Has anyone tried it? I researched and found that their supplier is Dorco Razors and bought them much cheaper directly from Dorco. I bought the Joe and Jane package and I am really impressed with the quality of these razors for the money, and my wife is sold too. They were shipped to my doorstep in three days with free shipping, can't beat it.

Yeah, its good. But not great quality. I understand what I am paying for isnt anything I should complain about, but the actual structure of the razor breaks after a few uses for me. The razors dont go dull, they simply start to fall apart structurally, so I have to throw them out.

The handle portion doesnt last very long (in comparison).

But, despite throwing away good blades, you still save a ton of money.

Keep your used disposable razors in baby oil. The blade stays sharper a hell of a lot longer.

I've been a member of DSC for almost two years, and I love it. being in the Navy, the quality of my shave is important, and I have had no complaints from the quality of their product. If you go that route, look into some of the shave creams and balms they also have on the site, they are also fantastic.


Holy shit, that sounded like a paid testimonial.

I can't tell if you're trolling or not....

I use DSC - I like it, good product for the money.

Was wondering about this.
I use the Hydra 5 by schick and love it. Shave 6 days a week, sometimes 7. I can get a full month out of each one, sometimes a little more so it comes down to just over a dollar a week that I am spending.
Not sure for me going to this would be a good deal as I spend on avg less than 5 bucks a month.

Do you trust these razors to take care of your sack?

So do I. Even though I have to admit that I had no idea it was that difficult to buy razors in a store. I've never gotten punched in the jimmy by a hidden spring-loaded boxing glove, at least.

Yes, I shave my face with them from Monday to Friday, then shave my balls on Saturday. After that, it goes in the trash.

It's actually not bad. I get to choose how I look and no one controls that except me.

I'm happily employed and love the job. Just because I don't "shave" doesn't mean I can't keep the beard trimmed (when I want to).

I thought about doing Dollar Shave Club. But then my dad gave me my Grandpa's old safety razor and the old school blades are dirt cheap (I pay $2 for a pack of 10 at Walgreens).

So it ends up being cheaper than DSC. Plus you feel like a man using a shaving brush to put on your cream and a single blade to shave your face.

Don't let my use of DSC confuse you, when I retire from the Navy in a year or two (or three, or whenever I'm finally tired of it), I will stop using the product. I am fucking tired of shaving!
