Tony,

Check ebay for your old school DE.  I've got a really nice Gillette DE that I use occasionally on my face.  Medicineman could also offer up some advice on the DE's.

I am pretty sure you will find an adjustable DE on Ebay.

Hey Everybody...  8)

Just wanted to say that I really appreciate this forum.  Before I posted my first post, I did a lot of reading (about a weeks worth).  I've definitely learned a lot, but mostly enjoy the atmosphere.

Nevertheless... my favorite razor (since it hit the market) has been the Gillette Fusion.  I enjoy it ONLY for the closeness, but plan to try out the one by HeadSlick.  I'm interested ONLY for the comfort.

Peace...

Nice to see you posting up Socrates.  Though I use the HeadBlade, I just bought the Fusion yesterday after reading great reviews from several others.  Will give it a try this weekend and see if I get as close as I do with the HB.

welcome socrates! the fusion has done me right so far..no complaints on it...i've used the headblade the last 2 days...while i havent nicked myself yet and gotten a just as close shave as my fusion/sensor...i havent gotten use to the handling of it...seems "gimmicky" and slower right now as compared to traditional razors...but we'll see the jury is still out on it for me.

Welcome Soctrates!! I dig the screen name, as Socrates is my favorite of the greek philosophers.  Gadflys unite!

Just keep at it Kajun, the HeadBlade takes some practice.

Kajun, PigPen is right, the HB does take a bit of practice, but I've found it gives the best shave, with the least amount of nicks to the nugget.
