Thread: Interesting youtube shaving video

This guy shaves with his knife right off a king 6k grit stone.

That's actually really cool.

It even looks like he got a decent shave out of it.

BRAVO!! Well done! Great piece of music too, anybody know the name of the piece?

Very interesting video. I certainly would never employ anywhere near the pressure he did,
and if anyone is experiencing tugging like the earlier part of the video showed, then your
razor isn't sharp enough

I don't think any razor would cut without the tugging with that kind of beard prep.. He's almost shaving dry.

I'm pretty sure it is J.S. Bach, Brandenburg Concerto No.1.

I've been wrong before though....

Cool video in any respect IMO. Thanks for posting that. I could see shaving off a 6K stone (not comfortably or close for my face). I've shaved completely off an 8K and I know quite a few others have/do. I put headphones on to listen to this video and what I heard, he sounded pretty scratchy on his cheeks even after his final passes. To me it sounded like my whiskers after just WTG on my cheeks with a dull razor. Unlike this guy though, with the same dull razor experiences I describe, my chin if I kept going would be hurting and would look irritated.

I must love all things sharp. Great video.

Dude controlles a blade!

A ROOFING knife!!!
Man that guy must have one tough face.
Cool video tho'. I think I'll just stick to my straights and leave the knife for cutting other things
