Find the blades you like and it definitely will. All blades are not the same, and what I like, you might not. Try a few different ones before you buy anything in bulk. I forgot about it in my other post, but I like Feather a lot too. Toss-up for me between Feather and Blue Bird. Found a box of 100 of each of those on Amazon for $20. I pretty much have a 10 years supply of razors now for a total investment of about $50, lol. Good blades too - better than any of those 4 or 5 blade ones that cost $5 each.

Hey Josh66, I have just 5 right now so I'll definitely buy some blades online.

Cheers :)

One month has passed since I started using it. I feel like leaving here two notes for who is just starting out with those razors:

1 - I love the crisp sound of the blade that cuts my beard. Close the faucet while you're shaving, this way you save water and enjoy the sound of it;
2 - Use both sides of your razor. I know you already told me, but since I was accustomed to the disposable one, I used just one side. Realizing I have two sides makes all the difference. It's quicker and I need to wash it less frequently. To make an allegory, it's like using both sides of your S rake! Flip it over every now and then.

Cheers :)
