Item Description
This is the second last pack of blades to try in the West Coast Shaving sampler pack, and so far they are my second favorite, the best being the Feathers. They are however a lot less money than Feathers, and much easier to get.
The shave is smooth and gentle in my ball end Tech, and no nicks with these guys. They seem even smoother and more forgiving than Derbys or Crystals. They aren't as sharp as a Feather, but seem sharper than Derbys. It takes less effort to get BBS at the base of my neck, which is always a problem area for me. Feather can do it with no problem, but I have to work at it with a Derby or Crystal, and sometimes end up irritated. Not so with these.
My Boosters aftershave sting tells me that my shave was pretty easy on my face, too. So far I am on shave #4 and the blade still seems fine. I expect at least one more shave out of it. For $10 per hundred, I just had to buy them.
I gave then a 10 on packaging. They are simply in a cardboard box, and wrapped in paper. Cheap, biodegradable and recyclable. Perfect. Used blade holders are OK, but I'll gladly forgo them for a more eco-friendly package.
Yes, I would prefer Feathers. But these are nearly as good. Go get some.
