Straight razors certainly have a nostalgic appeal and in the right hands give an excellent shave. But I will emphatically add that there was a very good reason someone took the trouble to invent the safety razor, and it had not so much to do with sharpening... the 'nicks' could require suturing!
On the other hand, the Mach7 (or whatever ridiculous number of blades we're up to now) is pure marketing hype.
