Ok - so I was organizing my shaving paraphernalia (my entire bathroom, actually) and came across an unopened package of M3 blades.
It's been about 6 mos since I've used the M3, having fully embraced the DE shave of my youth. But those blades were already there, and I didn't want to "waste" them, so I popped one into my old M3 handle.
Well, I've gotta say that it produced an epic shave! I used my usual KOS gel, letting it set up for a minute or so. I had to re-adjust to the "long stroke" method, but honestly, it's a great, great shave - no irritation, smooth-as-glass skin.
Now that I have a new Merkur Futur with a bajillion DE blades at my disposal, I don't know what to do! I do know I'm not about to shell out for M3 blades once this pack is done, however.
