That wall can hold blades for generations, and safely. Putting a sharp ass blade in the trash gets you cut. Sure it could be taped or put in a metal box like they eventually had. But dropping that fucker in the wall was the safest way to dispose of em for a long time.

That's not how the two cases of razor-hole I've personally seen were set up.

The blades were in between the wall and the next wall, down in a box surrounded by pipes and insulation.

I'm sure you're very proud of yourself, but there's still a wall behind the cabinet.

Old safety razors were the greatest option. Then Jews came along and invented the "razor and blades" business model where the razor is cheap but the blades are insanely expensive.

You can't call yourself a man if you can't shave with a safety razor. Modern razors are the literal definition of consumerism.

Perhaps you (and the rest of us) simply lack an understanding of the perspectives and thought processes common to Americans from 1920 to 1970. They used Lysol as a douche. Cigarettes were good for you and soothed sore throats. Thalidomide was very useful for preventing morning sickness in pregnant mothers. Machine guns and flamethrowers were sold in magazines.

They didn’t put the blades there because they wanted to fuck with later generations, they just didn’t consider that anyone would think that cleaning them out was a big issue when they remodeled. Mainly because they, themselves, didn’t think that way.

Once you have the technique down, go for some feather blades. They seem to last me closer to a month. Also ditch that foam in a can crap and get a brush and some real shaving soap. Best part is, all of this is much less expensive for a better experience.

Either way, gentlemen don't use disposable razors. That's just reprehensible. The same goes for canned shaving cream/gel. Absolutely Disgusting.
Straight razors are the patrician's choice, but require skill to shave adequately with. Safety razors are the proper compromise.

What you need:
>1 safety razor (with or without aggression adjustment)
>pack of high quality razor blades (Gillette, Wilkinson, Feather, Astra, Merkur)
>high quality shaving cream or soap (cream can be applied directly to face and lathered with brush, soap requires lathering bowl. Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood is the patrician's choice)
>super badger shaving brush
>styptic pencil
>face balm or cream

It depends on your hair. A lot of the guys that get autistic about this have abnormal hair. They obsess about their perfect shave because it is uncomfortable otherwise.

Most of my folicles are actually three or four separate hairs in a bunch. They get in grown and irritated easily. They are very stout and hard to shave. I can't grow a beard because the hairs split in three or four days and become excruciating. I have a very specific ritual i need to follow. Every other day after I shower i can shave, and i need feathers. The other brands were all noticeably worse. Shaving more often causes ingrown hairs and irritation. Less often causes the hair to split and become inflamed. Shaving without the shower is possible, but it is much easier with it because it softens the hair.

[Anonymous No.1473411]

>>1473378
It's not autistic. 99.9% of shaving creams are utter dogshit. They reek. The Taylor's scents are subtle and refined. Not using a brush to apply the cream is simply nigger-tier beyond the pale. A styptic pencil is something you should probably have in your medicine cabinet in any case.

I was gifted a straight edge razor and shaving cream a couple of years ago, and I agree that it is the superior experience at a lower cost. It does take a bit more preparation and care though, so I don't blame people for wanting convenience and speed.

I use Sharks that I got off of Amazon. 100 blades for $7 (on sale, normally $10.) Single blade razors like that are stupid cheap and you couls, if you wanted, use a blade a day and still save. That said, it's wasteful. I get about 5 really good shaves out of one, and can use them without discomfort for 10-15.

Google "penny loafers"

https://www.daytranslations.com/blog/2013/12/penny-loafers-called-penny-loafers-3568/

>Why the penny, or two pennies, actually?

>So how come the shoes became popularly known as penny loafers? As you know, the slip-ons became very popular for boys and girls back in the day, as sneakers were not yet produced. But during the 1940s and the 1950s, wearers of loafers actually stuck dimes in the lip-like slots on the strap. Mobile phones were not yet available then, and those two dimes were equivalent to the cost of a phone call from a pay phone booth. The tightness of the slots on the shoes kept those precious dimes from getting lost.

They were actually good for two calls.
Ten cents from a pay-phone for local calls.

You're a lot more likely to be gravely injured in an assault in the UK, if you're not black the murder stats can be thrown out, many anglo saxons are immune to AIDS believe it or not, their houses are tiny, so they use less electricity, they actually spend the same on healthcare and have far less effective system, it's just not factored in because it's taxed even if you don't use it. they're comparing apples to cows.
