Wow, this has to be the worst blade I have ever used! I've been trying a bunch of different razor blades from Astra to Feather and everything in between. I thought I would give this one a try based on the other reviews. MISTAKE! This was the worst shave I have ever had! Right out of the package it felt like a butter-knife shave. I think I had more stubble AFTER my three passes than when I started! Right in the garbage can with these! I'm not even giving them a second chance.
