Three blades of lameness.

Overslept yesterday but still needed to shave from the weekend's growth. Had found some Mach 3 cartridges while cleaning the other day and figured I could give that a swing, just to make sure my new safety razor lifestyle was as awesome as I thought.
Verdict? Mach 3 fail. It felt like an ineffectual toy. I went with the grain and, compared to my safety razor with the grain lazy shave it was woefully inadequate. Sure, it takes a few more minutes when I do the full two-way shave, but it has a much better final product with waaaaay less ingrown hair.
