I grow a beard for the snowboarding months it keeps the chill away nothing gay about that just using my body
U know what's gay though? Those razors with a million blades. And canned shaving creams. They're fucking gay and I bet you use them because you're too much of a fag to use a single blade like your non gay grandfather.
Many years ago I purchased a safety razor around Christmas. Cutting with a single, decent blade is vastly superior and cheaper. I determined it was the best thing I bought all year. I wanted to get a straight razor, but my barber talked me out of it.

I tried a straight razor maybe a dozen times. It is more trouble than it is worth. Easier to get a shavette and skip the whole strop/sharpening deal. Personally I've settled on a Rex Konsul Slant (adjustable), Voskhod blades, and a Nivea Body shave stick. Can't beat it.
per graph, on 2nd shave voskhod performs better than feather. likely because feather doesn't have the coating but focuses on a sharp edge which wears down fast
Also like polsilver, but voskhod felt a bit better for me. Lord, Asco, Big Ben are all ok also.
Shark, Rockwell, Derby, Persona, Wilkinsons are shit for me.
These days it tends to be. Having a beard, or not having a beard, has always a statement. When having one is common among men, it sends a statement, and people see it as effeminate. When it's uncommon, it's sometimes seen as a statement of age, maturity, or family status as a patriarch. These days, it's nothing more than an affectation or a style, intended to show off one's ability to grow a beard and the desire to have people admire it.
I'm decades older than many people here, and I started growing a beard when I was 19 because I fucking hated shaving. My statement with it is that I don't give a fuck about what people think about it because I'm man enough to be secure with myself.
Depends. If you keep that shit on point, you can have an epic beard, if you're just letting shit grow on your face, you're a faggot and should choke on your bird's nest.
If that shit looks bushy, and unkempt, fuck you, if you're deep into thought, and trying to figure something out, you're going to stroke that fucker and it's going to show. That's passable, it shows you're about your business. Again if you're just letting shit grow on your face, fuck you, trim that shit, at the very least.
Exactly. I don't know how many of these 35 year old man-children I see. All followers, all insecure, all play video games everyday and talk about it all the time. All of them have excessive tattoo's yet none have seen any action or done anything that warrants a tattoo. Completely self absorbed and raised by single mothers. It's laughable.

I'm almost through the box of Feathers. I'll have to see if I can find some of these and try them out.

I found them by looking at a website where some dude did sharpness tests using a scale and a piece of string across various brands. It may have been this one: https://www.bayviewinformer.com/double_edge_safety_razor_blades.html

Usually do 2 or 3 shaves with my blades.

Never tried Rockwell or Persona and my experience with the other brands accords with yours.
