Titanium carbide coated injector blades?

Do these have any place in wet shaving?

Titanium Carbide-Coated Stainless Steel Injector Blade

I ask because I've seen titanium carbide coated kitchen knives that claim absurdly long intervals between sharpening.
 
Those blades look to be for industrial tool use and not for shaving although they resemble Artist Club blades. I had a similar tool and blades purchased at Home Depot and used for scrapping.

Buy the Vintage Personna 74 tungsten carbide blades, they were superior for longevity and almost drove Gillette out of business. You can buy them on _bay some times.
 
I have not used the blades pictured by @Feather-man , but have hunch they would be terrible even if they fit. Look at how the cutting edge does not round its way back to the side of the blade. There is an abrupt 45 degree corner that I have to think my face would notice. It could hide behind the blade stops with some models. . . .but if it didn't, ouch!
