So I have finally used through my assortment of Dollar Shave razors and am wondering if there is something better to use. Any recommendations?

Cheap plastic blue Gillettes. They're all I use.

Been using these the last few years. They last a long time and do a good job.

I have found the best razors I've ever used:

Barbasol twin-blade, 5-pack at Dollar Tree for $1. They are wonderful and at 20c per razor, pretty hard to beat (and you can get a few uses out of each). They are almost too good to be true.

My wife tried to sneak those past me as if I wouldn't notice they weren't Gillettes because they sort of look like them. They were okay, but I like the Gillettes better.

I don't think Dorco is selling online anymore. Someone said that Amazon bought them out and is now selling them.

It’s good to have dreams.

While in Europe a few years ago there was a guy in the town square that was doing this. It was pretty cool, but not something I would want all the time.

I know it’s not exactly the same but my wife bought me one of those old fashioned shave kits with the lather brush and double sided razor. It works great but is kind of a pain so I usually end up using a conventional razor.

Currently using Harry’s, which work well. I particularly like the single blade on top for shaving under your nose. I can never get close enough with a typical multi-blade.

I use a double sided razor for the bulk of the shave, then use a disposable one just to tidy things up.

Ah yes, the town square of Europe.

I have a Merkur safety razor, with a variety pack of 50 blades from around the world.

I won't shave with a razor anymore, after having to go on blood thinners. It sucks but I can't stand it when I nick myself and then it won't stop bleeding. Electric razor for me.

It's a good one. Went and saw the full solar eclipse in St Louis a couple summers ago. Should have went to a barber while I was there.
