So far I tried the old Schick Xtreme 3, the new one with “fat” handle, and Equate 3-blade “Xtreme wannabe” from Walmart.
The old Xtreme, despite - or perhaps due to - extra flex, seems to have the best combination of shave quality and comfort.
The new Xtreme is more rigid (the handle connection to the blade doesn’t flex), but feels a little harsher and shaves the same. I also don’t really like the weird shape of the handle, but I could live with it.
The Equate is the only cart to ever give me weepers. It’s far more rigid and very sharp and I did not use enough caution with it.
Will keep rotating them. At any rate, I am all set for at least a year now.
