Does anybody shave with a blade that's not a razor?

I haven't used an actual razor to shave in about 2 years. I use my Kukri instead. What about everybody else?

I use razors. My facial hair isn't thick enough to require something more substantial.

I get a personal shave every morning from Wesley Snipes.

Kukri? Isn't that like a knife? wow man.

I use a razor, that stupid mach 3 buzzing one. Nothing special. ... but damn do I hate shaving. :/ They need to invent something that can just kill off the hair once and for all.

Why exactly would you want to use a Kukri to shave? Or are you talking about some minature baby Kukri?

I have quite the big fluffy beard, myself.

I don't use a kukri because of the thickness of my facial hair. I use it because if you cut yourself it doesn't suck as much. A Kukri is a Nepalese weapon designed for chopping, not slashing. It also covers more area in one stroke.

Ah. Sounds better than my crappy Bic shavers, then!

The new Wilkinson Sword razor has four blades in it! Four!! Never would I have imagined that I'd live to see the day when mankind can put four bits of metal on the end of what is essentaily a stick.
What time to be alive...

I stopped shaving a while ago, and now use a trimmer to get that scruffy stubble look.

Makes me look like a big ol' teddy bear. Men, however, are supposed to have facial hair. It's our plumage, our hijab, our testament to our testicles!

Of course, proper care and maintenance is important. Most men forget that it's hair. It must be washed, conditioned, combed, and everything you'd do to the hair on top of your head. My beard has never scratched a single person.

The Gilette Corporation apparently found out my address and mailed me a free Mach 3 non-vibrating razer for my birthday.

Stalkers. :p

Not quite. His is groomed to look scruffy, and that's why it looks like shit.

I use a straight razor you know the old barber shop version of shaving.

And works just ass good on the more delicate areas too.

I'll shear the 'cheek' beard everyonce in while when it starts to irratate me, or I have to look 'respectable', but the chin goat-a @3" long uncle sam(a little longer right now), stays. But when I'm busy I just leave it, making me look like Grizzly Adams illigitimate slacker offspring.

A shirt is part of our hijab as well ... you ever wear a shirt? How about pants?

Is it just the word "hijab" that makes you shudder? Well, as grandma always said, "Scratch a goy" etc etc.

Hijab means "covering". Nothing more or less. If you wear clothing, whether for modesty or to protect you from the sun, you are wearing hijab.

I don't like to have a full beard. I let it grow until I get the "Clint Eastwood" gritty dirty stubbly beard look.
