I believe what is good about the Mach 3 has more to do with the design than the three blades

1. The head pivots at one end and not the center. This helps put just the right amount of pressure on the skin to shave the hairs but not shave the skin.

2. The blade component is totally open at the back and this makes cleaning/rinsing of the blades very easy and fast.

In any case, I liked the Mach 3 back when I was beardless.
