Feathers!
Tried one this morning and wow I am impressed. I have been trying a bunch of different blades and for a while there, it seemed a few were very close to each other. Detbys, Astras, Gillettes etc. I began to differentiate them by 1. how well they performed on the 4th pass / clean up of tough spots and 2. on Shave reliability for the second and third day shaves, if a third day was possible. I found that the tough spot clean up was a big give away as many struggled with that task. One of my top blades up till this morning remained the Gillette Yellows (SuperEdge I think they're called) until I tried my very first "feather" this morning. Wow, what a blade! When it came time for the clean up at the end, I found that there was less of it needed and when I did do clean up, it was easier to remove. If this blade works for at least two days of shaving, it may be my "keeper" although I do plan a run off challenge versus the Gillette yellow blade which easily get me 3 days of shaves and worked pretty darned well for me all the way around. Feathers may in fact have the edge though. (No pun intended.)
