About a year ago I switched to a straight razor with disposable single edge blades. I can get a pack of 100 Shark Stainless Steel blades for just over $5, and I usually change them out every 3 shaves or so. I skip a day every now and then, so all of my shaving needs are taken care of for $5/year.
After a week of practice, the straight razor is just about as fast as any typical razor, much closer shave, and less irritated skin.
