I've found full cream works better than milk. YMMV.

Yeah, I guess it might depend a bit on what quality brick you have. I have a fairly extensive collection, and with my favourite bricks I find that fatty creams work best. Although I've ordered some goats milk now, and I'm curious to see how it stacks up against cow milk. :lol:

I gotta say... that was quite possibly, the most immature, and asinine video I have ever seen. It wasn't even funny.... 3 minutes of some clown destroying a razor?

God I hope more high schoolers don't get into straight razor shaving :rolleyes:

I have to think that the razor he is using in the video was a razor that was not worth fixing . he looks like he as to many razors to just trash one like that . Personally I would not do such a thing but I must admit it made me laugh .

I know one thing for sure,that Norton he splashed milk on should smell real good after it soaked in and soured.:117:

That razor looked a great deal like the $6 ones on ebay. While humorous, I really hope no youtuber ever thinks this is serious!

He should have put that razor to better use cutting his hair! O.o

Long hair is fine on guys, but not like that :lol:

Come on Joel! Have a sense of humor. The satire of people spending $100's of dollars on a stone and this guy is using a brick. Sure he gets a bit carried away, but the start had me laughing.

He may have swerved stumbled on to something, loosening the metal.

If anybody thinks that is serious they should not have a sharp instrument in their hands and that includes pencils and screwdrivers!
