Thread: How many of you also use a safety razor?

As i started my Collection with Safety Razors i still have around 250 of them and use them everytime i like,
since a longer time i prefer and love my straights but i love my Safeties too :-)

250??? holy moly thats a lot of razors.....

i have four - my grandfathers gillette Aristocrat, an english rocket flaretip (my fave) a gillette new type and a 72 black superspeed (as used by Charelton Heston in Soylent Green)

I use a DE to touch up after a straight razor shave, but every day my straight shaving gets better, with less need for touch ups.

I use both i try and use straights more but i use de when im in some places i just get nervous takein my straights into say a truck stop but im fine if i get a hotel for a night

I have one that I use occasionally, specially the days I'm just doing a quick shave, I like to enjoy my straight shaves more than just for a 3 minute shave

I started with safety razors, and then moved on to straights. The safety's are a little more forgiving, but still require the patience & correct angles to use properly.
