This I a very timely topic. I've been experimenting with different disposables for two months because I'm tired of throwing away money on the almost $20 per 4pk of disposable cartridges. I have a Homer beard that grows back 10sec after I shave so blades dull quickly. 100 blades for less than $15 plus a handle sounds worth a try.

Does anyone who is using a double edge safety razor have a blade recommendation? There are too many to chose from and I would like to limit my experimentation to what works well for others.

Does the weight of the handle make a big difference in the closeness of the shave?

Thanks all
