And the DE blades themselves cost - literally, pennies. After the initial investment, I'm paying less then $30 (American) for 2 years of blades - versus, whatever, $5 a "blade" that I have to try to stretch for 2 weeks in the cartridges.

So, I guess it all matters what is important to you. If your beard and skin are accustomed to a less than optimal shave, and all you have is 3 minutes? Then I would recommend sticking with your chemsoap and "cartridges" composed of thin slivers of metal (and I won't derogate the quality of the metal - just not enough of it) encased in hugely expensive scaffolding - and just leave the rest of us alone.

Just my $0.02.

Where did I attack or degrade how you do it? If I get a good shave from them, and millions of men do, why is it less than optimal?


It's a wet shaving thread, how I do it is still wet shaving isn't it? I'm in here reading the posts to learn, but my post wasn't critical of others it just pointed out the positives of the simple multiple blade disposable.
