Dorco Pace 6 Pro 3D Motion Razor System - 1 Handle + 9 Cartridge Set

Having used many Gillette products over the years, along with Schick, Bic and other name brands, these Dorco razors have performed quite nicely in comparison. I like the handle design with the multiple pivot head and the blades have remained sharp and comfortable for several weeks of use. I won't say they are better than the Gillette Fusion 5 or the Schick Hydro 5 blade cartridge, but cost wise they are less expensive and work well enough that I don't mind switching to these for the time being. I've tried many different brands over the years with cartridge style razors, from the Gillette Trac 2 and Atra systems many years ago, to the more modern 3, 4, 5 and more blade systems today. You really don't need more than 3 blades in my opinion, but these higher blade count cartridges do seem to last a bit longer. I still enjoy using DE razors too, but for the times I'm in a hurry and don't want to butcher myself, I'll use a cartridge razor. These have been working nicely so far and I've purchased enough blades to last me at least the rest of the year. Worth a try in my opinion if you're looking for a little less expensive alternative to other name brand products.

Better than Gillette Labs. I have been using these blades since they were Dollar Shave Club, so 8+ years. I recently had a coupon for Gillette Labs and said hey why not, lets try them. After months of using both, Dorco's are clearly better, gave closer, and last longer. I've tried Harry's as well and like these better. Best shave, best price.

My favorite razor. I was a Dollar Shave Club member but started buying direct from Dorco when DSC changed to a different brand.

I figured I would get blades and a new handle because why not. The blades are compatible with pretty much any existing Dorco handle, which means after comparing with my old Pace handle that doesn't have the extra rotation of the "3D motion", I get less razor burn with the *old* handle. If you are already rolling your handle with your fingers because your muscle memory knows what the shape of your face is (i.e. without a mirror, shaving in the shower), that extra flexibility of rotation makes that handling "mushy" and therefore you end up dragging it harder than what your fingers feel.

I am a head shaver. I have shaved my head for well over 10 years. I usually shave every 2 or 3 days. I have gone through many models of disposable and a handful of cartridge razors. I have even tried a few different blades in the leaf razor. These Dorco Pace 6 blades stand at the top for me! I get the absolute SMOOTHEST shaves with this Pace 6 Pro blade and the least discomfort and cuts. I don't even understand how it's possible. These blades make me excited to shave because I know it's going to be such a pleasure compared to what I had been using for years. Let's talk about the 3D Motion handle. The handle does feel nice and doesn't slip out of my hands when they get wet. The way the head can move side to side is neat but I'm not sure if it makes a big difference in practice. It certainly doesn't hurt anything! The most important thing to know about the handle is it holds onto the razor cartridge extremely well. You can shake it as hard as you want and it won't fly off. I have even dropped it on the floor and it was totally fine. If all Dorco products are this good I may try some of the cartridges with fewer blades to see if I can get as good of a shave for a few bucks cheaper. For now though this was a great deal for the best shaves of my life!
