UPDATE 3-Gillette unveils five-blade razors with trimmers

Stock Market News and Investment Information | Reuters.com

Do you ever get the feeling that straight-blade razor manufacturers have gone insane? ............. ;-)

I mean ... how much does it take, to say ... "Let's add another blade"

I don't follow it that closely, but I seem to recall the Mach3 razor cost about $750 million US, to develop.

And a tiny microchip in my straight razor ... to tell me when the battery is running low ..... hmmmm ...... it also does voltage regulation and timing of the pulses,
that vibrate the razor.
But it almost seems the purpose in life, of both the chip AND the battery, it to justify each other's existence.

Occam! --- Patron Saint of the Razor Industry --- We beseech thee
to bestow some sense upon the Razor Makers "!!!!!" ...... ;-)

Yeah... Afraid so ...

This reminds me of a Gruesome piece of comedy I saw on Mad TV on time, about the Mach 13 razor ... very bloody ... I think they were getting past the bone at one point ...
......... :-/
Then SNL "borrowed" this idea, and later came up with the Mach 25 razor ...

Funny in concept, but the blood squirting, doesn't exactly appeal to me as humor ....
