I bought a shaving mug, brush, soap, safety razor, and I get 100 Dorco blades off eBay for 8 bucks.
I went old school...
There is nothing like the feel of hot lather from a mug being applied with a shaving brush. They used to be made from beaver, but now some other kind of fur is used.
And I found out by accident that the Shick razor design allows you to see where you are shaving better than the double sided Gillette. I was visiting the home of a girlfriend’s parents and had forgotten my razor. It was a revelation.
The new priced competition for the Big Two razor manufacturers will probably result in a lowering of their price to stay competitive. All that BS about multiple blades is ridiculous.
Just my take on shaving.
