By Scott Bailey
Nice set, but don't expect it to last very long. My bowl is rusting and the mast is corroding where the bowl mounts after a year and a half.

By Baillergeon
I like to shave. After spending money on supposedly better shave products, including Injector-types, straight razors, and double-edged razors, my raw skin and mangy-looking beard always crawls back to Mach 3. I decided to make the morning ritual a little nicer, and embrace the multi-blade hype so often derided by razor aficionados, and ordered this kit. The price was right and it looks even nicer in person.THE BRUSH is a badger hair brush that works up a nice lather...better than several boar brushes I have used. There is a musky (?) smell at first, but I sprayed the brush with rosemary water, and the smell has diminished. Maybe after a few more days the smell will dissipate. It's not awful, but it's not pleasant, either.THE CUP is just a metal cup. I used Kiss My Face shave cream and a squirt or two works fine for my two swipes. I also just scoop the cream with the brush and lather my face, instead of mixing in the cup.THE HANDLE is nice and fits the Mach 3 (obviously.) An added bonus is the weight heavier than the standard Mach 3 handle and I do not need to press down as much. Even better, the pivot is more angled and flexible, which helps provide a closer, more exact shave. My sideburns do not end up chewed in spots, and my neck area is as smooth as the face. The pivot angle helps me get a shave as close as a straight-razor in a barbershop.

I read through all of the reviews listed below. I would like to point out that the only complaints I read were, 1. The bowl is starting to rust after a year and a half. Well that's a long time but the deal is, this is a nice shave set. I personally clean mine and dry it off after every use. If you do so, you will never see rust on your set. 2. I read a complaint about some sort of reaction to the soap? I find that hard to believe because if the soap is harsh enough to eat the bowl, you would likely feel discomfort on your face as well. At any rate I'm sure it boils down to maintaining your kit. If you are classy enough to use one you are certainly classy enough to clean one up. I personally am impressed with the quality of this set. The badger hair brush whips up lather better than I ever thought it would. It takes a few trys to get it down to a science but it works great. I will never go back to cream in a can. also the heavy handle feels great in the hand and seems to perform better than a plastic handle. I enjoy being able to pull the shave pot out and whip the lather in my hand. I have not had a single problem with the brush. I also do agree with another review, that the brush does smell a bit funny the first couple uses, however it was to be expected, I mean it is an animals hair, kind of a wet dog smell at first however as soon as I got some of the soap in it for a couple days its fine. A few hairs also fell out at first, but again that's to be expected. Once four or five fell out, that's it. It works great. I recommend this product to any mid aged man that wants a real durable long lasting shave kit.
