It is, however, hard to find these sorts of razors. If you go into a shop to buy a razor, you will almost certainly not be able to buy one - but you will be faced with a wide range of very similar cartridge razors. The double edged razor has become a product that you can only buy on the internet, and which you will only buy if you know that it exists. This was true -- in about 2010. My local CVS has three or four DE razor models available plus packs of blades, and has for several years now; it's been interesting to watch the market switch. I stopped razor-shaving a while ago, and just use a corded trimmer without a guard to set neck and cheeklines when i trim the rest of my beard. edit: In fact, a lot of examples listed in this piece have a similar pushback story. This is encouraging! - cast iron pans are ridiculously available, cheap, and heavily marketed. - shaving soap pucks (and bar shampoo, upscale bar soap, etc.) over body wash are pretty hyped at the moment. - 2.5 kilo bags of loose-leaf brand teas are available widely (taylor's of harrowgate, etc) as well as from more specialty shops. - everyone i know shits on pod coffee machines (though they are widely used, alas; some shifts towards compostable pods have been made) - retrogrouch cycling, which never left, has been boosted with "party pace" cycling advocates. eTAP is certainly here to stay, but quality mechanical components are and will remain widely available. smart TVs, food deserts, and bullshit food subscription services are harder to rebut :/
