 Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of AmitDan.com. Today I'll have another episode of Double Edge Razor video and I'll review and unbox the Wilkinson Sword Classic Shave Razor Blade which I have it right here. If this is your first time or a repeat visit, thank you for your support. On this channel, I'm always trying new and different ideas. If you're into thinking outside the box, this is the channel to subscribe. If you're looking for more review videos, there will be links in the description box below. Before I start unboxing the Wilkinson Sword Double Edge Razor, I'd like to talk about the Wilkinson Sword Company. This is a very old British company, about 250 years old, which used to make guns and swords. That's where the name actually comes from. This company currently is owned by the H. Well Personal Care Company. This is the same company which makes age-shaving products and chic shaving products. There are also Bulldog Men's products, which also include some shaving products. Before being owned by Age-Well, Wilkinson Sword was owned by Pfizer and Energizer in the past. Currently, Age-Well is the owner. This is the same company which makes Gillette products. You can see that these are all related. Most of the men's items are made by Age-Well. Today, we have this classic stainless steel razor blade. I'm going to open this up and take a quick look at it, then I'll shape with this blade and provide you my opinion. This is the box you're looking at. They have two different variations. One is the butterfly opening and the other one is a two-piece opening. I believe I purchased the two-piece, but it could be that accidentally I clicked the butterfly without even knowing. I have a feeling that this could be the butterfly opening blade, but I'm not sure. After looking here, it doesn't mention anywhere, but when I was going through my order list, I found out that this could be the butterfly opening, but my purpose was to buy the other one, which was a two-piece. We'll see what we have inside. Here, they provided a five Wilkinson Sword blade and it mentions here the premium long metal handle. It looks like they have some more information on the back. It just tells you how to open the razor blade. Here, I'm just taking a close look and it could be that this is the two-piece. I'm not sure what it is, so let's just open it up and see what we have inside. Let me just try to open this. I ruined the packaging a little bit, which is okay. I'm just going to pull this here and the box is empty. I'll just set it aside here. This is what we have here. Here, we have the razor and here is the blade. I'll just set this aside. This is a long handle razor. You can see the knurling pattern here. It's nice to hold in hands. Here, we have three different bands. One of them is here and one of them in between. This is just to give me a good grip. I shave with right hand, so it feels okay holding on my right hand. Although I do some work with my left hand, but when I shave, I only use right hand. It looks like actually it would be a bit more slippery if you're holding with your left hand based on the pattern of the knurling. It feels like a much more better grip when you're holding with the right hand. Here, you have actually Wilkinson Sword logo right on top. That looks kind of very cute. I'm not sure if camera can catch it. I'm trying to make it show. The camera might not catch it properly due to the shiny reflections, but it looks very nice. I'm just going to see how this thing opens. There's a knob here and I'm opening it. Actually, this is the butterfly opening. That's the way it looks like. It just opens like this on top. This type of blade is the easiest way to open or simple way to open. It's the safest way to fill up the blade because you're not actually touching more pieces. You just grab the blade and put it in here. It looks like I didn't get the two pieces I was expecting to buy. This is just a butterfly, but I think this is going to be okay. I didn't have any Wilkinson Sword before. This is going to be my first time experience. It feels very good to hold in hand. I'm just going to look at the blades now. The blade box is a very nice plastic box. Let's see how you take it out. You have to slide it to the left and then it comes out. I'm not sure if they provided a chamber to deposit used blades. It looks like it might be here, but I'm not actually sure. I have to try to put used blade here later on. The box looks very good because it's a black color. In terms of the razor, this is a long handle and very nice and smooth to hold. This is 16 cm or 6.3 inches long and the weight is 118 g. This is not too heavy, not too light. It's kind of very balanced weight. I like it. It feels very good in hand. The next part of the video is going to be shaving with this blade. Then I'll give you more information on how it handles and whether this is an aggressive or mild razor. Let's go. Hello, Fion. I have my Wilkinson Sword Butterfly razor right here. The first thing I'm going to do is take out a blade from the blade box, which I have it right here. I'm just going to slide out the blade slowly. I'll just unwrap the blade and I'll just leave it here. Today, I'm using the Wilkinson Sword shaving soap bowl, which I have right here. I'm also using the Omega S brush, which is a synthetic fiber brush. I decided not to go with any animal product brushes. This is synthetic fiber. I'm just going to wet this and start making a foam. This should be good enough. I'm going to start applying shaving soap on my face. It looks like I need to wipe here a little bit. I'm applying soap again. I'll apply it here. I'll just leave it here. It looks like I have a little bit of water here. I'll just wipe it. I'm going to open the butterfly opening. This is the easiest way to load a blade when you have a butterfly razor. I'm just going to take the blade and pop it in here and close it very slowly. It looks like this should be okay. One thing I'm noticing is that the blade doesn't come out a lot on the sides, which is a good thing. Some of the razors are going to see that a significant part of the sides of the blade is coming out, which is not safe. This one looks just fine. I'm going to wash this a little bit or put it in water for a few seconds. I might need to reapply my foam again. Let's put this here. I'm going to start from my right side. We have Wilkinson Sword Double Edge Razor and then the same brand blade. It's gliding smoothly. I can tell right away that this is a mild razor and a mild blade. I don't like it too aggressive. I'll do the same on the other side. This is giving me a very smooth shape. I like it. I'm just going to wash this up. I'll start from here. It's so far so good. I need to wash up a little bit. It looks like my foam is drying. I'll reapply soap right here a little bit. It looks like I have a little bit of cuts here, which is not a big deal. What happens? I'm just going to apply a little pressure on the cuts right here. I'll just wet the brush a little bit again and take a little bit more soap. Then I'll do the second pass. As far as I can tell, this is a very smooth and mild razor. The blade looks like on the mild side as well, but they're not aggressive at all. That's the way I like. The weight in my hand feels very balanced. It's not too heavy, not too light. It looks like there's a perfect balance here when you're holding it. Right under the nose, this part, you have to be very careful. It looks like I'm just going to wash this again. I have a few more cuts, so I have to just apply a little bit of pressure. That should be good enough. My opinion on this is that if you're new into double-edged shaving, then this might work. This looks like it seems to be well balanced, although I had a few cuts and nicks. That could be due to my skin was a little dry because I noticed that even in the past, the shaving soap bowl from Wilkinson Sword was not too foamy enough to make it a smooth glide. I didn't blame the razor for that. Also, the blade is the Wilkinson Sword blade. If you have a slightly milder blade, then there wouldn't be any cut or anything. Overall, I'm happy with the product. Based on what you're paying and what you're getting, I don't think I can go wrong. This is about $22 Canadian, so definitely a good price. This is a butterfly opening Wilkinson Sword razor. Thank you for watching this video. There will be more videos coming up, so I'll see you shortly. Thank you.
