Many years ago, on Saturday Night Live, there was a fake ad for a three-bladed razor. The tagline, as I recall, was "Buy it - because you'll buy anything!"

I was deeply amused, yet a little disturbed, when the real triple-bladed razors appeared... and then, when Schick came out with the Quattro, I realized to my horror that there would, indeed, be a blade-number arms race.

Now I can only sit, slack-jawed, and wait to see where it ends. :)

Our 1,347 blade, form-fitting, full-face razor, the new Schick "Face Killer" is the absolute ultimate in shaving technology. One quick flick of the wrist is all it takes to get the closest, and fullest, shave you've ever gotten.

Slack, but remarkably well-shaven, jawed....

I find it oddly reminiscent of Troll's mockery of Apple's OS 12, with new Rotating Wheel Technology, completely removing the need for a keyboard...

This freakin kills me, though. :)

"our nano bots actually wage an all out war on your skin, seeking out follicles, and destroying their very essence. Now that's a close shave!"

My uncle had been on the design team for Gillette since the 80's. Of course he just retired so no more free razors at Christmas time. I will have to ask him about the 5 blades. :)
