I have never seen such a heavy duty straight razor.

That barber is a creepy SOB.

He wastes inordinate time prepping and not enough sharpening the razor. Shaving sounded like he was using a hacksaw instead of a straight razor. A really sharp razor is very quiet.

Did I mention the barber was creepy?
 
No barber is rubbing their fingers on my lips without gloves on and I am in no means a germophobe. Creepy.

Agree with jeffbird, that straight razor sounds like crap as well.
 
This is obviously a staged production. It doesn't look AI. I was a little suspicious of the new condition of the leather strop. I have watched too many ASMR shaving YouTube videos to pick up on the no-gloves thing. Check out HairCut Harry on YouTube. I have ID'd the straight razor. It is a Hart Steel 6/8 square-point razor.
