    Default What razor is this guy using?

    He obviously knows what he's doing. I would cut my nose and ears off if I shaved this fast and with the guillotine strokes!

    The razor says Domenica (Sunday in Italian) on the spine and is a 7 day set. Who makes these?

    I was gonna say that...
    I've see this video quite a few times, I've just really noticed he's using his RH to shave his left side and LH to shave right side (I do the opposite; R for right, L for left). I might try r for left. I've noticed the spike point on my razor is a bit 'dangerous' around the area just below my ear (on my neck) when I shave across the jawline there; using the opposite hand reverses the razor and means the heel (rounded) comes up against the skin under the ear. Worth a try, anyway!

    I noticed that when I watched the video last week. For me I thought how his view in mirror was better and using the dominant hand for stretching looked less like a circus contortionist. could not to it though, as hard as a tried just was not comfortable with angle of blade to my face, not angle of blade to skin but to my face. if that makes sense

    I don't see anything fast or dangerous about the way he is shaving. I've even see some shave even faster. Something for you to aspire to when you have more experience w/ straights.

    Not that fast for a long term straight user. All it takes to get this fluid with your shave is time. Best Regards and Happy Shaving, wildhog

    I swear he wouldn't have nostrils if he was using a spike point (after seeing the ATG pass). Great video though, it's always good to see some different techniques

    Not fast or dangerous for HIM! For me, it would be a blood bath....I'll post a video of my shave routine for some comic relief....

    I liked the video and the gentleman in it handles his razor with great finesse. As for me, well, I am still taking about 35 - 40 minutes to straight razor shaving. I use my dominant left hand for both sides and I'm a happy shaver.
