Well, after trying different blade types, there is still a dilema which one to choose as primary one. This is my opinion so far :
1.DE blades. This is the most affordable blade system. You pay a lot on razors if Rad kicks you in.
2.Injector razors. Blade are a bit expensive. Razors very affordable. The most easy razor to use. I would suggest it to any new beginner.
3. Gem razors. Nice choice of affordable high quality razors. Limited choice of blade types. Fantastic shaves after you get familiar to the razors.
4. Personna Hair Shaper blades. You need to use a Weck shavette, preferably with a guard. I couldn't master it at all,unless using the guard.
5. Artist club razor. I have a razor and I have to try it more to create an opinion. Several blade options and some expensive razors too.
6. Straight razors. Very intriguing to try it. The initial cost and the required tools and skills have been a hindrance for me to try it yet.
If I were to choose my main system, today I would say the gem based ones. You can get 4 or 5 vintage razors plus 100 gem blades under 100 usd and have it done.
If I would want to have the thoughtless shaving experience, I would choose injectors. A schick M adjustable razor would be suffice for decades.
De blades are everywhere but not so fun unless you get and try new razors but that is pointless to me.
Maybe I should try AC and straight razors to decide for good.
Never thought to be in such position.Strange hobby.
Anyone in the same boat as above or am I just over thinking?
