Hi wet shave dudes,
I’ve been shaving my head with a DE razor for a few years now. I’ve had a few cheap £20 razors, but they don’t seem to last me very long.
On one the butterfly mecanism broke. My next was a 3 piece, which I dropped and the chrome chipped off. They were both Parker razors.
After some research, seems the way to go for durability is steel, but steel razors (e.g. rockwell 6s) tend to be above £100.
I’m not sure I’d be OK dropping that kind of money, so I wanted to ask: is there a good durable DE around £50?
Some razors are marketed as “tripple chromed”. Are they any better?
Cheers
I actually prefer 3 piece.
I can’t attest to the quality but this is one of the razors that shows up when I search “3 piece stainless steel safety razor”
Brass might be a viable alternative as well. It will bend rather than chip.
