Much ...Mike, thanks for your sharing your thoughts. Much appreciated.<br /><br />I do want to add some things about canned foam/gel. Literally thousands of cans of this type of product are sold every day in the USA. That means that thousands of empty cans go to landfills every day! This is a waste of raw materials (in the can packaging) and, more importantly, adds more unnecessary material to our trash stream. Unfortunately, too many of us bring this disposable-product/disposable-packaging mentality to virtually every aspect of our lives, and it means looming disaster for our environment and many living things (especially humans).<br /><br />I encourage all who read this to become aware of such issues. Drive smaller and more ecologically-friendly vehicles. Encourage development and expansion of effective public transportation. And give more consideration to the fact that our world isn't a trash can! Every item that you "throw away" is simply relocated to another place in your living space. Nothing is thrown away, it's merely relocated out of your view. And eventually this will become more obvious as we reap the consequences of our thoughtless habits. Reduce, reuse, recycle! Shaving soap is more convenient in my opinion because I don't have to slather it on with my hands. If someone doesn't agree, then they may need some instruction on face lathering rather than bowl lathering. More importantly, shaving soap is much more ecologically responsible!!!Doug Hansfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15174919444573120386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3515480284164565162.post-35707995758739199822018-04-29T19:25:00.680-04:002018-04-29T19:25:00.680-04:00They are a great blade, smooth and sharp with dece...They are a great blade, smooth and sharp with decent longevity.<br /><br />I typically get a week out of them, and along with my other blades in rotation I think I am good for about 20 years haha.<br /><br />Although, I have stopped using soaps though and gone back to canned Barbasol, for the convenience.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17347863263947604141noreply@blogger.com
