  I may need to do the same. This is the second or third trip where I’ve convinced myself that it’s not that big of a deal and it’s worth it to not check a bag.

  I’m less convinced that’s true after this trip. They just feel so damn cheap to use.

    I had to try a bunch of disposeables before I found some that are “fine”.

    Last time I looked at checking a bag it was really expensive round trip. For a big long vacation it’s worth it, but most of the travel I do is short.

    I’m more drawn to cartridges, but limit them to two blades and am naturally drawn towards cheaper ones 😀. “Personna” used to make Twin Pivot Plus, but I’m not sure if that’s still a thing with the rebrand.

      What do you use currently?

        I have a bunch of Personna Twin Pivot Plus, Cien Men two-blade, and for disposables I like Dorco SD507.

        They all share 1 thing in common – not sold in stores in the US haha.

        The Dorco ones I found in a Dollar Tree once, but haven’t seen them since. They’re super mild but great.

        Cien Men I found in the clearance bin at a Lidl, and again, haven’t seen any. I stocked up on them using eBay, and even eBay is dry these days.
