    Default My Selective letter openers

    I bought three Selective razors on eBay for $10. I thought, "How can I go wrong for $10?". Well, let me tell you...

    Even though I am new to s/r I can tell that these things are crap! I have an old antique store razor that I have been honing and stropping, trying to learn how it's done, and that shaves worlds better than the Selectives. Even after trying to hone them the old antique store razor is better.

    Just thought that I would share my experience.

    Just say no to Selective...

    (and on top of it all, they are butt ugly!)

    moral of the story: just because it's cheap doesn't mean you're saving money

    Selective, amongst other brands is on our "Do Not Buy" list.

    Check out the links in my signature for that and other good information.
