I have tried these blades in 3 different razors now, and I honestly don’t see what all the fuss is about. I would call the shave very harsh, or rough. I used 3 of the 5 blades, and it was very uncomfortable every time I used them. Not for me.

I ordered a sample pack, which included the Kai blade. Very close shave, and I can get three great shaves per blade.

I absolutely Love these blades! They are just the right combination of sharpness, and longevity. I used to use the Merkur blades almost exclusively but these quickly became my favourite. Be careful if you have a sensitive face though. These are Seriously Sharp!!!

I find these blades to be all that I need for my every other day of shaving.
