Better then a lot of blades out there and pretty darn good for an affordable blade made in Bangladesh. I only get 2-3 shaves out of it and provides for a mostly comfortable shave. BUT, it does not fit in my top 5. Probably no. 7 favorite. It Can’t beat the top Russian blades or a good Personna.. Voskhod, Astra Green, and Gillette platinum are more comfortable on my face. YMMV.
