Well, so I guess I'll add my own 21 cents (2 cents adjusted for inflation since the year I was born). I had always used a cartridge razor starting with a Trac II ca. 1975, and never knew any of this existed until I heard a radio interview regarding the subject. This revelation coincided with my desire to end my decades long relationship with Gillette/P&G. The thought of using a DE razor also conjured up memories of watching my father shave with one when I was really little. Interestingly, in the early 1970s, he went from using a DE razor to dry shaving and did so for the rest of his life.
In any case, I have one razor, one brush, one container of shaving soap and one container of aftershave balm. I also have about 75% of the variety pack of blades I initially bought. While I may get another razor at some point, I have enough projects and a full-time job and do not envision this becoming more than what it is; and more luxurious and yes, economical way to get a close shave.
