They are not in my "perfect" list, as their sharpness combined with a bit not so flexible blade, is making them a tiny bit too rough for me.

I have the same opinion. I've used these blades and Dorcos for almost five years . The only difference between these blades and any other from the same plant is different wrappings.

In my opinion, there's a small difference between Sputnik Teflons and Rubies: Sputniks are a bit rougher for me.
