I'll make this short and sweet as I'm just about to head out to work, but I just tried out an Israeli Personna blade I bought from Asda.. and the verdict? Rubbish.
I started wet shaving in January with a DE and moved onto a shavette after about 2 months, my first blades were Feathers and I carried on using them in the shavette. I've given 7 O'Clocks a go - rubbish, and the Personnas - so rubbish I got past 1 cheek and switched it back to a Feather half way through the shave as it was tugging so much that I thought it'd slip and chop an ear off. I don't understand how anyone can get a comfortable shave from something that isn't a Feather
I guess I was just wondering if anyone else feels the same way about these wonderful Japanese death-dealers, I really don't think there's any point in bothering to try other blades once you've used a Feather. It's making me think I should just save up, invest in a Feather Artist Club DX and be set for the rest of my shaving life!
