Feather AS-D2 Double-Edge Razor

About a year ago I purchased a Feather AS-D2 on a drop and have used it since. I am normally a frugal guy but don't regret the purchase. I used a straight razor for a decade, but the AS-D2 is smooth and nick free like a Gillette Fusion at a fraction of the cost and I can get a very close shave almost like a straight razor at a fraction of the cost. I like the Kai blades. They are similar to the Feather blades but last longer and are a bit smoother with less nicks. As far as value goes, yes their are other great razors. I have an Edwin Jagger. It never gets used. Compared with the reusable plastic double edge razors made by Gillette and Lord that I used in the Philippines the Edwin Jagger is very expensive. They also work great when paired with a decent blade. They cost about 35 or 40 cents including a blade. The bonus is they are super fast to change the blade or clean. If ultimate frugal is your goal they can't be beat. If a fabulous piece of kit that gives smooth, close shaves (for many people) the Feather AS-D2 is tough to beat. For me the improvement in shave quality from the plastic Gillette to the Edwin Jagger is not as great as from the Edwin Jagger to the Feather AS-D2.
