I Waxed The Badger.
@Nicholas interesting on the Bic's I didn't know there was essentially a sensitive version of the Metal. It's not in the US market. The only round handled Bic's we have are the Metal. BTW, still love that Yellow Lady Eversharp I got from you.
@Nick Styptic While I do like some of the razors that take 1/2 Blades. I have a Focus R48, my want here is true cart. Snap, click, clip whatever, no futzing with blades by hand.
In general, I think a lot of one, two and even some three blade carts have a nice head size. That is certainly an advantage of carts or some SE designs (mostly Injector or AC format) have over DE and GEM style blades. The thinner head is nicely maneuverable. That said, I've learned to shave my upper lip just fine with GEMS, OneBlade and the like. You just have to be a bit more creative. Of course another advantage of carts or SE is the ability to design some angle into the handle for ergonomic purposes.
This is just a though process on "let's make a really good one blade cart. It seems we have really good two blade already (Attra, TracII, Sensor and Gillette Guard - the ONLY knock for me against the Guard is the head is the same size as a 5 blade head). Maybe someday I will try a Sensor again. It's been so long I can't remember. I know the Attra and TracII are very nice, I'm sure it is as well.
But dang it, I want a one blade Attra, TracII, Sensor, etc. LOL
