Gillette Gillette mach3 sensitive men's razor handle + 5 blade refills

My husband has sensitive skin and always ends up with razor bumps so figured I would get this for him to try. So glad I did! Razor bumps are a thing of the past. It doesn’t cut his skin and just glides across while giving him a close, smooth shave! Great product for a great price!

When I was young and lovely in '98, I chanced on what was then a fairly new razor, the Mach 3 from Gillette. Trials with dozens of other shavers during the in-between years takes me back to the M3. In my opinion it outperforms all else. More as an enthusiast than anything, I opted for this green ver. v. the generic M3. It turns out this shaver confers an enhanced lubrication strip--nice, but the base design is what makes it a winner. The metal handle features a textured rubber grip lending a sense of quality. After a debacle using a Harry's shaver, I came to appreciate Gillete's approach to solid design, namely, the handle-head connection. I don't recall one instance of the head detaching in use, keeping in mind I don't shave with any creams or lubes, only a spritz of alcohol when useful. The rubber really hits the rd with the cartridge itself. The M3 has always sported fine blades to last a good damn while. My last M3 cartridge prior to these was on track to last me a year. That's right--a *year*--b/f the shaver got stolen. (Update: Proof is in the pic; this is the replacement Mach3 cartridge head I've used for 12 mths. Note wear on rubber skin guard signaling long use.) It's possible to get that sort of mileage from a quality shaver provided one thoroughly cleans the head right after each use. Gillette's design allows a generous amt of water to hit the blades from the back (where you should be aiming) to flush out gunk. I often lightly run a bristle with this after a heavy shave. Then I do a quick strop and dry the cartridge for storage. Glad to be back with Gillette, I'm done riding the train of alt.-market razors. Disposables will always be what they are, while the dbl-razor movement will likely peter out. For guys who can ably wield a barber's blade, I say power to them. As I happily rediscovered in the Mach 3, the sweet spot is a three-blade head coupled to a solid handle, giving an ideal balance of price v. performance.

Good balance between a great shave and price
