| - | It's sort of like getting on a good riding horse | 0:00 |
| after having ridden a mule. | 0:05 | |
| I get 21 shaves out of the Personna blade | 0:08 | |
| and only about four or five out of the (bleep) blade. | 0:12 | |
| Narrator | That's Personna, | 0:16 |
| the exclusive British processed stainless steel blade. | 0:17 | |
| - | I've gone for 21 shaves or let's say three weeks to, | 0:20 |
| for the Personna and less than a week for the (bleep). | 0:24 | |
| Can't beat that in my book. | 0:26 | |
| - | I got 40 shaves with the first blade, | 0:27 |
| 42 with the second one. | 0:30 | |
| Clean, comfortable shaves all of them. | 0:31 | |
| And they get the beard and they don't get your hide. | 0:34 | |
| Narrator | Every edge uncommonly sharp, | 0:37 |
| custom wrapped to keep them that way. | 0:38 | |
| - | Well I have been using (bleep). | 0:40 |
| But I put that Personna in | 0:42 | |
| and, my heavens, it lasted two or three weeks. | 0:43 | |
| That's almost ridiculous. | 0:46 | |
| Narrator | Better than average? Sure. | 0:48 |
| But if Personna doesn't give you more luxury shaves, | 0:49 | |
| more comfort than any other stainless blade, | 0:52 | |
| we'll buy you (bleep) (bleep) | 0:55 | |
| or whatever blade you think is better. | 0:56 |
