Razors. Back in the day you could buy a razor and expect to shave with it every day for the rest of your life. I still have my first razor, a Gillette Slim Adjustable and it still shaves as well as it did the first day I brought it home. The heft and balance are something those new plastic razors and multi bladed monsters can never match.
Thankfully, internet shopping allows me to buy blades from around the world and now I can enjoy my old razor again.
Everyone who shaves should own a safety razor. The blades only cost a few pennies each, and they shave so well. Blade preference might be individual, but it's so cheap it's easy to experiment.
I've tried electrics, disposables, and the 200 blade monstrosity cartridges, (or whatever blade count they are up to now). But none of them shave as well as my trusty Slim Adjustable. I've also got a GEM single edge and a Schick Injector also - I love that Injector too. I got them because those are the razors I remember my Grandfathers using to shave with.
So I too can highly recommend them also. One razor to last a lifetime.
