & cuts, do to not knowing that in all reality, it wasn’t even that the shaver was aggressive, but that the razor blade/head combination was off, causing there to be way too much blade chatter from the positive blade exposure & or blade gap. All in all, you did really well for this being your 1st go at this razor! Bravo, It Was Well Executed Kevy! 👏🏼 😉

Brave Man your are Kevy. That looks like one aggressive razor. Thanks, but no thanks. I have two slants, a RazoRock German 37 and a Parker Semi-Slant. They are all that I can handle at this point. Have a great and safe weekend.

I own the original Beast. It is amazing with the Treet carbon blade. It is only out of sheer morbid curiosity that I'd like to try this new slant. I would use a shorter handle; which I do with slants. I want to know if this Yaqi is as aggressive as my Windrose true slant. Wickham's is always a wise choice. Darron's balms are certainly next level! Although some nicks were suffered, I think the end result was clean and close. I'd like to see how the Zorrik SP fares in this Yaqi one day. Well done, as always. The song improv was not bad, but should have been bluesy. Enjoy the remainder of the weekend, and pass my regards to Mrs. Kevy, and Riley.

There's aggressive, then there's uncomfortable. I found the Yaqi slant and the Yaqi beast to be very uncomfortable due to the extreme blade chatter! I love my Karve F plate so it's not that I don't like aggressive razors but this was just unpleasant for my skin. The Yaqi scalloped head and the double open comb are both very nice!

Hello Kevy, how is your summer? Have you gone somewhere for holidays? Anyway, I was wondering what is more smoother and more comfortable, the Yaqi beast or the Top aggressive?? Thanks

Try shimming the blade with 1-2 blades (trim 1-2mm off each side to remove the cutting edges) on top of the cutting blade to reduce the aggression of the razor. A few people on Badger and Blade have said that took it from intolerable to excellent.

Nice shave, man! I know some like aggressive razors because they canmaybe get it all in 2 passes instead of 3. But if a smooth razor gets it in 3 and so does an aggressive razor, like this one today, what's your preference? Stay with the comfort, or go for as close a shave as possible?

Yaqi only seems to be offering this razor head on their Alibaba page as the 'SRH030' or 'SRH031' (gun metal), but in mass quantities. It was available on AliExpress (with great reviews), but each now says 'Sorry, this item is no longer available!' I guess if anyone wants one they'll have to wait to see if they're revising it (more aggressive? less aggressive?) or just buy the Yaqi 'SRH013' 'Beast Hybrid' non-slant razor head. It doesn't look as aggressive as an iKon Tech, but hopefully they'll offer a super-aggressive razor head option, as not too many exist, unless you're prepared to spend money for aggressive designs.

Hi Kevy! Love the videos, still not entirely sure why I keep spending so much time watching a man shave for 30 minutes. Anyway, although I'm not a particularly experienced double edge shaver, I always think that you're over shaving. Surely a razor as aggressive as this can get the job done in two passes? Going to a third pass just seems a bit pointless and risks further nicks. I'm sure you know your face better than I though!
