Ha! Sometimes, when I shave every day, one will last for a couple of weeks. If I'm shaving a 2 week old beard, I'll need to use 2 disposable razors. All the while using an old toothbrush to clean away the stubble caught between the blades.
@SW-User That's why I use hair clippers before I shave

Ha! I use ordinary sewing scissors on older beards to trim them to maybe a quarter inch.... even to trim my old man hippie hair. Haven't been to a barber in over two yrs now...

@SW-User Your wife must hate you, using her good fabric shears.

She passed away almost 5 years ago. Perhaps this is the reason I've let myself go.

@SW-User I am so very sorry for your loss :( ex fiancee died in November 2010, even though I stopped being her partner over confessing something heinous to me, I never stopped being her caregiver because deep down I still loved and cared for her.
