Alternative to Fusion Razor

[palestra5]

Hello, I hope everyone is doing well.  Do you guys have an alternative to the fusion razor that is cheaper.  I can't believe how expensive those things have gotten.  Any help would be appreciated.

Here is an example:  You can purchase a 100 pack of Astra SP blades for under $12.  Try buying
100 Fusion blades and you will go bankrupt.

PLUS IT is the most challenging and fun way to shave.  Shaving the traditional way makes shaving
more enjoyable and relaxing.

War is right. DE shaving is vastly cheaper but you do need to learn how to use one. I am still learning.

IVe been using Bic Hybrid3 and like as well as any Gillette over priced  multi blade.

Thanks for the input guys.  The Bic hybrid looks very interesting.  I might have to give it a look.

Fusion blades are definitely pricey.

Just from a cursory search, they run about $3.25-ish per cartridge when buying the bulk 12-pack. Perhaps consider a Harry's razor.  Like the Fusion, it's a 5-blade cartridge. The price per cartridge is about $1.60 when buying the 16 pack.

I got a gift set as a present last Christmas and tried it out a few times. I thought it shaved just as well as a fusion or mach (IMO).

Like Goatee and Warhawk, I use and prefer a DE.  But, if searching for a 5-blade alternative to the Fusion, then maybe Harry's could be worth a look.

Similar to fusion, but much lower cost, is the Persona M5 Magnum.

Have you tried Dorco razors?

Fusion has been priced out of my wallet.  I now use a knockoff from Dollar Shave Club
