Take a look at Gillette's new razor.



It pivots, swivels and vibrates.

I use to watch my grandfather shave with his, read this thread, and bought one.  A merkur, with platinum blades provides a great shave. Only one downside. I can't shave as fast, and when I try, I cut myself. Other than that, I really like merkur. 50$ at amazon got me soap, a brush, and the razor with 10 blades. Money well spent.  I got off cheap this time arfcom.

Wrong.

For some of us, DE's are NOT better. I used one for years, lying to myself about how much better of a shave I was getting. I used a badger hair brush and a quality glycerine-based shave soap (still do) and you know what? It gave me a sub-standard shave and every few months a really nasty, painful, infected ingrown hair. Switched back to a Gillette Fusion Pro Glide and I get the best shave I've ever had, with little to no irritation, and best of all, no infected ingrown hairs.

Fuck double edge safety razors.

In fact, that reminds me, I've got two vintage Gillette adjustable DE's that need to go off to eBay...

I defected again. Turns out it was the Gillette adjustable DE's I was using. Got myself an Edwin Jagger and it's been great. And cheap.

I cut the living shit out of myself with one of those!  And can't shave as close.

It's all about technique. I have only cutyself once and that's when my kid came barging in the bathroom and bumped me forcing my hand sideways. Yeah that was fun. Lol. I will admit that one pass will not get a close shave but two definitely will. I have about 300 blades and that cost me less than 25 bucks. Fusion blades would cost me much much more
