[QUOTE="SteveMKentucky, post: 544998, member: 4231"] So now the thread gets down to personal preference. Can a Walgreens safety razor shave well? Of course it can. So why would anyone want a 'fancy' razor? I think it's somewhat like pipes. A Missouri Meerschaum cob can smoke mighty fine. So why would anyone buy a Dunhill, Charatan or an Ashton? I'd argue that there is some value to inherent quality. I smoke a Missouri Meerschaum on occasion but really love the feel of a finely crafted pipe in my hand as well. It's the same with razors. Each has its own qualities. If we didn't care about the distinctions we might as well just use a modern multi-blade razor and be done with it. [/QUOTE]
