I just got some Feather blades and cut the hell outa myself. I can't imagine an electric getting it done. Didn’t take long for someone to mention Japanese Feather’s, been using them in a mid-50’s Gillette adjustable safety razor my sister gave me as a gift a long time ago. I never got into the badger brush and soaps and creams she gave me, so I use the super ultra-sensitive cream off the shelf, probably Gillette.

Now I know who is buying all those blades. Back when I needed to be more presentable it was a disposable razor, but now that I've gotten a little gray around the muzzle and retired going scruffy for a day or two is almost expected. For me it isn't an all or none shaving thing and my Braun rechargeable electric with the cleaning base and a new head every year or two takes care of scruffiness well enough that no one seems to notice or care. I suppose that missing a few whiskers is just chalked up to early senility or lack of coordination. Okay, when I still need to be more presentable when Sweetness drags me off to some function then yes, a blade and some shaving cream works better. Being the sensitive guy that I am, the pink women's disposable razors are set at a shallower angle and won't cut you as often as the manly blue ones. Don't tell nobody and keep your pink razor in a locked drawer.

Those of you who openly and publicly discuss metrosexual shaving techniques and equipment are on my watch list now. Any mention of man buns or .270's by you guys and you'll be listed as out of the closet completely. what after shave balm and skin conditioner are you using right now, does it smell good? LOL

Nope. Nor do I do any of that sissy "body sculpting" nonsense that Gillette promoted. I shave my face, period.

A lot of guys at my office have gone to the Dollar Shave Club. I've been thinking about giving them a try myself but haven't gotten around to it. I'm satisfied.

We pray our sights be straight
and our aim be true
We pray for no pain
to the game we pursue
We thank you Lord
for this land
We thank you for the sights
from our stands
We pray for safety, one and all
We pray we may return next fall

Made by Harry's. Great shave and way cheaper than Gaylette. ![[Linked Image]](https://images.bonanzastatic.com/afu/images/ff90/86eb/6ab9_7950481503/s-l1600.jpg) I'm curious who makes them. My guess would be gillette. Has anyone tried putting a Kirkland blade on a mach 3 handle? If it is Gillette making them I would bet they made sure they are not compatible.

Back in the day I thought the Sensor 2 was a revolution! Got tired of buying cartridges, went disposable for years. Wife found a new box of sensor refills and I used one. Damn they are nice. Got me all fired up, I went and bought a cheap safety razor. I love it. Scared at first, but it's no problem, and darn does it work well. For those that use Cremo, Put it on like normal, or a bit wetter. Then, add a bit of canned cream or gell on top. You won't believe how nice that combo is.

Glad to hear.
My most recent shaving experience revolves around different combinations of razors and blades. I got a fairly lethal albeit adjustable Viking razor from a GoodGuy here with a stack of Feather blades. Oh hell thats too close! LOL However, when I threw a cheap Astra blade in it, it resulted in a fantastic shave.... Then, the Feathers used in the Van deFugg from Walmart worked great. Lost some confidence in Cremo, might try that with a bit of gel
Anything to look pretty....
As an aside. I just took the clippers, head to toe... Can't possibly fathom the evolutionary advantage!

I use soap and a brush. I also use the Mach 3. I lie this combination.
