Something different (updated)

#Update
The razor and handle is the regular Pace3 plus in the UK
only with a different color scheme

The handle is also used for the upgraded Pace4 plus in Korea
also in a different color

that is one of the things I like with dorco, the use of all the different possibilities
in modern production.

#Update2

The Pace7 is available at amazon.com with international shipping now

While I got no response with my inquiry to DorcoUSA about ordering the U.S. Pace 7 abroad
and not willing to pay the rip off prices at ebay I tried my luck at amazon.com

This is the price on 7th of Dec 2015 without international shipping or taxes at dorcousa

See the nearly double price only for the gift set, same if you look for the Dorco Prime Set.

Unfortunately the Dorco Razors are not shipped to Germany but I found this one on amazon.com

A 3-blade system razor with the new web-guard-bar from the Pace 7?



I have seen a picture of that head in a facebook post at the global Dorco page in April this year, a brasilian Pace 3 disposable (the U.S. pace 3 disposable got the same head now) but not at any other system cartridge compatible to the Pace docking system.
Brasilian Pace 3 disposable

This one is compatible and got a brand new handle also. I have seen all the Dorco cartridges and handles mixed in different types in supermarkets across Europe, but this handle is new to me.

Really nice design and weight (46g w. cart), grippy where it should be

















Pace6+, Pace7, Remington 3, Pace3 from top to down. Yes Pace6+ and 3 are dismantled, details later



The given website and facebook page on the back of the cover, are not valid now (anymore?)
At amazon is one review for the 3-Blade from Oct. 2015 and three for the 6+ System (the Pace6+ with red/white handle) from Sept. and Nov. 2015. Price was $6.99 for the razor and $7.99 for the cartridge replacement (9.99 for the rebranded Pace6+ and cartridges)

Will try that razor later in comparision to the "old" Pace 3.
