ok. i know this has been done before but it's not really a repost as it is MY experiences with this razor. 
ok, here's the deal. there are several reasons why it will never go beyond 5 or 6 blades on a razor.
the more blades there are one of two things will happen, the heads will get bigger (at some point this will make shaving really really annoying) OR the blades will get closer together (actually it will be a combination of these things).
my review is really about why having the blades closer together won't work.
My conclusions. ONLY buy the schick if you have relatively sparse facial hair OR thin facial hair. i don't fit in either category.
does the schick shave closer than the gillete? yes, but at what cost. for me it was really really painful and heres why, because the blades are too close together.
if you have sparse or thin facial hair this won't be as much an issue for you.
one thing for sure, i would NEVER EVER shave with the schick with 2 days growth.
