I find the 5 blade razors ride over the shaving foam rather than cutting through it so you get a closer shave with the 3 blades. These days I use either Tesco or Aldi as blades are much cheaper. TBH the Tesco one gives the better shave.

Might be worth checking your local Ikea to see if they sell razors?  :P ;D ;D ;D

I shave once week whether I need a shave or not!  ::) ::) ::)
Me too, although that's as much to do with my "baby face complexion" as can't be arsed  :) :)

Just switched to Wilkinson sword, with 'gel' thing on it. What a bloody nice shave!

Did have those Gillette battery powered jobbie, supposed to 'stimulate' them to stand up, but this Sword one was just super, super smooth, so nice to shave with.

Got it with a box of about 15 blades from Costco, should last me years  ;D

Emd, I was stupid enough to buy those Poundland razors - 3-blade "power" - and they felt like dragging a rusty, used hacksaw blade across my face!I have a Gillette Mach 3 power razor, but the cost of the blades means it sits in the bathroom cabinet most of the time.
I'm currently using Wilkinson's pikey 10-for-a-£1 twin blade disposables!

I use Mach3 3 blade cartridges. On the rare occasions I can be arsed, that is. Good enough for me.

Being a bit of a gay boy, I have to use sensitive skin Gillette gel, and shave in a very hot bath, so its like a sauna. Blind, obviously, mirrors are for confirmed ladyboys.
