Review on πŸͺ’ Efficient Men's Feather Hi Stainless Double Shave & Hair Removal Razor Blades by William Bradford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Yes they are sharper and last longer

Let me start by saying that to get a close shave with little skin irritation you need the sharpest blade you can find. I've been shaving for over 45 years. I used to use a brush and soap, but about 10 years ago I started shaving in the shower. The best time to shave is after you have had hot water on your face for a long time. If I wait a few more minutes after shaving, the shave falls down a notch. I have used many different blades over the years, all of which were made in the USA at the time. Then came plastic and cartridge razors. I don't like the idea of throwing away the plastic handle with every new razor. Cartridge razors are in an all-out war over who has more blades. You only need 1. More is just a waste of time. I bought a huge inventory of Personas a few years ago. I ran out of blades and couldn't find any blades in my shop so I started looking online. First I bought 100 Russian-made Astra razors. These are durable razors that are hard to beat for the price. I've read about feathers and some other razors. I have an area under my chin that grows at different rates and is difficult to shave and smooth. While I can do this with most razors, it does take some work. Feathers do this much better and last longer. They cost twice as much or more than an Astra, for example. So I think they should last twice as long. And they last twice as long. I also have a large collection of vintage razors. Who would have thought that the razor I used many years ago would become popular again. Since shaving can get boring, I change them very often. I also bought some Pol Super Iridium Silver Blades, which are even more expensive than quills. They're good too, but I still prefer feathers for the price. There are a few more I could try but that can wait, I've had enough for years now. And the blades don't seem to be getting any cheaper. I was not impressed with the THAI ETC SUPPLY seller. It took me over 1 month to receive it. I shop from all over the world and was the slowest. If you're in a hurry, you might want them from someone else. But that goes for razor blades. And I have to say that after years of using many different razors, the feathers are on top. They cost more than twice as much as some, but I shave twice as often. They are covered with some kind of slime, do not wipe the blade as this will erase the smooth surface, which will help you get a good shave. I think this helps protect the razor itself from rust and moisture from the blade. Most safety razors are made of brass and won't rust, but the blade can. I like them so much I bought 100 more. If you find them aggressive, you might want an older 9 setting Gillette razor. This may give you a selection of settings to try. And I also have a new Edwin Jagger De89lbl double blade safety razor which you can get here at Revain. Really nice jewelry like a razor is cheaper than many others. This works very well with feathers. It's a shame you have to buy razors online and all I can find in the store are what I call clown razors with a million blades. And don't be afraid of sharp razor blades. , you are afraid of stupid. There the ones who are hard on the skin
