I trashed my first PearlMax after one cheek.
After a week or two I tried another, but this time I palm stropped it first. It was a great improvement but not an excellent blade. Kinda lower tier but usable. Minimum viable.
Either QC is really bad and blade to blade variation is terrible or the blades need to be stropped to clean the edge. It would be a good candidate for corking, but I will need a bottle of wine first!
