I guess it's an Art of Shaving?
The trend has already died somewhat I believe. Certainly to the point that it won't sustain a large chain store for men's Shaving items. Their stuff is good but no better that Proraso, just pricier.

Now you need to buy a vintage Gillette fat boy and you will know utopia shaving.

if I use a rgzor with 4 or 5 blades the hair gets caught up in it easy and doesn't come out as easy.
Yep.

That's Mr. Impulsive Freak to you boy.
But really, what's the big deal? I liked the shave, it was very clean & close; bar none it is the best razor I've ever owned. So, why wouldn't I like it? Why does that fact trigger you?

They cream and the soap are essentially the same thing. One you just work harder to rehydrate and make it a cream.
I disagree. A shave soap is going to be 'thinner' even when fully foamed up. Its slicker though. Cream has got that thicker/heavier feel. I mix. I've got a cheap glycerin soap and some taylors cream. Get soap on one side the brush and cream on the other. I like the cream more, and the soap helps it get slicker.

IMO a Gillette Slim adjustable is just as good and half the price. Unless you find one and get lucky, Fatboys are overpriced. They even have rarities. If you find a Bottom dial Fatboy in the case, it may be worth a thousand dollars one ebay. shite is crazy.
Slims are everywhere and if you pay more than $30 for one, you could have looked harder.
FTR, I own 18 safety razors. I am done.

I've not found that with Cella. You just have to work a little harder. It looks thinner but the brush is still loaded. I can always tell when I am done and go to rinse the brush. Takes forever for it to stop making suds.

I agree slims shave just as good. Just sold one for $20. But every time I rotate back to the fatty I'm impressed with the heft of it.

Based on the name alone id buy it.

Slick is still more important than having all this voluminous, yet somewhat unnecessary foam

Ted2010 do you have a Timeless Razors? I have a Merkur Futur and a 23C short handle. I have been looking at American made razors and think I might try a Timeless. I know of like the idea that you can purchase different blade gaps.

I just bought a 20 pack of single blade Bics...work like a champ.
Posted on 7/5/17 at 9:06 pm to Ted2010
I've been thinking about making the switch for a while, now. I finally made the plunge today. My new setup, which will arrive tomorrow:
Merkur MK23C long handle razor
Henry Cavendish Himalaya shaving soap
Ceramic mug with a ball handle
Miusco badger hair brush
Feather blades
