The other piece of this is that there are a wide variety of safety razor blades. You should get a variety pack if you make the switch until you find what works best. Some are very sharp (which actually isn't always good), some less so. Some are more flexible than others. You need to find one that fits your skin and hair.

Good point, and I failed to mention that as part of the experimenting. After going through the variety pack, I ended up finding that Astra Stainless were the best for my skin/hair combination, and Astra Platinum was second.
