@Macduff, as always your blade reviews are among the best on the internet. You give it to us straight and we are all the better for it!
I only ever tried the Treet Black once, and once was enough. I inherited my father's iron beard and I struggle with certain blades. I found the Treet Carbon painful in the extreme. It felt like shaving with a paint scraper and couldn't understand how they would work for anyone. But we all have different hair and perhaps it really does work well for some. I said I would rather shave with Corn Pop's rusty pocket razor he banged on the curb and left in the rain barrel than endure another shave with a Treet! But for the people it helps, I'm glad they have it at their disposal.
Thanks for the kind words and i got a good laugh out of the corn pop comment @sharpstar90! I second the “paint scraper” comparison with these things. Like i said in the review the results were good but man these things pulled my beard badly during the shave. Carbon steel is undeniably cool but in my opinion, it can stay back in the 40’s where it belongs.
