Item Description
WHOA! Lots of people know how to produce quality steel, but the Japanese know how to produce a quality blade and KAI (the people who make Shun knives) DE stainless steel blades are no exception.
Don't be fooled by the plain looking box and the simple blade wrapped inside (no printing on the blade of any kind. Not even the standard 1,2,3,4 or company logo). These bad boys are on another level.
The flexibility of each blade makes them exceptional for the more contoured areas of the face while the sharpness gives the double whammy of a super close shave AND extra longevity. Just fumbling with the blade a little while loading one into my Merkur Progress was enough to leave a deep groove in the nail and prove the cutting power.
I've used many different blades, but none, not even the Astra's, can hang with the KAI's. Normally I like buying blade sample packs for the volume and selection, but this has become my go to blade and it will take A LOT to unseat it.
Can not suggest highly enough.
