Shave clubs

[garryb]

Has anyone used one of the online shave clubs. Looking for a reasonably priced razor and looking at Cornerstone, Dollar Shave Club and Harry's, just looking for some honest feedback thanks.

the first rule of shave club is, dont talk about shave club

[SydneyBridge]

Tried Harry's but didn't like it, will stick to using hugely expensive razors, but worth it for better shave

I use cornerstone.
Nice razor body, chromed with your initials on.
Blades seem to clog easily and blunt quickly.
Their shave gel is excellent though!

Tried cornerstone, not very good

Have taken to using the Gillette 3 blade disposable things, cheap as chips and do a good job

[alorotom]

I use Bic ShaveClub. Been using them for around a year now with zero issues and great service / results

Tried Harry’s, ShaveKit and Cornerstone and wasn’t impressed.

Shavekit here - mighty impressed with the blades, especially the life of them.

Beard... so much easier.

[Chainsaw Rebuild]

I moved to a DE safety razor, brush and soap; its a better shave, its miles cheaper for blades and shaving gel/cream and it produces less waste. Totally worth switching.

Boots 3 blade. Cheap as chips, strong as iron.

Use them on my head these days... used Gillette's finest and also tried cornerstone (cr@p)... Boots work well, and last. Good blade gap to mitigate clogging too.

Single blades give a finer shave I'm sure... but for ease, and safety...

Thread title didn't deliver as expected (hoped).

OH has Harry's, reckons it's the best shave he's had, and he's tried quite a few. Looks unpopular above though!

[RammyMP]

I’ve been using Harry’s, not that impressed, going back to Gillette when I run out of blades.

I've had one since 1967. Monthly visit to barber, no hassle whatsoever.

Subscription model for inferior product heavily marketed as something special = st loads of profit.

[toastyhamster]

Bearded Colonel have just moved to a new razor design which doesn't clog or blunt as quickly, my current blade is on three weeks and still going. Think they've made a mistake.

They may be inferior and making shed loads of money but getting a reliable supply of any sort of blade from our local shops is a nightmare, local supermarket can go a couple of weeks without and Gillette blades in that match a handle.

Tried Amazon, got dodgy quality so presumed counterfeit, which made me try the subs model. Works for me, what's the issue? I'm spending less a year than I would on Gillette and I'm also using less razors and get access to better soaps/brushes through their Jermyn St links.

Sure, I could be like my Dad and use Palmolive cream and Bic disposables for half the price, but I'd also hate shaving and have the rash to prove it.

Muhle R38. Will last your lifetime.

Packs of standard razor blades about a quid for 10.

Done.

I use Cornerstone, works well for me, you can delay deliveries if you wish, I usually get a delivery of 5 heads every 2 months
