I tried the Dorco HQ blades and i do like them, any blade that doesn't cut me is a winner
Used a Feather Blade and lived to talk about it

Feathers are highly appreciated but they don´t work for me. Even in a mild razor. I always get razor burn.
Each time I try a feather, my wife (frowning) asks: "what happened to face ?!"
So, no-no-no, I stick to Astra SP and Nacets!

I use a Feather sometimes. I usually get the best shaves from them the 2nd and 3rd days. I usually pick a mild razor to use it in to minimize the chance of razor burn.

I will find out how they are on my second go around, the first time was great. I do shave every three days

yes, they are! At least for me. The best way to find out is to try them.
Some well regarded blades (like Polsivers and Rapiras) do simply not work for me! YMMV

I'll have to get a sample pack with them and give them a try

I like them so much that I ordered 1800 of them from a seller in Jordan.

it´s not bigger than a shoe-box:

That would be almost 15 years of shaving for me
Feather blades work out to be expensive whereas GSB seem to have a good balance of sharpness, smoothness and longevity at half the price. With good technique, Feather blades should not give irritation or nicks.
Expensive is relative. I bought 700 Feather Blades at $14 per hundred. Given that I get at least 30 shaves from one blade, that works out to $.0047 per shave.

That's not a bad pick up at all
Some spread sheet wonk needs to show how to convert that to how long it takes to buy a Wolfman, Rex, Timeless, etc.!
Congratulations!
Feathers are very sharp but unforgiving. So don’t get cocky and you should be fine!!

"Feathers don't last as long as the Personna Med Prep." <--- This. I get good results from Feathers, but I usually can't stretch them past 3 shaves. At my acquisition price of $0.30 per Feather blade, I have cheaper options that work better for me. Of course, YMMV.
I bought a sample tuck of Feathers when I began shaving and used one in my Rockwell 6S on plate R2 for about a week. I didn't have any problems with it. Tomorrow I am gonna dig up that tuck of blades and throw one into my Timeless .68. If ya'll don't hear from me again it means I bled out, lol.
