+1000 on those damned glue spots! They don’t seem to bother the majority of users, but we must be the only ones that get glue on the cutting edge or, my personal favorite, exactly where the barn door closes (safety bar side) so you end up, at a minimum, having to pry the blade out of your razor or, worst case scenario, your blade exposure is a little wonky.
Why do no other PPI blades have as much glue on them or have that much glue by the blade edge?
I’m assuming this isn’t as big of a deal for 3-piece users, but all of my razors are TTOs (minus the qshave).

I love the GSB blades but I stopped using them for 2 reasons: The shave wasn't that much better then the astra sp for me to justify over double the cost per blade (keep in mind, I once and done my blades with only the occasional second use) and those glue spots are ridiculous.
Most don't seem to mind them except us two. I agree wholeheartedly, they would give wonky blade exposure on my razors (I use merkur 2 piece and a paa 3 piece) and give me very inconsistent shaves because I always have glue spilled over onto the blade edge. Trying to scrape it off results in my fingers getting cut and destroying the blade edge even further.
