Where does my mach 3 fit in?

That is somewhat classed as a somehwat acceptable travel substiitute, or a "finishing" razor to someone new to straight razors, like myself!!!

However, I will finish off with an old Gillette when I do use my Dovo straight. I ain't got the balls yet to go against the grain anywhere near a major artery.

Once I saw what those Mach III blades cost, I swore I'd never buy another one again.

I've never considered a straight razor.

btw, if you think mach 3's cost alot. I have this 5 plus 1 bladed number and a 4 pack of blades is 13 bucks.

So where did you get the straight razor?

[nhcigarfan]

Holy crap those things are expense, a couple of hundred bucks for the kit, screw it, I'll stick with my 3 dollar disposible blades. I have enough expensive hobbies.

I know Dude. I was looking at those things after I saw the price on the Mach IIIs.

I got the Straight at a shop in Detroit. I could have gotten it cheaper on-line, but for my first one, I wanted to get something I know would feel nice in my hands.

I used to get 2 weeks out of 3 blades, sometimes I'd go through 2 blades a week. That's ~ $6-7 a week, X 52 weeks = > $300. So far, I have in the vicinity of $250 invested in razors and parts 'n pieces, a good brush, a few soaps and stuff. I have more coming, but these will do me for life with a few $ in DE blades once a year.

Also, there is absolutely no comparison to how my face feels now after a shave.

EDIT:

If you want to get really fancy, it would be easy to spend $1500 on a razor and $500 on a brush.

Dan, sorry for the threadjack there dude.

My enjoyment of CS has declined drastically over the last few months. All because of drama. I stay out of drama because if it doesn't involve me i don't want to be in it.

I'm pretty much an electric kinda guy, I have a Norelco cordless but the damn thing won't hold a charge for very long any more.

I just wish I could grow a decent beard. Fugg. No sideburns- just fuzz and the spot where the beard meets the stache on the left side is challenged. I can basically grow an incomplete dirtstache

Here's a sig tag from one of CigarLive's moderators, a guy called "cigar_joel"

Cigar Lives Por Larranaga and Pitit Corona whore!
Dont forget to enter Joel's Review Contest

The apostrophe key must be broken on his keyboard and he really ought to learn how to spell "Larrañaga" and "Petit Corona" what a dope.

Now back to shaving. Does anyone use those Bic disposable razors? I tried them once and they did a horrible job.
