I have been shaving with the same merkur 33C for about 7 years using Gillette Silver Blue blades with no issues. One of my jobs requires me to stay away from home 1 night a week and 1 weekend a month. I decided I needed a full travel size kit so as not to have to bring all my normal stuff each time I was staying. I picked up a maggard travel size handle with a V3 standard head. I tried it the other night using my same blades and it was the worst case of razor burn I have ever had. Since I have not fallen down the shaving hole like some I really don't venture out from what works besides soap or AS. Do some razors work better with certain blades? Has anyone used the Maggard V3 head and your thoughts?
