I love a good close shave. Ive never been able to feel that with a disposable. There is nothing better than a long, towel soaked, brush soaped lather shave on an oil pre-shave..
But, I am retired and shave once a week or so. I couldnt do that every day.
Yep, retirement cut back on the amount spent on razors. I shave about every third or fourth day, so the blades last a long time.
I still prefer Gillette products and use their Mach 3 in the big open areas. Then I finish with an old Gillette Sensor to get under my nose and for sideburns. The monster, low-angle 3-blade and 4-blade razors just can’t get under the nose.
