That could be the edge I need to make me a first rate professional businessman.
Possibly the best onion article ever, because shortly after, Gillette actually released the Mach 5:
Mad TV did a 20 blade razor which isn’t even that ridiculous anymore.
Pretty sure SNL did it first.
5? That’s for babies. I’ve found a 7 bladed razor:

Lol, keep in mind, that article came out 22 years ago, when the onion still had a print edition
They have a print edition again, funnily enough.
Back then you could find it on college campuses and similar places in these weird areas that had vending machines for various newspapers.
Yeah but back then it wasn’t ironic. Okay the paper itself was ironic, but ironically, the fact that it was paper was not ironic.
Can you mount several?
if you shave at all, look into safety razors
yup, since i switched over my facial skin is a lot happier than with this multiblade crap, and it is a lot cheaper too.
Couldn’t agree more. Peak shaving technology, a step in any other direction is a step down (apart from not shaving).
Discovering double-edged wet shaving turned shaving into something I look forward to rather than a chore
exactly my experience as well… I get peeved if it’s a shaving day and I have to rush it
Couldn’t agree more. Far cheaper, easier to clean, blade lasts longer (with proper care), doesn’t tug if you have thicker hair…
I tried it years ago and never looked back.
Yeah one sharp blade is 100x better than 5 dull ones. Plus a nice lather and aftershave just makes me feel great. I still use a mach 3 for my undercarriage when I’m showering, but I love my safety razors and weekly shavette clean cut.
I use safety razor for everything… everything
I was getting razor burn from multiblade razors. Safety razors were the best thing ever for me. I no longer shave, but I still keep it just in case I have to remove my glorious beard
The more blades, the deeper the cut. The first blade pulls the hair up, causing the next blade to cut the hair below the skin level. Causing irritation and ingrown hairs.
Plastic cartridges need multiple blades, though, cause they can’t hold the blades in enough tension to get a good cut otherwise.
I prefer safety dances.
You can dance if you want to.
For safety, ya really can’t beat a baby pool of Nair. But good luck getting that past air defenses.
When they moved the pivot point from the center of the cartridge to the bottom, they lost me. Still using my probably 30 year old Sensor handle and cartridges, and probably will until I die.
Finally a weapon to surpass metal gear!
Best shave I get is from Schtick ST II. Just two blades, small head to get around contours.
I can’t really comprehend why a razor would need more than 2. I use a shavette, so for me 2 is too many.
Because big number is more better.
That’s marketing 101.
Straight blades are great, I can even cut hair with them.
