    Hi Blu,

    Merkur slant bar double-edge safety razor, block of cheap shaving soap (8 to the tube), scuttle and brush. Seems to work O.K.

    I use a Gillette Mach 3 and regular (though unscented)soap, I have been pleased with it for the last 4 years.

    Cheers

    Nivea for Men shave gel w/ a throw away triple blade Target razor. Change it out once a week. Followed by Nivea for Men face lotion w/ sunscreen. On the road it's no shaving or just shampoo and a throw away razor. Used to have a beard until it got gray and it had to go.

    I'm usually rushing my morning routine, so I usually just bust out the electric shaver in the car on the way.

    When I'm not rushing, I use a Mach 3 Turbo (much love to Gillette for sending that out on my 18th birthday a few years back!) with whatever shave gel I get my hands on.

    Lately I've just been letting it grow though.

    The best razor I have ever found is the Bic Metal (single blade), and I have used replacable blade, multi blade, injectors, and electric. Close shave and I can use one for well over a month. They started becoming very hard to find about 5 years ago, and about that time I found a stash in a drug store in Charlotte, NC (bought the entire stock). I did not see them again until this summer when I found them in a store in Scranton, PA (I bought another 5 year supply - 4 packs of 10).
