    I only use single blades. All other arrangements are designed to fail by being gunked up with trapped hair.

    I use single blade disposable bics and have no complaints.

        The 2+ blade setups wouldn’t have to. But they are designed such that the blade spacing matches the thickness of a whisker, ensuring they catch hair. Space those blades out another millimeter, and the problem goes away.

        I use one bic for about a year. So about once a decade, I spend $5 on razors
