Under a microscope, a razor edge is
seen to consist of hundreds of tiny teeth.
When these teeth are in alignment, the
blade is sharp. But the very first shave
with a new blade bends these teeth out
of alignment, and the blade begins to lose
its edge.
With most safety razors, there is no
way to smooth the delicate teeth back
into alignment. The original smooth, fine
edge of the blade grows rougher with
every shave.

get from one razor blade before it

On the first day, when the blade is
fresh, your shave is smooth and cool.
But very soon your beard begins to dull
the edge. Soon the pulling and scraping
become unbearable. You throw the old
blade away — slip a new blade in your
razor—and begin the same round again.
