I recently bought both the Gillette Mach 3 and the Gillette Sensor (I've been a Schick Quattro user for years). I feel like I have more control shaving with the Sensor, but I hate the itself. It feels too skinny. Both the Mach 3 and the Quattro feel better in my hand. I know there are multiple blade options for the Mach 3, but it is available for the Sensor? I'd like something is nice, but not too expensive. Any recommendations? Thanks.
Wish I had more to point you to, but just a quick check shows these. Does that look Sensor cartridge compatible?
scroll down about 3/4 of the way. its the brushed steel handle. there are a few more on the page youll just have to look. its hefty at 4oz to. http://www.thegentsshop.com/store/gillette.html Shavemac makes custom to order handles but by the time you add in shipping you are over $75 Edwin Jagger used to make one but that darn thing was $90 i plan on getting the brushed steel handle at the link above at some point since i like the Sensor just about the best of the cartridges ive used.
Take a look here: http://www.emsplace.com/shaving/razors.aspx Probably the largest selection of Sensor handles available, some of them quite expensive. The ones that are available as the Sensor will have a Sensor radio button, or say "sensor available" in the description text.
you can use both the sensor and sensor excel blades. i, too am (was!) a sensor shaver and never liked the 3(+) razor blade systems - always made my face feel dry/burned honestly, i actually like/don't-mind the first excel shave (with just 1 or 2 days of growth) but after that it goes downhill quickly.
