unlike "neil jagger", I use a DE every day. and I can do a two or even three pass shave in 6 minutes or less. today my shave took 5 minutes because I felt lazy and it was only a 2 pass shave. WITH THE GRAIN each time. and im feeling better, looking better, then I can with a cartridge.
brush was fully hydrated in hot tap water, razor and blade soaked as well. water was still nice and warm when I started shaving. shave was great. and trumpers violet is interesting
Shaving with cartridge razors, say fusion/mach 3/ schick qautro would take 20-30 minutes. mostly just trying to unclog the razor and trying not to scream in agony.
@Bezoar I was talking to a guy down the pub today about my crossing over to DE shaving and he told me he can get 6 MONTHS use from ome Fusion blade.. errr OOUUUUUCCCCCCHH!
the cartridge wagon is pure profit. sell a super cheap product that doesn't last long, and make 3 dollars in profit per head.
the average consumer is um well, not very bright.
Sorry man but you are talking out of your bum. I can get at least a month out of a cartridge with jeans stropping and using good artisan soap so this don't make sense like. You gotta be bright to get your cash from a cartridge but yer can. Most guys I know manage to get good long use out of a cartridge.
Out of choice, necessity or are they just not aware of the alternatives, I'd wager on that latter. Most guys I know manage to get good long use out of a cartridge.

You use what you want Hoss, I really think everybody should use what they get along with, and includes the soap they use, I was joking about the canned stuff....really, we live in a country where we have the fredom of choice which is a fantastic thing, I use what I want and would not want ENYONE telling me otherwise, so it would be crass of me to say anything about what anybody else wants to use. Shave happy.Well "Ahhm Sorreh Monkeh" but I gotta love Nivea Sensitive Cooling Shaving Gel But give me mah fellow furry Darron the Fox's soap all day over even tho I love it!
