= piece of shit. I've never had a more annoying shave in my life. How many fucking blades have to be put in before the obsession with muliple blades stops?

OK, so it has four blades, with small wire running across them perpendicularly. Whiskers get caught in there and never come out, and the shave is not as close as advertised.

I'm staying with Gillette Mach 3. So far, that's been the best.

Glad to see you back, Clay. Sorry you got lost in the upgrade madness.

I wonder how many blades there will be in twenty years time. When I was a kid double blades didn't exist yet, now there are five.

Consider a shaving brush and real shaving cream (not foam or gel). Makes a difference.

I have a hard enough time getting a close shave that I'd consider using a straight razor if I didn't have to go to work everyday during the learning phase with 1/2" cuts on my face.

The new M3 dual blades, vibrating action, makes for a nice clean shave.

I don't know if it's the same as the Schick Quattro in the US, but I tried the Schick and liked it enough to switch from the Mach 3. Of course, I've also stopped doing a second pass, which I have to do to get really smooth, and that also makes shaving less painful.

I agree with the people who endorse brushes though.
