Great shave. Weird looking soap, but I like Stirling products. I have the original Mamba (.53 mm) and the Game Changer (.68 mm), they are both in my regular rotation, but I do prefer my Game Changer a little more then my Mamba. For me, the Game Changer is just a tad more efficient. I use sharper blades in my Mamba and get great shaves. Have a great and safe week!
Just came across this video because I was curious about the Mamba. Nice review. And I know what you mean about Haverford smelling sour. When I first got it, off the puck it just smelled almost like straight cedar oil, which is kinda sour and not a great smell. If you've dealt with moths you probably know what I mean! But man it smells great lathered up. Another soap I wasn't sure about off the puck was Eigengrau which just came out. But I really like it lathered up.
Great shave and great razors, both. As a daily driver, The Mamba is, for me, smoother and easier than the Game Changer. If I need a very close shave, I take my smooth Schich G 66 and I'm done. But I don't need or search a daily BBS, so the Mamba is my number one among a lot of other razors, never irritation, nick or cut with the Mamba.
Was the titanium handle slippery or was it to long, you said you didn’t like that handle and was wondering why? Thanks I’m looking at buying the mamba and like the light weight of titanium handle but wonder how that handle performs
What's the mildest razor you've used? I have fairly sensitive and I'm using the black plastic wilkinson classic safety razor but it clogs way too easily and I'd like something a bit better
@@ciarancdc I started using a more aggressive razor and only do one pass on the sensitive areas and get zero irritation now. Sometimes more aggressiveness and less buffing is the answer.
Probably many adjustable razors can be dialed down to extreme mildness. I never tried dialing my gillette slim adjustable below 3. Below that, l have doubts it would cut much of anything.

I have both and the game changer rules, big difference to me.

Love mamba70
Great shave brother and I have some I don’t like the smell of I guess I need to try them anyway lol
Nice comparison ~! Kit
I watched a few of your videos awhile ago and have heard of your brushes. Glad to put a name to the face!
💈😁👌💈
Glad you are enjoying the Game Changer. I’m enjoying the Marvel. I LOVE the handle on the Marvel.
I'm still tempted to get the Marvel.
No comparison...Game Changer is awesome. Did I miss you saying which plate you used?
I can't remember. It's the .84 I believe
@@CravingShaving a better match for the Mamba .70 would have been the game changer .68
I love. Heavy razor

I probably meant I didn't like the look of the handle

The mildest is probably the Rockwell 6C on the one plate, but it's almost too mild. I like the Dark Stag razor that I have. It's nice and mild
@@CravingShaving Thanks, I'll have a Google of them and I'll pick one up
