Re: Gillette is releasing a 5-blade razor...
Way back in the early days of SNL, when 2 blade razors were becoming popular. they ran a spoof ad for the "triple track" three blade razor and a bogus explanation of why three blade were better than two. The last line was "Triple track, because you'll believe anything.".
I guess truth is stranger than fiction.

Do you know how Gillette makes each razor better than the last? Quality of the blades. They basicaly put blades that arnt as sharp and go blunt quicker (read cheaper) and are made of inferior steal etc into there old razors and put the good stuff only into their latest creation. If you could find one of Gilletes older razors but with the blades it had when it was first release it would give you just a good a shave as a Mach 3 currently does. The reason they do this is simple. Notice how the blades and the thing they go into get steadily more expensive? Gillete cant just release a razor and then sit back, it has to keep selling us new and expensive razors to make $$$$$$$. It does this by basicaly nerfing the razors for older shavers. Thus you are basicaly forced to go out and spend X on a new razor if you want a decent shave. On release date there has been basicaly no improvement in performance over the last 3 generations of razor and most the new features are gimmicks. [/ QUOTE ] Here is a tip for anyone that uses a razor. After each use, put the blades in mineral oil. You will get a good 3 months use out of one blade. I don't know what it is about the oil, but it does not allow the blade to go dull. Just do a google search and you can see that this works. At places like sharper image you can buy some rip off fluid that claims to do the same thing, but this is basically mineral oil. A huge bottle will cost you 4 bucks at your local drugstore. This works for me and I have the fastest, thickest beard growth of anyone I have ever seen....I can literally grow a full beard in like 8 days........

People still use blades? I thought everyone had discovered that a good electric is 10x better. [/ QUOTE ] i had a really good electric, but after a while i developed some really itchy bumps under my chin. a dermatologist said it was because of the razor, as the most expensive ones cut it so close, you eventually develop ingrown hairs. he recommended single blade BIC. the bumps were gone in 2 weeks.

Meh. These are coming back to fashion. I'm ordering one this week. [/ QUOTE ] LOL a single blade OMG ur such a n00b111!! In all seriousness I applaud this idea. The multi-blade stuff is ridiculous. When 2 and 3 blades came out, they said it was better because you didn't have to go over the same spot on your face multiple times, thus reducing irritation. Well I'm pretty sure going three strokes with one blade will be less irritating than one stroke with five blades. But I was no math major, so I could be wrong.
