How did I forget about these? When I was working in Chicago, my wife buried these somewhere, and I stumbled upon them again while cleaning my closet. Shortly after joining here, I got about 100 of these blades off eBay. I'm not saying how many I have left. lol
Anyway, as wonderful as I remember them. The most surprising thing about them is that they are as smooth on on the first shave as any more modern blades are on shave #2. I don't know why that is, and I cannot imagine how we actually lost technology in these things, but there you have it.
The.
Smoothest.
Blade.
Ever.
As I recall these are good for about a week's worth of shaves, too. I will report as the shaves progress.
