Taconic Shave's Heavyweight Chrome razor - Compatible with Gillette Sensor Blades - One Sensor Razor Blade Included

This is an excellent razor handle. I really like how it has heft, and feels great in your hand. Most of the handle is made of metal, whereas the top, where the razor cartridge fits in, is made of plastic. However, overall, the razor handle is very weighty (in a good way) and feels great while shaving. For the past several months, I was using the typical plastic handle that I bought on Amazon (the original equipment handle). However, I was getting cut, nicked, and just not getting a close shave. I thought it was the Sensor 3 blades, and somehow they were not made as well as in the past. But then I got this handle. Honestly, the blades feel completely different. I am not sure if it is psychological, but I am getting the best shaves of my life. I think because the handle has some weight and heft, I don't feel the need anymore to put any pressure to shave. As a result, I am sticking to Sensor 3 blades. I have just one issue with the handle. I shave in the shower. Obviously, the handle gets wet and slick with shaving cream, water, etc. There are grippers on the handle at the top and bottom, but nothing in the middle. The middle of the handle is very smooth. A few times, the handle almost slipped out of my hand. I know in other reviews, people said they dropped their handle and it broke. That makes sense. So what did I do? I McGyvered a fix. I just bought a cheap roll of hockey stick tape (the tape you put on the blade, which is pretty water resistant). I literally put two one-inch pieces of tape around the handle, and the handle is now tacky enough that it is very unlikely to slip out of my hand. The roll of tape cost $5.78, and unfortunately, I only used about 2 inches of it, but perhaps a similar cloth tape that you have at home already will do. With that fix, the handle is even better, and perfectly secure in my hand. Please see the pictures attached. All in all, this a great handle. It's a little pricey, but as I said, for some reason this handle seems to shave so much better than those light plastic handles.

Just recently it came to a point that my gillette sensor handle, fell apart after so many years... the plastic started to fall apart so the blade wouldnt sit right... I love this handle and more so the feel and the weight of it... it feels so natural while shaving and there is a good tilt on the blade while shaving... those that used gillette sensor in the past this is a no brainer to purchase.

Awesome product, I ditched the 3 bladed cartridge it came with and bought sensor excel cartridges and wow works amazing. Smooth irritation free shave, good weight and the quality is actually better than I thought it would be. I hope these are available for a long time to come incase I ever need a replacement.

No encontraba para ese tipo de cartuchos hasta que vi este , dudaba por el alto precio pero se ve de lujo , alta calidad , el peso se siente bien y todo excelente

Though the razor looks good with metallic finish, the package came without the blade.
