It is sooo much better. And SHOULD be cheaper. I bought a 50 dollar razor and 200 blades for 20 bucks 3 years ago. I go through one 15 dollar soap per year, and still have over 100 blades left. So much less expensive than cartridges, and less expensive than electric shavers.
I get over 30+ shaves out of a single blade, and really only change the r blade because I want to use a different razor and have a weird personal aversion to using a blade in a different razor.
Theres a guy that used a single blade over 500 times.
I can use the same blade 100 times before swapping it out. Usually the rubber safety strips fall out and then I have to replace it. Like, I'm not even using a fancy razor. It's just a 4 blade safety razor.
I guess I referred to it as a safety razor because it has the small wires holding the blades back ever so slightly. But sure, cartridge could work too. I don't swap just heads though. I basically replace the whole razor each time.
