1. Man-manual
You get a closer shave and don't feel like your hair is getting pulled out. I'd rather use a blade.

2. electric razors just don't cut close enough
They are good when you're in a rush and need a once over.

8. Agreed!
The Schick Quatro sucks, by the way. I got a free one so I tried it, but :puke:

9. Straight-edge is best for wrist-slitting
Electric is best for defuzzing peaches.

11. When I have time, straight edge razor!
Excellent shave, and it's really harder to cut yourself than you'd think.

13. I have a friend
who STILL shaves with one of those fold out straight razors like you would see Floyd use on Mayberry RFD. He sharpens it with his whetstone, and never cuts himself. Of course, he's a big repuke. He also has a doctorate, so he's not a fool.

He's not that good a friend.

14. Man manual, it's faster and better
I used electric for a while but it didn't get all the hairs so it took a while. It was a Norelco.

I prefer to use a Gillette two blade razor instead of the stupid 3 or 4 blade ones. People who use those are tools. And gel instead of foam.

Don't electric shavers give you this after a while?
