It's not what they used to be.
It should be noted that this review is for the pace 7II. I'm a huge fan of the original pace 7, and if the blades are still the same, which the picture shows in the other listings than I'm still a fan... However if they've all changed to the new style, that's a different story....<br /><br />Exactly what I feared. The move Amazon would be their downfall. After receiving the new pace 7II handle, my fear was confirmed. Handle just didn't have the feel and weight of my last one. And after the first shave something felt off. Handle feels horrible in my hand, and I can't seem to get the grip right. It's a shame, because dorco was so good for so long and now I'm stuck with 24 cartridges from the website sale before they transitioned. I'll definitely be looking for a new razor company.<br /><br />Update: originally I was bummed about the handle. Well, I used one of the new cartridges, and the shave was horrendous. Shave was not smooth, grabbed my hair, irritated my skin... which has never happened... first the handle now the blades. As they say, all good things must come to an end. And this is definitely the end for dorco razors. Once these blades run out, on to something else.<br /><br />2nd update: luckily I have the original pace 7 blades still and after a couple of weeks, the handle is getting easier to use. If you are considering this razor, select the original pace 7 instead of the II, your face will thank you. The blades are still garbage, but the handle is usable.
