How many razors could one guy possibly need in his lifetime?

well, considering I shave my face like 3-4x/month now and probably have 25+ razors....I don't know, maybe we could settle on a few per year, just because! lol

The above discussion is all fine and good,  but I for one, would like to buy one of these Yaqi se razors. Wish I could afford an "original" but that's just not a option.

Anyone have a link? Or is it still too soon?

PS  my first post here! Got tired of the excessive moderation on another shave forum.

I’d save my money and buy once, cry once. You won’t regret saving up for a Vector once you shave with it.

If the Vector is still out of your price range, go with the RazoRock Hawk V3.

Personally, I wouldn’t waste the money on a zamak clone that I’d bet my billfold still won’t shave better than the Hawk V3 let alone the Vector.

Just wait a few months. I'm working on this. Or you can buy this crappy thing that will likely break and then you'll be out both the money and the razor. Ever hear the saying "I'm not rich enough to buy cheap tools"?

Edit: Seconded the Hawk. Great low-priced option.

Hmm, does this mean you're working on a budget AC style razor?

It's been in the works for a bit. Still early days, though.

Yes, I've heard that and agree. However, sometimes I'll buy a Harbor Freight tool that I don't have just to try it out. If I like it and it breaks or wears out I'll replace it with a real/good one.

It's funny that just yesterday the mailman delivered one of Yaqi's older style SE razors, the one that takes ½ a standard DE blade. I didn't like it too much. It gave me a close shave but was harsh on my skin. I'll try a different blade in it tomorrow, but don't really expect a different result.  Wink

I do like the Yaqi DOC slant. It's a bit better than my Muhle R41 Twist.
