    I’m a Gillette DE guy, but to shave my arms I have been using cheap disposable razors. I’m wanting something better quality metal handle, a Gillette, USA made, 1 blade preferably max of 2 blades, and that has cheap replacement heads. Looked at the Astra, track II, but not limited to them. Need help on what is the best razor for what I’m looking for. Thank you

    I'd ask Why bother, but then I remember I periodically shave my head.

    I'd say track II

    I’m thinking of shaving my head also. The old my daughters get the less hair I have up there.

    The trac II is made in the US?

    From what I've read, the blades were made in Brazil. But now they are made in Poland.

    I have no idea about how good after market blades are, but Amazon sells two ten packs of Gillette blades for $20.00.

    I use Personna blades in DE and Injector razors and never have had a problem with them. They are some of my favorite blades. If these are Personna blades, I'd give them a try, especially at that price.

    It's a good deal for those blades.
