In the middle 1960's, frustrated with the aerosol cans of goo being sold
as "shaving cream", I began using "old fashioned" shaving soap, in a
cup, applied with a soft specialized brush.
 
In the late 1970"s, when Gillette retired the "Super Blue Blade" brand
and moved exclusively to stainless steel razor blades that seemed
already to be dull at first use, I obtained an antique "cutthroat"
straight razor along with the required accessories and, after a fairly
brief learning period, discovered the means to a truly close shave.
 
Now, however, I am incapable of the finesse required to control the
sraight razor safely and have reverted to the old Gillette adjustable
handle and double-edged blades.
 
Which leads me to the request: Can anyone direct me to a source for
truly sharp double-edged razor blades? IME those expensive auto-clogging
multi-blade dispozos being marketed as shaving implements nowadays just
don't make the grade.
Thanks,
