For the record I am not knocking what others use to groom themselves. I just found what works for me, and will recommend it. So please don't take what I am posting as an attack or criticism. Each to their own. Peace.

I'm not taking it as an attack or criticism at all.  As we said before, whatever works.

I know. I just put that out a general disclaimer. I appreciate your help with other subjects.  :)

Yep, there was a knob on the handle that was supposed to adjust for the type of beard that you had. I kept mine on "9"...like I said it was an upgrade. Wikipedia has a picture of one.

Wow, thank you all :) Extremely informative.

I've had a bit of a crappy week, so yesterday morning I made an appointment with a male grooming/barbershop type place in London for today. I checked and they use Merkur razors, so if I can keep my eyes open (and my heart beating), I'm going to try to watch how they do it. So I'm getting a head shave, face shave, face massage and body massage, all for the princely sum of £155 (which is around 240 of your yankee doodle dollars :)), and hopefully I'll come back with my head looking like a boiled egg (after the shell has been removed, obviously).

I dont usually spend that type of money on myself but I'm a little down in the dumps and I need a pick-me-up, so wish me luck as you wave me goodbye :D I'll let you know how it goes.

Ok I know what your talking about now. Do you still shave with those types of razors?

Slynito:
After my old Norelco couldn't hack the job I sprung for a Panasonic and have never looked back. They are the best for buzzin', but when I want it super close I use the cold steal of a Fusion. My latest Panny is the "Lima Alpha 63" and it is the best by far of the 3 I've owned. Pannys Rock!   Right on!
