Poll: One and only one blade format forever

[chazt]

What’s your Goldilocks blade? Not a brand, but a format. That one go to blade for a lifetime of perfect shaves.

While you can vote for only one, what’s the other one that you were this close to choosing?


Your answer may change next month or next year. Maybe never.. but let’s play anyway, shall we?

Easy one for me, I only use DE blades.

 

[Twelvefret]

Yes, I'll change my vote later...

 

[Kamp]

mmhh it depends on what i am shaving my head a DE (leaf razor) my face a straight so i cant decide here

 

[SpeedyPC]

DE all the way baby, and screw all the rest.

 

[TobyC]

Double edge or GEM, can't place one over the other.

 

[Driftwood]

DE, but I am very fickle and it will be AC next week....

 

[chazt]

A year ago I would’ve answered DE. Now, I’m going injector. I have it sussed.

 

[TRS]

Wow, that’s a tough choice!
I was convinced that injector-style blades were my definitive choice, but then I tried the Hair Shaper. Now I realize I’ll be using three types of blades: Hair Shaper, injector, and AC (though I think I still prefer the injector slightly over the AC). GEM blades are excellent too, but they feel a bit more aggressive on my skin.

While I get get decent shaves from my Schick Injector and Valet Autostrop ( Feather HS-10) razors,I use DE 95% of the time,so I have chosen DE blades.

 

[Masamune]

GEM of course

before that terrible time we had in '23-'24... would have said half-blade shavette... other than multi-blade carts & DEs we haven't really tried the others... DE is the current format...

No no, it's not that small.

This is why master Speedy is the prince of wet shaving.

After Randy of course, who is the king.

Artist Club has pulled ahead of straights. That's sort of like box cutters moving ahead of pocket knives.
