Скачать или смотреть Revolutionary Shave Series: August 15, 1775 - One Round Per Man

“One Round Per Man.”

In this episode of the Revolutionary Shave Series, we explore one of the most dire realities of the American War for Independence: the critical shortage of gunpowder and ammunition in the summer of 1775.

With King George’s Proclamation of Rebellion still echoing from across the Atlantic, the American forces faced a brutal truth — they were ill-equipped for sustained war. Powder was so scarce that some soldiers had only a handful of rounds, and commanders like George Washington were rationing each musket shot.

We’ll talk about how the colonists responded:
• 🔥 Melting pewter mugs and window weights for musket balls
• 🚢 Smuggling black powder from French and Dutch sources
• 🏴‍☠️ Turning to piracy and raiding British supply ships
• 🛠️ Building the first primitive powder mills

All this history while enjoying a smooth shave with the Kai Captain Artist Club razor and RazoRock Black Bay soap — a nod to the black powder theme and naval undertones of the struggle.

Gear Used:
• Razor: Kai Captain (straight-style, Artist Club blade)
• Soap: RazoRock Black Bay
