Item Description
Honestly, my new favourite blades. These things cost around 10-20 cents USD/CAD, last me for 3-5 6 pass shaves, and are absolutely the smoothest blades I've tried, smother than, dare i say, the Israeli personnas, sharper to. The only blades i've tried that are sharper, were feathers, but not by much. They are extremely forgiving and make a great go to blade in any razor. So far my favorite combo is in a ball ended tech. Worked well in my flare tip ss, black handle ss, and krona, even my shavette!
In hopes of giving perspective, I've got a very thick beard and moderate to sensitive skin, blades like merkur, astra and derby only give me 2 acceptable shaves. The isralies gave me 2.5 BBS, but the last half of the third shave hurt like hell.
The first shave with the blue birds is the roughest-and it gets smoother shave after shave.
Can't beleive how cheap these are. Can't beat the bang for buck.
Now if you'll excuse me i've got some blades to hoarde.
