I got the VDH brush and soap a couple of days ago and am very satisfied. Glad to hear they last so long!

Hey great vid, im new at wetshaving and im pruchasing my gear, for now ive got a beautifull muhle r89 safety razor, a sample pack of blades, and some mitchell's wool fat soap, so im moving forward to the next step: getting a shaving brush, i'd prefer fan shape brushes, and i love the shape and the size of your rooney, i wonder if you can tell me the exact model of your brush i really like it..thanks

VDH does sell a badger hair brush for $25 you have to call them and they will ship it to you

Nice video!

@dave997 Not really. The razor that you see first in this video is called a "safety Razor." The older style razors are called straight edge, and they are more dangerous. Safety razors aren't as dangerous by a long shot. You should still be careful, but don't worry about danger too much. Watch some videos about how to use them.

im a fan of wetshaving and your so right i cant believe i used gillette products the prices are ridiculous now i use a van der hagen soap and a boar brush right now my badger is on the way and im lookin for a good merkur razor
Sure it saves money, but that's not why I use this stuff. The older ways of shaving are just better. This is equipment that wasn't "engineered" by the marketing department.

Thanks, it was hard to present everything I wanted to in 10 minutes or less.

@Drmikekuna - Did you write out a cue card with a list of talking points in advance?
I shaved with my Merkur today. But the best way to shave is, of course, with a straight razor. Preferably a vintage one.

@johnnytastetest
I think about the topic and plan out what I want to say, but no cue cards.
