Deluxe Vintage Wet Shave Grooming Set for Men - Safety Razor, Brush, Alum Block, Soap, Bowl, Blades, Stand & Dopp Kit

This is an Excellent Starter Kit for wet shaving. Everything they provide you get is a pretty good value for the price of the kit.The toiletry bag does have a fair amount of room inside of it so if you need a new one or want a separate bag for your shaving items/facial cleansers this will def fit the bill. The quality and feel of the bag is also rather nice and it should last for quite some time.The blades are very nice. I did move on to a different set of blades from Feather Razor Blades. To me at least they just shave better.The safety razer is very nice for a traveling kit/2nd to your main and or using to learn (as I did). The grip is nice and it's easy to control on your face when you shave. I did move on to one from Manscape that was heaver as I like the extra weight on the safety razer for handling and it helps make a cleaner shave.The brush is good. After every use I always see a few hairs that have come out but it still have tons of hairs on the brush and great. I'll eventually upgrade to something else but till then the one from this kit will last quite a while.The stand that the brush and razer sit on works just fine. No issues and it's got a big enough base where it won't fall over.The soap's fragrance to me is "meh". I don't love it but I don't hate it and the smell doesn't last that long which is nice. The soap does froth up quite well and lasts a long time in the bowel while your shaving so your not constantly putting water into the bowel and using up more soap.The bowl is rather small. You put the soap puck in there and as your lathering it up it quickly fills the bowl and it will spill everywhere. It's not large enough to create a good amount of suds without making a mess. I had to go an buy a larger one that was big enough so I didn't have to constantly clean up the bathroom counter with each shave. However it's small enough where it's great for traveling so I can live with the mess in the hotels for 1-2 nights vs dealing with it every single day.The aluminum salt block is rather nice. It takes a bit getting used to when you need to rub it over some cuts or irritated skin (it does sting but it doesn't' last long nor is it painful). However I can notice the difference when I need to use it so I'll def keep buying them. This small block will last for a long time.I gave this a 5/5 just cause of the sheer value of what you get and the overall quality is pretty good. The bowl was the biggest issue for me in this kit but not enough to knock it down to 4 starts. If I could I'd give it a 4.5/5 as I did have to spend extra money on a larger bowl.I Would def recommend this to someone who wants to learn how to wet shave and start with this set or if they just want a travel set this would also fit the bill quite nicely.

Bought this for my husband and he loved it so much

Was exactly what I was expecting, the hubby is pretty impressed

Two minor complaints, the lather cup is kinda small(not that it has to be big) and the gap between the blade and the edge is pretty wide and had a bit of a learning curve to use without getting nicks. My last safety razor had a smaller gap and it was easier at first to use. However now that I’m used to it it hardly matters and it shaves good and close

This was given to my son today as a gift. He’s already got it set up on his vanity to use. It’s a very nice quality gift.

I have always been a cartridge shaving guy and I have always had to deal with ingrown hairs. After finally having enough I started researching it and came across wet shaving. After researching it extensively I was sold. I found this kit and figured it was a good place to start. 1. Because it had good reviews2. It had everything I needed to start3. My name is John and figured it was a sign!! LolPackageing was great it all came individually boxed placed neatly in the traveling case. I was super stoked to try it out. There is definitely a learning curve to using it so watch several videos before starting as I did....or you might cut yourself or not get a good shave.The soap smelled great and was easy to lather. It fit nicely into the bowl. I would say the bowl is a little small and can make lathering it a little messy but great for a starter. I will probably get a bigger bowl in the future but good for now. The razor itself is great. Seems very well built and sturdy. Fits nicely into my hands. It does have the shorter handle so if you do have big hands it could be awkward to hold. It has a nice head with a good amount of weight to it. For the shaving part it was great. I got the smoothies shave I have ever had. Even my wife was like “wow”! It literally feels like a baby’s bottom. It’s my first shave so I will feedback in about a week or two about my ingrown hairs and if it’s solved the problem. The blades it came with did a great job. I might try different kinds just to see what’s out there but I am satisfied with what came. What was in the package was Astra superior platinum.The aftershave block it came with was different because I am used to balms but so far it has worked great and I have no irritation!!The bag seems to be pretty well made. The only thing I don’t like about it is it’s just an open bag and no pockets for the soap and bowl or for the razor...just a personal quirk of mine. The stand is very sturdy and has a pad on the bottom to keep it from moving around.I would highly recommend this shave kit and would give it 10 stars if I could!!

It arrived on time, and as described. My husband loves his new shaving set! He’s already looking at making another purchase from this seller.
