Thread: My first DE is on the way...

Congratulations! Safety razors are just as fun to shave with as straights.

I've had my easiest/best shaves with the Shark Chrome blades.

A DE razor with a sharp blade does a pretty good job, eh?

What makes it "entry level" ? It's inexpensive, but that doesn't mean that any other DE razor is for "advanced shavers".

PS -- I fear this will become an obsession of mine. "Entry level" this, "entry level" that -- our tools all cut beards, and if you use them badly, they all shave badly.
