I haven't tried Personnas yet. Maybe next year when I spend another $30 on blades (man I love saying that!)
WHATEVER .... I've worn a full beard since 1969

I'd say it's probably about time for a change.
The video was excellent, but I'm part of the shaving soap/bristle brush/shaving bowl/safety razor club. I buy a new pack of blades... every once in a while?

Holy berkeley you're old!
Does anyone else here use a classic safety razor? I made the switch about 5 years ago and would never go back. It's the best shave I've ever gotten and it's cost effective too. I buy packs of gillette single razor blades for next to nothing and they last a while too. The initial investment was somewhat high - I was in it for over $100 for the razor, good brush, soaps and blades, but it has more than paid for itself by now.
If you want to shave for less than $100, get this brush/bowl/soap and go to the beauty store on the "bad side of town" and while you stock up on hair extensions, pick up a safety razor for $5.

Yeah, there are a number of us that found a way to get the best shave possible, for the lowest price possible. Dig it!!

naw... the beard is a result of a large hate of shaving ... it's only been off for a 6 mo period in the early 80's

If my baby face can handle boar's bristles, than the rest of the Marlboro "leatherface" Men lot on here can handle some damn boar's hair.

that was my first yr/first cruise in the Navy (was 20yo then)
So, now that I own a Volvo...
Do I have to stop shaving?
I'm at 1 Mach 3 cartridge per can of shaving cream. Just tune it up a bit on the strop as needed.
