After shaving for over a decade using popular cartridge razors, I prefer to use a double edge safety razor. From my 6 months experience in using a DE safety razor, I am able to shave over a weeks worth of stubble a lot easier compared to a cartridge razor because the DE safety razor doesn't clog as easily due to it having space around its single blade.
This DE safety razor does not have any rubberised parts. This is a positive aspect compared to popular cartridge razor brands that have rubberised grips on the handles, which corrode over time.
When purchasing a DE safety razor, you are paying up front for the razor, but the blades are very affordable. This can be the opposite with popular cartridge razor brands, where the razor is quite affordable, but the cartridge blades can be expensive due to their design. From my experience, the blade on the DE safety razor lasts just as long as its cartridge razor counterpart.
The DE safety razor is now my razor of choice when shaving due to its design, functionality and aesthetics.
