I wrote about the increasing number of blades on a razor here on Sep 15 2005. Now, the Economist is looking at theMoore’s Law effect on the number of blades in a razor. The write suggests that additional blades follow a hyperbolic curve, not the curve suggested by Moore’s law.

In English, instead of a 14 blade razor in 2100, it will be on shelves within four years.

I am still claiming the TM on the Phlebotomizer – the 40 bladed wonder.

Glad I use an electric myself.
