    I don't get the whole "shave club" thing. I have been shaving with a straight razor for years. The first couple of times you use one, you come out looking like you lost a fight with a chain saw, but once you get the hang of it, you'll never get a better shave with anything else.

    When I used to shave, I used a cheap single blade bic and nipped of the guard, worked great!

    I shave every other day and nothing beats a regular old Bic - not the comfort strip or the pivot .. just a plain old cheap double-edged Bic.

    Doubt if i spend a penny more than 6 bucks a month - so Dollar Shave makes absolutely no sense to me.

    I use the 4 blade DSC. I haven't used the Executive blade as yet. DSC beats my old cheapo 10 in a bag ones for comfort. I have a light beard so if you have a heavier one the expensive ones may be better for you. The DSC handle does need improvement. Eventually it won't eject the old blade off of the handle without a pry with the finger nail clipper.

    It still lasts longer than your average Gillette razor. I had mine for over a year before it got to that point, where the ejector piece popped off. So I just ordered a new one for still less than a new base-level Gillette handle would have cost.

    The only change I would look for to the DSC handle (I use the 4X) would be a little more curvature for easier grip, similar concept to Count Dooku's lightsaber from Episodes II and III of Star Wars:

    I would, but outside of the goatee (which I am letting grow) I just can't do a full beard, it never grows right.

    Didn't realize the forum had so many hairbags.



    So I ordered the Dorko 3 blade razor and 10 cartridges from Amazon for $15. I'll give an update on how good they are.
    my junk is ugly

    I can't grow a full beard, I wind up looking like a homeless dude.

    My son can and has one.

    I like looking scruffy (tickles her thighs) but I can't really keep that look. Plus it itches.
