    The repair has went pretty well. Of course it helps when they pull all the stops and offer huge cash bonus to the contractor for getting it done early. I had to travel into the city yesterday. It was a mess, so I am sure things will be better Monday. Maybe the businesses in the area can recoup some of their losses as well.

    I'm curious as well.

    I've seen a few people say they get a better shave from the plain ST-301 as opposed the the Prime Platinum. My first impression is that I can believe that. I suspect that the Teflon coating probably makes the blade more generally appealing, but at the cost of dialing it back from optimal sharpness.

    I'd really love to know if the grinds are different between the three blades or if it is just coatings/treatments.

    @NCoxSTL Glad to see you back and feeling better. Take care of yourself as you ease back into the daily routine.

    Yes, those are the ones. Not using the cartridge in my PAL Case in the picture (but maybe I should).

    True... it may be that the Dollar Store Dorco is one of those blades that is actually better in a shavette or "similar". :)

    Paul, I'm glad you got your legs shaved in the dark. This certainly counts as a MAYhem shave. Maybe this would help 'till the landlord shows up.
