City boys we are here,sh*g your women and drink yo
I had a shave with a Wilkinson Sword Classic double edged razor.
I had read on another forum that the DE type of razor gave a closer shave than the modern multi blade razors,and the pop in DE blades were alot cheaper to buy.
So I splashed out £4.25 at boots for a Classic with 5 blades included.
Was absolutely kacking it as I scraped away at my 3 day old stubble with the literally "razor sharp"blade,expecting to inflict a deep cut with every stroke.
(I remember putting a deep gash into my chin when I was about 15,and it seemed to keep on bleeding for hours).
I don't think that I could use it in the morning before going to work as you have to be very slow and careful with the blade,and now 24 hours on the stubble is starting to come back and it doesn't seem to have given a closer shave.
Maybe I'll play it safe and stick with my Asda 3 blade cartridge razor in future.
 
ive tried every type of wet shave blade whether it was one two three or four blades and have settled on superdrugs own brand equivelent of gillete g2 at £1.99 for 10 blades. all this £6 for 4 gillete blades is pure advertising bollocks

Yes the blades are a bit expensive(around £10 for 4) but it really is the best shave ive ever had and you can use the blades around 2-3 times before replacing them


Only two or three times. You must be shaving your balls as well. Get a good daily shave for over two weeks with one of them
