Shaving Facial Hair

[Commander Quan]

The Feathers are good, actually they are great, almost like a beard eraser. However they are too expensive IMO. I use the Red Box Personnas, I find they are almost as sharp and just as comfortable as the Feathers, and they are CHEAP, $10 for 100. At that price I use one blade for 2 shaves and replace it, so the blade never really gets dull. I would have to shave with a feather 7-10 times to get the same cost per shave.

That's good to know! I haven't tried those blades yet. My next round of buying blades I might have to give those a try. Thanks for the tip.


100th post! I know some of you are pushing into the thousands, but I'll take this as a small milestone.

See ... and my only regret is I didn't get any RBPs in my sampler pack. It was actually a gift from my wife and she got the smaller sampler rather than the huge one.

That said, you can pickup Feathers on eBay for $34/100 pack. More expensive than the RBPs; but a helluva lot cheaper than any other online store.

Be wary of these internet sources. I hear their product quality is not as good as buying them from a B&M.

Razor blades are the opposite of cigars all the best ones are from online retailers. I've never found any blades in the stores that are decient. Unless you need to scrape paint.
