Thread: To DE or not to DE

I started shaving with a Straight a little more than 2 months ago. Un like other members I did not start with DE's and move on. I have recently become curious about them and am considering purchasing one to use when I am in need of a quick shave and can not dedicate the time and focus I normally do to my straight. I would like to completely swear off my fusion razor but i still use it to shave my head as im not ready yet to make a go of it with my straight. I wanted to know if anyone could tell me the difference and uses for the flat style looking DE's vs the ones that have an edge that looks like a comb and if there are distinct diffrences in the replacement blades used with each. Oh and are DE's and safety razors the same ? Not to mention any other relavant info you might have for me . What might be a good one to start with ? Thanks.
