These 5 blade razors are nothing more than a gimmick
 

All they do is give more places to get hair stuck. I get a much closer shave with a two blade bic razor.

i believe Gillette is working on a 6 blade razor to counter schicks 5 blade...

Braun Electric Shaver all the way...

They will have to mail me a free sample to even try it. I am not impressed with the 3 and 5 versions I have tried.

Even when I was a kid electric shavers never did it for me. I use one to knock back the forest, but I still have to follow up with a blade.

Gimme a butcher's knife and some shaving cream, that's the smoothest shave :)

the one i got is the vibrating one yo , i use it for my testicles and it is nice

yo the braun works...plus it cleans itself....chicks dig it too

you are right

Those Gilette ones don't do much for me either. I've not noticed any improvements from what i used before. Just more expensive...

I thought the maximum number of blades on a razor was 4!

Any pics??

gillette fusion has 5 blades..

Does it do anything as far as the hair is concerned or are you just going for the vibration?

anything more than a 2 blade is useless .. and i always cut up under my nose with those thick fricken heads they have on the "5 blade assassin's" pretty much hate them ..

that is the bravest thing i have ever heard of:Oh crap

and i agree with bd on using the two blade action...buy a whole pack of them use one per stroke, and throw them away still costs about as much as buying one 50 blade spiel......

You're right. Went and put my glasses on, it is a Quattro . But Google indicates a 5 blade is coming soon if not already here

I thought you haven't shaved your dirty yellow beard for about 60 years?

He's mad at gilette because he just got his ass

So much for getting the ladies to go down there...

i got that fusion shit and it actually HURTS when i shave. it feels like its pulling the hair out, even when its a brand new blade.

i think im gonna try out an electric soon, i just dont know whats the best one to get.

I seen pictures of you scaring young models stop telling lies you ain't shaved in years

Are you shaving yourself :)

Braun Electric for me... Though they've been pushing the "5 blade razor" a lot in Oz.

I have the Gillette Fusion and I love it :)

What a MAN:thumbsup :thumbsup

I went as far as 3 blades, didn't see any difference and went back to 2.
Like most things it's all about the marketing.

You don't really strike me as a reliable razor spokesmen.

gotta agree here.

I notice a few people mention electric razors, but those never work for me , im not sure if its just guys with very little facial hair or what, but they dont do squat.

The 3-4-and5 blade razors all suck , i bought the new one it leaves m with razor burn and clogs up faster.

If you want a really good shave i know a secret razor that works great. its a womens leg disposable one . 2 blades. i dont know the name , i make the wife buy em hah.. but its got an oval shaped handle. best shave around.

use one of those expensive fucking electrics, but I still have to use a mach 3 to get close enough

2 blade razor is the best

Fusion works amazingly well, that's what I use

i got one and im sticking to my mach 3
its way better then that 5 crap

harkens back to one of my favorite Onion articles:
"Fuck Everything, We're Doing Five Blades"

Of course the article on Matchbox 20 being wusses was classic too:

Electrics work good but you have to use it for like 2 weeks straight before you start getting a good shave, most people aren't that patient.

I personally use the Mach 3, works good, and they sell the blades at Costco.

I like the Mach 3. I am howver, adverse to paying $25 for 8 replacement cartridges.

I like the Mach 3 .. it works well and i have to take less passes to get a close shave. the one with the 4 blades and the single on the back just doesn't work well for me. the thing is too thick and i feel like I'm going to cut my face open with the single on the back ..

I've used the 2-blade for years. I tried the Mach-3 when it first came out and it didn't hold a candle to my old standby that I use to this day, the Gilette Sensor Excel. I can't imagine the 5-blade waste-of-cash would fare any better than the Mach-3.
