    Out here by the lake!
    FedEx just dropped off my new Pitbull shaver. To think I have been using cheap disposables for all these years is nuts!

    Before the beard I used the cheap disposables on my face. I tried my dad’s electric razor once and hated it. Felt like it was yanking whisker instead of cutting them.

    This Pitbull shaver knocked it out in less time. Did a better job & no nicks or missed spots.

    I only like triple blade razors. I typically use Kirkland’s brand. I loved the Gillette Mach 3, but those prices got stupidly high. My favorite disposable was the Wilkinson triple blade, but those stopped coming in under Trump’s import taxes.

    I use an electric (Norelco) razor from time to time, but it does not get as close as a blade.

    I have down to my shoulders thanks to barbershops closing down for a time last year. Decided to let it go.

    I started keeping my hair in a flat top in 1992. When the chinese beer flu shut down all the barber shops I got clippers and started cutting my own hair. #2 on top and #000 on the sides. I can fade it in myself using 2 mirrors. Takes about 10 minutes to cut my hair, but sometimes I do sit in a chair for an hour or so first to get that barber shop experience.

    I went to a Schick (something fancy) after Gillette's bullshit.

    Shaves well but doesn't contour to non flat surfaces very well.

    Had some Schick disposables that did but they didn't last very long.

    Still looking for something better.

    Full head of hair but started buzzing it over 15 years ago. Remington rechargeable #1 every week. I always say I was going for the Bruce Willis look but instead look like Billy Bob Thornton in Sling Blade.

    I used to use the Mach 3 - stopped buying Mach 3 blades when Gillette went woke. Not thrilled with Schick's alternative, the blades seem to dull way faster. China-Mart's house brand worked better. Toying with the idea of getting the Harry's stuff, supposedly they're German made, which I find a lot more tolerable than Chinesium. Germans are pretty good metal smiths to boot, so hopefully their razors stay sharp longer.

    Schick or Gillette 3-blade disposables with the lube strips…whichever is cheaper.

    Less than a buck a blade.
    Toss them when the lube strips wear.

    3 blades seems to be the sweet spot for me.
