Hi wet shave dudes,
I’ve been shaving my head with a DE razor for a few years now. I’ve had a few cheap £20 razors, but they don’t seem to last me very long.
On one the butterfly mecanism broke. My next was a 3 piece, which I dropped and the chrome chipped off. They were both Parker razors.
After some research, seems the way to go for durability is steel, but steel razors (e.g. rockwell 6s) tend to be above £100.
I’m not sure I’d be OK dropping that kind of money, so I wanted to ask: is there a good durable DE around £50?
Some razors are marketed as “tripple chromed”. Are they any better?
Cheers
You can get used Gillette DE for cheap. It may take a bit of labor to get it cleaned up.
the king gillette isn’t bad for the price if a bit shallow on the attack.
remember when gillette tried to kill safety blades?
KCG blades are my favorite! I don’t have any experience with the razor though.
It’s a fine starter razor.
