I bought an antique straight razor off ebay, a strop, and a shaving brush and soap. A bit of an upfront expense, but that razor is older than I am. As long as I take care of it it'll be an heirloom for my son, so the only expense is shaving soap (lasts longer than cream). After getting the hang of stropping it and the occasional sharpening, and actually using it, I get a better shave than my Mach 3 ever gave. It's funny, I see commercials for razors with 4+ blades, and a striaght razor is best.

I shave my neck and upper cheeks (sort of a Henry VIII look), so I like to have a good razor, but I don't shave every day. Every week or so, maybe.
