I ordered a sample pack of 15 different blades[2 of each kind] about a year ago when I first got into wet shaving. They were my second favorite blade. I got a really good shave even though my technique was so so. I bought a bunch of Feathers. Then I heard about Try A Blade. So I ordered some that were not in my first sample pack. But I wanted to revisit a couple of blades that I had liked before. Wilkinson Sword and Astra to see how I would like them now.
Thinking that I may find a blade that is not as harsh as the Feathers. I had read some current reviews on amazon. Many of them were bad. So many guys said that they weren't the same. So even though I have better soaps and technique; I got a horrible shave. The razor tugged and I had very bad razor burn! The worst razor burn that I have ever had in the entire time that I have been wet shaving. I realize that it is possible to get a dud.
Have any of you guys experienced this lately?
