Title: K mart
Post by: Cochise on June 09, 2011, 07:17:21 AM

So k-mart has a 6 blade razor call the smart sense
I makes a lot of sense because this is a dynamite razor with refills under 7 bucks

Hey Cochise,

That appears to be the razor and carts made by the American Safety Razor Company.
Their brand is called the Magnum M5. The sell them to various stores under the stores own brand name. I bought mine at a local grocery story under the Magnum M5 name.
They keep them and the carts in stock all the time and seem to be very popular. I love mine and the price is right on them too. It's a good find for you if you like them as much as I do.

Check out the American Safety Razor Comapny's website sometime. They are the company that used to be called Personna, I think.

I think you may be wrong about that Mozingo. That cartridge looks like it actually has six blades. The M5 is 5 blades plus a trimmer blade.

The M5 is also my razor of choice for my face. It's the best razor I've ever used.

MikeKoz13, I think you are correct. My mistake. It all just looked so M5ish to me.

I think Walgreens has their own version of this too.

Walgreen's does sell their own version of this razor but the company that manufactures these razors is called Pace

I've tried all the versions of these before.  They worked well for awhile and then seemed like I couldn't get a close shave with them and I ended up returning.

Maybe we're not that far away from the Quintippio...
