I received my Dorco Pace 7 today, the world's FIRST seven blade razor, the (current) pinnacle of modern technology. I've never used more than a twin blade before and was curious, wanting to give this beast a try.
Of course I'm not the first to try the Pace 7 so I wondered how I could make a review different, thus this thread was born!
Dorco Pace 7 vs Gillette 1903/04 (Pat App For) Double Ring. The latest 2015 tech vs the original Gillette safety razor - or at least as close as I can get.
Comparing the packaging first -
Hmmm, think I'm giving this to the Gillette.
The combatants -
Closer look at those seven blades -
Initially I will be using a Personna Lab Blue, my standard test blade, in the Double Ring. These modern blades are thinner and hang out the ends a little. I'm not using a shim as some people do either.
The process will be to shave one half of my face with each - swapping side each morning.
How do they compare? Well you will have to come back in the morning and find out!
