5.0 out of 5 stars I love mach3
Although these blades are marketed for men, I am a woman and love them more than the Venus "women's version". If you like the Venus handle though these blades will clip right on, I love it. And talk about long lasting- I kid you not: I shave my armpits every time I shower- almost everyday, and it is sick but I have used the same blade for weeks and weeks! I don't...

2.0 out of 5 stars Why do they get dull so fast?
When I bought my first Mach 3, it worked great, and the initial blade lasted for about three weeks. The refills that came with it lasted similarly long.

Then I bought refills, and each blade was dull within a week and a half.

About two years ago, I found a place on the Web that sold cryonically-treated razor cartridges (you can Google for...

2.0 out of 5 stars Why do they get dull so fast?, January 4, 2005

This review is from: Gillette Mach3 Cartridges , 8 cartridges (Health and Beauty)
When I bought my first Mach 3, it worked great, and the initial blade lasted for about three weeks. The refills that came with it lasted similarly long.

Then I bought refills, and each blade was dull within a week and a half.

About two years ago, I found a place on the Web that sold cryonically-treated razor cartridges (you can Google for "cryogenically tempered Mach 3 razor"). They were slightly more expensive than most Web retailers, but they last at least three times as long... I'm just now running out of them (I think I bought 32, and gave eight to my dad).

Anyway, I only posted this because these cartridges popped up as the top recommendation on my home page. Weird.

1.0 out of 5 stars Please Please Please Do not buy this item, March 8, 2009
By I. London (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
1) The packaging color was slightly faded. (1st red flag)
2) The blade did not snap on my handle securely (2nd red flag)
3) Blades did not shave but rather pulled my facial hair out (3rd red flag)

The **REAL** mach 3 blades are fabulous, these are clearly of a lesser build quality.... Stay away. Currently seeking a refund. Please read the other reviews.

Bought from Infinite-Surplus...boooooo!!!

***Update***
I was given a full refund no questions asked. Hope Infinite-Surplus find, remove and replace these blades with official Mach 3 blades.

1.0 out of 5 stars Its like shaving with sandpaper, April 3, 2009
By Jeremy Finley (Columbus, Ohio) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Be careful!! These are not Mach3 Turbo blades, which are much smoother than these Mach3. It was like night and day going from the Mach3 Turbo to this. I would not buy these again, because even with a new blade from this pack it was the equivalent of a Mach3 Turbo blade that I had used for 2 weeks.

I don't recommend that, but you've gotta do what you've gotta do. Mach3 may be on the expensive side but they last longer and work better (very smooth shave) than any blade I've tried.

1.0 out of 5 stars It really is like shaving with sandpaper, May 16, 2009
By Lee (Lubbock, TX United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I had the same experience as the previous reviewers: I received fake blades. It felt like my hair was being pulled out rather than cut. And the "lubricating strip" was just a piece of plastic. The blades I bought were sold by Reflections. I would recommend to only buy these blades if they are sold by Amazon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Mach3 Blades For An Unbeatable Price, April 9, 2010
By Jill K. Harness (San Diego, CA United States) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Gillette Mach3 Cartridges , 8 cartridges (Health and Beauty)
I saw that some of the reviews were complaining that their blades were counterfeit, but that seems to be a problem with the seller, not the product itself. The listing here is for real Mach3 blades, which is exactly what I received and they worked great.
I have been a fan of Mach3 for years and temporarily switched to a newer razor, only to find that in ten years, there is nothing as gentle and as effective as my trusty Mach3.
If you get counterfeit blades, notify Amazon and complain to the seller. When you buy, check the seller's rating first. But don't let bad experiences with sellers lead you away from a great product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good deal!, February 27, 2010

This review is from: Gillette Mach3 Cartridges , 8 cartridges (Health and Beauty)
I am very happy with the blades and get a clean shave every morning. I use them for about 2 weeks each, then it's time to change or I get cuts and a bad shave. Wish I could go 2 months like one of the reviewers here - that would save me a lot of money! I have steel wool for a beard, so 2 weeks is the max. Fast shipping, good price, very satisfied. Two thumbs up!

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the same, perhaps counterfeit or reject blades, December 8, 2009

I have used the standard Mach 3 blades since they came out (several years), and tried to save money by purchasing these. Bad choice: As with others, the packaging was faded, and although the blades look the same, they are NOT. A normal new blade would glide over my face, easily removing any facial hair. These blades purchased from Amazon are worse than a 2 month old used blade; right out of the package they scrape across my skin and pull the facial hair. I suggest avoiding these at all cost!

5.0 out of 5 stars Half Price on Gillette Mach3 Blades, August 24, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Gillette Mach3- Replacement Cartridges, 8 Cartridges

Received the shipment on time and the blades work fine.
The best news is that the blades cost less than at a regular store.
A local grocery store had these same blades for more than double the price that I paid for them on-line with your company.
Thanks E-World Direct Inc for being there with Amazon.com.
