Thanked: 247Advantages of different width blades?
Well...if you get into a survival situation big blades can come in handy.
For example. You are shaving and an earthquake causes near total destruction to your home and you are trapped in your shave den with only your mug, brush, the towel wrapped around your waist, and your 7/8++. Thank The Lord! You can use that mighty blade to chop your way out of the structure, and later to dress the game you took using your other survival skills.
I cannot tell you how many times it has happened to me
I do love the aesthetics of a big blade...and I really appreciate the fewer distractions (fewer rinses)

Thanked: 247Thank you Hirlau. There's no emoticon that truly expresses the laugh I just got from your post.
But that one will have to do.

Thanked: 247(facepalm) Use the big steel to split the towel lengthwise, and again to strip out the hem. Then use the square point (you do have a square point right? All real survivalists know that a square point is mandatory) to cut a series of holes in one end of both remaining strips of towel, then use the hem strip as a lace to lash the two ends together into one double length towel.
My god, man...are you the type that is going to lay down and die while waiting for help during these impromptu survival situations that play out almost daily in this world...or are you a SURVIVOR?
Back on topic...so now it should be clear to the OP that the only razor to buy should have a square point and a minimum of 7/8s....because...you never know!

News Flash: In the ruins of the devastation, first responders approached what they believed to be the sole survivor. From behind the man having such an enormous backside, caused responders to be unable to see what he was doing. As the cheers of jubilation from responder and public alike rose, the man with the large backside turned to great those who were there to save him.
With malice in his eyes and wielding a HUGE 7/8 straight, responders were forced to shoot what clearly had become a man gone insane in the aftermath of current events.
Today's events were labeled unfortunate by the President and a group of men who seemingly still partake in the archaic act of shaving with straights.
In other news...David
