Kai work great in mine
I use Polsilvers, Super Iridiums and Bolzano Superinox. Because these are very hard to procure I am looking into the Gillettes from the St Petersburg plant. So far I know that my face doesn't approve of the Yellows. I also have high hopes on the Indian Gillettes (both green and black). Unfortunately I have only located a vendor in Mumbai, India...

In this razor I use Souplex and Astra SP. They make good couples with the FS.
Most of the time I used either Feather or 7 o'clock black (India) blades.
what troubles are you having?
Feather is a very mild razor, and the prevailing wisdom around here is that you use your sharpest blades with you mildest razor. All I can tell you, based on my experience, is that the sharpest blades work best for me on my Feather razor. That would be Polsilver SI, 7 o'clock Blacks, and Med Preps.
I have only ever used Feather blades with the AS - D1 UNTIL this morning. I managed get to hold of some Super Iridiums and My goodness! My goodness!
I would have to say that it's one of the best shaves I have ever had. The smoothness of the Feather AS and the sheer ellegence of the Super Iridium blade. Absolutely bloody awesome shave. As of today, Feather takes a second spot in my top 3 blades.

+1. I don't have a Feather AS, but that seems to be what works. Feather probably designed it to work specifically with their blades.

I will try it with the feathers, I think it may be just too mild for my tastes.
