razors suck. my grandpa gave me a Gillette razor that screwed open in the middle, took the double edged blades. i used it my entire life till it finally wore out 5 years ago. you can't find a decent one like that anymore, anything that looks like one in an ad is a piece of shit when you actually get it. just started using the yellow disposables and throw them away the first time it tugs hard.
Man I used to love the straight razor shave at the barber shop. Now I just do as you suggested, disposable and throw away at first tug..

i have to. i don't have a full beard, have a fu manchu, kind of.... if i let it grow, it makes my neck itch all the time, i look like i'm either a junky or a homeless person with fleas
I'm kinda in the same boat - I can do a killer Fu Manchu or a nice Goat but if I quit shaving all together they'd call me Patches.
Too much Crow Dad said.

I haven't shaved in at least 6 years
I'm going on 4 years this October without shaving. When I did shave, it was a double edge razor. Only razor I could get a smooth shave and wouldn't get severe ingrown hairs. There still out there, I got a cheaper one that the head unscrews and you put the blade under it. My grandfather had an old gold plated Gillette clamshell that my aunt threw away when he went into assisted living "because they're dangerous":roll:. I was pissed, I've wanted it since I was a little kid.

So, I've always used Gillette razors even way back to Super Blue's. Now using their Fusion blades, but noticed that WalMart is selling Harry's Razors. Starter kit: $10. Always been intrigued by them, anyone use them? Or do they shave like disposables which I definitely don't like.
I use Dollar shave club. I have to cancel about every six months to use up what eventually accumulates into stock, from them sending a 4 pack per month.

Think it's like 5 bucks and it's the 4 blade razor. 3 solid 2 day growth shaves and 2 everyday shaves before it becomes my gooch and ball bag razor. I have multiple handles, btw.

Hey the wifey likes smooth balls. Least I can do

Anyway it's a pretty solid blade for the price
