I didn't find these blades to be nearly as sharp as other reviewers here have reported. My understanding is that there is a distinct difference between the Dorco 300's and the Dorco 301's, so reviewers who compare these to Feather blades may be referring to the 301's.
I found the Dorco 300's to be a decent no frills blade. I would recommend these to a beginning shaver as they were relatively forgiving and gave roughly the same quality shave as a Mach 3. The Westcoast Shaving FAQ has correctly suggested trying these blades first.
I did experience some dragging and minor irritation that I don't encounter with either Derbys or Crystals, but I have a light beard and relatively sensitive skin compared to most users. I also encountered slightly better performance using these with soap than with cream.
