Something I did on purpose.

I wanted my shaving paraphernalia to reflect my claimed superiority over men in the arena of facial defoliation.

nice. I need to get more razors for my safety razor - been using crappy disposables for a while.

I didn't realize straight razors were $300-ish bucks?!? GEEZ.

Unsolicated Suggestion: I'd avoid the Derby-brand blades. I got a hundred of them a while back because they were $11, but they seem to vary in sharpness, which is really annoying. I had better luck with the Astra ones, which are really cheap on Amazon right now anyway.

I think straight razors aren't necessarily that expensive? A lot of the BoingBoing consumer review stuff kind of exists in a weird New York Times-y universe where $400 is an okay price to pay for stuff you're not sure you'll use much.
