<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LA_Geezer, post: 2844928, member: 89393&quot;]Next time you are at eBay, check out the auctions for vintage Gillette DE (Double Edge) razors. There are also specialists around the country with long waiting lists that will restore your vintage razor for a hefty price.</p><p><br /></p><p>Actually I&#039;ve used all of my vintage razors. Drawing another analogy, razors are like cars, many drive/ride differently. As I noted, the older razors aren&#039;t quite as precise as the new ones, so a cheap blade that is sure to give you a harsh shave in the new razor won&#039;t be so bad in a 1953 Gillette.</p><p><br /></p><p>As for the cost of shaving, you might want to check out how much you are actually paying for those multi-blade monsters that big business wants to sell you. Checking Amazon, I can buy 100 of the popular Astra double edged blades for $10 less than an eight pack of Fusion Blades, and they&#039;ll last a lot longer. You won&#039;t need to replenish your Astras for several years. I am still using some Israeli Titanium blades that I bought in 2013 — 200 blades for $25 — about $6.25 per year, or about 52¢ per month; but I still have more than two dozen of them. How &#039;bout that, a hobby that saves you money!</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Astra-Superior-Platinum-Personal-Healthcare/dp/B00EXPTR0W/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1504620637&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=double+edge+razor+blades" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Astra-Superior-Platinum-Personal-Healthcare/dp/B00EXPTR0W/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1504620637&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=double+edge+razor+blades" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Astra-Superior-Platinum-Personal-Healthcare/dp/B00EXPTR0W/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1504620637&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=double edge razor blades</a></p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Gillette-Fusion5-ProGlide-Refills-Packaging/dp/B003983I1S/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1504620487&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=gillette%2Bfusion%2Bproglide%2Bblades&amp;th=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.amazon.com/Gillette-Fusion5-ProGlide-Refills-Packaging/dp/B003983I1S/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1504620487&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=gillette%2Bfusion%2Bproglide%2Bblades&amp;th=1" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.com/Gillette-Fusion5-ProGlide-Refills-Packaging/dp/B003983I1S/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1504620487&amp;sr=1-4&amp;keywords=gillette+fusion+proglide+blades&amp;th=1</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
