I'm 83 years old and have been a daily wet shaver since age 15. Our whiskers tend to become more tough and difficult to shave as we age. I got to thinking, what razors do I find most effective and comfortable for cutting my coarse facial hair nowadays? (I have about 85 razors, and most well known blades work similarly well for me).
