My premiere shave with the Gillette blade sold at Walgreens. 4 nice shaves, with the 4th shave the blade was failing to get close enough to smooth out that one very hard to shave spot on my right jawline.If it wasn't for that one rough spot I could have squeezes at least 6 shaves out of this blade.If I could buy a hanger for $15 - $18 ,I certainly would , but at 75 cents per blade in the Walgreens 9 pack it's just not an appealing deal...Wish I could get a hanger of the Brazilian Gillette Mejoradas to compare them with...The Brazilian Wilkinsons are far smoother than their German counterparts ,and Brazilian Schicks are also a decent blade.Most of the other Brazilian blades are rebranded ,and very good ,Treet blades..
