Straight Edge Razor

Posted on 10/26/2008 by robotgeek

I’ve used Mach 3 since I started shaving. It worked well for a long time. Then, my stubbles grew thicker, and Mach 3 lost its sharpness after a few shaves. This led to unsatisfactory shaves. I switched to the the Shlick Quattro – I like this blade (i’ve been using this blade for about a year and a half).

I have now started using the straight edge razor – yes, very old school! (FYI, I’m using a razor with disposable blades).

It is very involving, but I feel great after. I’ve managed to nick myself in several places, but hopefully my technique will get better with time and I don’t cut myself at all!

Unfortunately, I don’t think this can be a part of my daily schedule. It is very time consuming. Shlick for the weekdays, straight edge during the weekends!

About robotgeek

Rocker, philosopher, Mac lover, geek, robotics freak and an optimist. These describe me adequately, i guess! When I find time away from my lab, I love to code my robots using java to be compatible with robocode . I also make it a point to visit Slashdot or read on Wikipedia . Of course, all this has to be done while listening to Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Metallica or Pearl Jam, mostly on Shoutcast online radio . I also like to read. Though I don't find much time now, I generally stick to what I like, which is Ayn Rand. Let's just hope the world heads in the right direction 2004 has been the year of the blog, and I could not be left out!
