    I love my safety razor. The ritual of shaving is soo much better with a brush and soap bowl rather than squirty cream from a can.

    It’s a learned skill though and does take practice, I recommend the book Leisureguys guide to Gourmet shaving.

    Get a multi pack of blades and work out which ones you like best.

      I bought 50 blades and a box of Arko sticks for like $30 a decade ago and I’m still going through them.

      Can’t you use squirty cream from can with a safety razor?

        Yes, that’s what I use.

        It’s just that safety razors are often considered to be a thing of shaving enthusiasts, and if you go through that rabbit hole, you commonly go all the way.

        Of course you can, I just really like the ritual with the brush and soap.
