[QUOTE="whatsinaname, post: 1089431, member: 11089"] Haha, yeah. I got some 25$ Parker razor and 10$ brush. Not going to buy anything else. (Maybe the Merkur HD, but not very tempted. :P) The feather blades are I think some of the best around. I tried others from a sampler pack and I think I'll stick with feather or 7 o'clock. These cost 35$ for 100 blades which is around 350 shaves for me. or 1$ for 10 shaves. Gilette mach 5, is 20$ for 8 blades which is ~80 shaves. or 1$ for 4 shaves. That is just from the cost perspective. I also get a much much better shave from the DE razor. I don't go against the grain. I do 1 pass with the grain and 1 at a 45 degree angle (downwards and forwards). The second stroke is a bit difficult and I cut myself a few times initially. After I got used to it, the two passes in ten minutes make me look human for 2 days. (Unless there is a meeting on the second day. :P) [/QUOTE]
