> I think they intentionally put bad blades in the cheap razors. Oh I think the likes of Gillette do far more devious things when it comes to the life of razors. For instance, I can almost swear that the blades on my Fusion razor seem to wear out much faster than the blades on my Mach 3, Sensor, Presto etc. (I've been nearly a lifelong Gillette razor user) I think what Gillette does is to ensure that the lubricating strip wears out faster, thus causing discomfort while shaving and making one feel as though the razor itself has worn out. http://gliddofglood.typepad.com/the_glidd_of_glood_blog/2012/10/the-gillette-razor-blade-mystery-a-tale-of-skullduggery.html http://gliddofglood.typepad.com/the_glidd_of_glood_blog/2012...
