The Best a Man Can Get

So I know I'm not the first blogger to poke fun at the recent trend with safety razors, but a novel article at Economist.com included this helpful graphic:



Apparently, "shavers are going to get more blades whether they need them or not."

I'm rootin' for the hyperbolic curve. Otherwise, I might not get to see them fit 14 blades on a single razor in this lifetime.


Comments:
Adding yet another blade is truly a dismaying development. In all honesty, I've felt that since the manufacturers went to 3 blades, one should be have been turned in the opposite direction. Though we've been programmed since puberty to shave in one direction, how hard could it be to learn to shave 'up and back?' While we're on the subject, have you ever looked between the blades after you rinse your razor? MIne has yellow, fuzzy stuff living there. Nope, that can't be it, my shaving cream is blue. Then it occurred to me that that flesh eating bacteria thing always seems to start on the legs. Hmmm, I think I'm gonna have to re-examine this whole shaving thing.
