Just for fun, I decided to read over the wikipedia article on Straight Razors.

For the most part it holds what to me seems to be pretty solid information on razors themselves. Has several types of points listed, modern manufacturers, some history, general info on straight razors, even the angles to shave at and the advantages over cartridge razors.

It does however leave out an important historical note. It mentions the downfall of the straight razors due to disposable bladed razors. Double Edge ones. It jumps straight into the realm of King Gillette without even a whiff of those single edge razors so many people enjoy, or an echo of the name Gem.

I wonder why.
