I was asked by some viewers to try out the new Gillette Sensor 3 Sensitive Razor and while looking to order one off the internet, I found they also have a new version of my favorite cartridge razor The Sensor Excel.
I want to see how this new version compares with the original.
Note, the new cartridges do fit in the original model. I had the cartridge upside down.

I’ve been rocking my Excel lately. I have a handful of handles from back in the day and the blades work just fine.

For my quick shave, it's the Gillette Mach 3. Good feel; and the blades do well. Plus, the Mach 3 was given to us in the Military. I got comfortable with the performance from the Mach 3 Razor. Against the grain? Well, my skin is too sensitive for that, but with a DE razor I can. For the quick, down and dirty, it's the Gillette Mach 3.

The Sensor was my first razor. I bought one out of nostalgia, and it's still great. I actually use the Sensor or Atra quite often for getting around my ears as a head shaver. Personna sells Atra cartridges for less than their DE blades ($15/100). My '77 Atra is more sturdy than my '77 black beauty, and both are more sturdy than my '77 back, knees, and shoulders!

I missed you Ken, please enhance the frequency of your videos!!! You see how cheaper made are the newer products nowadays compare what they were in the past. For instance the car toys I was playing as a kid back in the 80s were robust with metal parts, now they're all plastic and cheap. Like you I love proraso green my first decent soap when started, never had a bad shave using it. And as far the lather goes do as you like. Happy 4th of July !!!

@davorsixstrings1642 24 дня назад

Great one, Ken! I still believe both handles are compatible with all the Sensor blades, no matter old or new. I think in some markets they sell Sensor Excel with the new handle, the same as in this video. Some even provide both 2 and 3 blades cartridges together.

@kensurfs 24 дня назад

I tried again, and you are right. The blades do fit new and old. I must have had the blade upside down

@davestelling 24 дня назад

A pleasure to see you this fourth of July, Ken. I have one of the original Sensor shavers, I liked it very much - but I grew tired of the cartridges ever increasing expense - so, back to the ol' reliable "D.E." for me. And, my usual sapone - the green Proraso. I've yet to try their Proraso after shave, but am eager to. That's so cool about your dog's natural response to the loud fireworks, looking forward to the next visit here in The Shave Den! Thanks, and take good care...

@JimG7755 24 дня назад

Hey Ken! Just a follow up, the blades are interchangeable! The new Sensor's blade fits the old handle, the vintage cartridges fit the new handle. You can use either cartridge on either handle! I agree, the new handle is too light! They need to add some weight.

@kensurfs 24 дня назад

I had the cartridge upside down. It fits perfect now👍💈💈👍

@JimG7755 24 дня назад

@kensurfs Yes, I figured you did. The locking mechanisms are the same on both handles! Hang onto that old handle though, it's worth much nowadays!

@terrym1065 24 дня назад

"The blade is doing its job".... if you say so Ken. Shame that so many brush makers have gone out of business, Shavemac, Semogue, Thater, and others. Hope the trend doesn't continue. Have a great day.

Hey Ken! I still have both my original Sensor and Sensor Excel razor from 1989 and 1993 respectively. I also have both in unopened packaging. I also have several of each on those original handles. They are very pricey, even used ones, on ebay!! I purchased that new one. It's mostly plastic which reduces the weight significantly. I find that it shaves very good though. I haven't seen where I could purchase replacement blades. I am under the impression ebay or Amazon would have them. I'll have to do my research. Thanks for reviewing this new Sensor! JimG. P.s. The new Sensor fit my vintage cartridges just fine! Are you sure you didn't try to install an old cartridge upside down? Let me know.

@Mvendrel 24 дня назад

I am most fond of the Gillette Skin Guard on a metal travel handle by Parker. This has only 2 blades and they are spaced so as to not have hysteresis. Parker also makes a short metal travel handle for Mach 3 carts that’s my 2nd choice for a carry-onable razor.
