Shogun blades

[guitarslinger]

I don't see them mentioned very often.

I just ordered 10 from dridiot.

What should I expect?

Feather sharpness for $.20?

Treet sharpness for $.20?

I was thinking of ordering some from dridiot myself but decided to try the Vidyut Super Max Platinum instead.

I thought they were super sharp, but irritating. I read somewhere on here that they are either a) rebranded feathers or b) made by the same company as feather under a different name. I can't remember which.

Anyhow, I tried them and don't use them for the same reason as I don't use feathers... waaaaay too sharp and irritating for my skin.

Two data points do not a trend make, but I've used two Shogun blades now and I really like them! I get a nice, smooth shave with little irritation, but will probably discard them after two shaves from now on. The third shave has been noticeably rougher.

Maybe I just didn't notice with Derby's and Dorco's, but Shoguns (and KAI's) rust after a few days..

Horrible.
My dad brought some back from Thailand and they cut my face up badly.
but YMMV, as they say here so give them a shot. I doubt they will work if you have a coarse beard though.
