Item Description
This blade is very smooth, having a teflon like coating. The shave is SMOOTH and close. I achieve BBS'ness with comfort and my face is left with many layers of skin on it, unlike some blades that are very sharp and uncomfortable. When I was using the Israeli Crystal blades the shave seemed very scratchy, but the results weren't bad. Not so with the Barber blade, since each shave feels nice and comfortable. Applying aftershave with alcohol after using the barber blade produces very little to zero sting; it's that smooth in the hand of a skilled user. Or maybe it's just a good blade, I'm not sure. With proper pre-shave prep you should have a most comfortable and enjoyable outcome like me. Personally, I highly value a comfortable blade, but the blade must also be quality enough to last atleast 4 shaves. I believe these blades are designed to be broken in half if needed, presumably by a barber.
For reference, my other blades of choice are Sputnik teflons, Gillette 7'oclock Yellows(Edit: Indian blacks are smoother for me), Voskhods.. all from the motherland. That should give you an idea of what I like in a blade... laser-like comfort.
I honestly haven't tried the Personna Med Preps or Labs yet, otherwise I would compare these to them. I think Personna USA makes a killer blade here that balances aggression with comfort very well.
Purchased from razorbladesandmore.com. I am very happy to buy American made blades when they are quality like this Barber blade. When purchased by the dozen they come for .40/blade. You will drop only .17/blade for 250 of these, and that my friends, is glorious. Just start with a pack of 10 of these very quality blades.
Each blade comes wrapped in a single, all white wrapper and there are zero glue spots. Very understated.
