[quote=mooby;832512]4 years later and I'm still using the Fusion, although I did upgrade to the Fusion Pro Glide. Doesn't really make much of a difference IMO. I'm going to have to downgrade to something cheaper when my blade gets dull though, because I can't afford another pack of the expensive Fusion blades. Any recommendations for something cheap yet still does the trick? Nothing battery operated though, I tried that route once and I prefer the hand touch instead.[/quote]

I run through blades once a week...one year supply of fusion blades cost almost 195 bucks while one year supply of a a Merkur Razor blades cost 28 bucks.

I had a horribly traumatic experience in boot camp regarding shaving and I have royally hated shaving every day since then.

Wow, I used "nether region" back in 2007 on this post!

Last year for my birthday, my wife got me a pretty fancy shaving kit-what with the pre-shave oil and badger brush.

Loving it!

Mine just got me a kit for my birthday. That prep stuff realy makes a difference.

Re: F...Shaving
 

I have used the brush stuff in the cup and it really does a great job.

You sold me on the Merkur by pointing out the cost of the blades. Gonna order one right now.

Which did you switch to? My Fusion does a fantastic job...(I tried a Quattro and it was a fail)...but as already mentioned the cartridges are just an arm and a leg.

Re: F...Shaving
 

I love the fusion too, except when it comes to buying the blades.

I'll second Matty on that one, I'm gonna order a year's supply for the double edged razor off Amazon tonight. My Fusion blade is already dull and even though I'm happy with them there's no way I'll pay 12 bucks for another 4 pack of blades again.
