Razors. Back in the day you could buy a razor and expect to shave with it every day for the rest of your life. I still have my first razor, a Gillette Slim Adjustable and it still shaves as well as it did the first day I brought it home. The heft and balance are something those new plastic razors and multi bladed monsters can never match.
Thankfully, internet shopping allows me to buy blades from around the world and now I can enjoy my old razor again.
Its so annoying how hard it is to find blades for safety razors. Twice now I've flown somewhere with no blade in my razor hoping to find blades at the destination and had to either buy a disposable or get blades sent to an amazon locker.
Blades are a quick internet trip away to order. But for the little travel I do, I either skip shaving if it's a short trip, pack an electric, or bring a cheap Bic disposable to use. I have packed a cheap safety razor and brush and soap in my Doff bag for special occasions, but that's way too much effort as a rule.
