One of the things I hate spending money on are razorblades. I have an extremely thick beard growth and I must shave every day ....I do take Sunday off in terms of shaving and Monday I look like a chewbaca. Anyways I use the Mach 3 blades and generally those go for about $20 CDN for 8....sometimes on sale for $16. I go through one blade a week, so that works out to $10 a month. Not a huge expense but you know that the blades probably cost 10 cents each to make so it's a huge rip off. I've tried the more expense Phantom blades and I really like those, but I"m not paying $3 a blade.....no way. Cheaper blades like the Sensor just don't cut it for my beard growth - the nicks and cuts are not worth the savings.
I've read that some people have had luck extending blade life by soaking the razors in mineral oil when not in use, or using one of those razor blade sharpening things on Ebay. Does anyone have any tricks to extending blade life?
