Does RazorPit work?

I've seen ads for something called RazorPit, basically a piece of rubber you put soap on and then drag your blade across. This is supposed to extend the life of your blade and keep it sharper for longer. Has anyone tried it? Does it actually work or is it a gimmick?

There are threads on here if you look. To summarize, some swear by it, some at it. There are several similar products on the market too.

I've had one for five years and they do work.

It does work if what you want is to clean the blades from soap/cream residues.
Of course it doesn't work for honing the blades like someone may erroneously might believe.

The soap/cream residues harden to a coating that makes the blades dull. Cleaning the blades extends the life of a cartridge up to three times in my experience.
