Feather Artist Club ProSuper Razor Blades 20 Count

Ive been using a straight razor for shaving for years now. I started with a very cheap razor (the ones that cost like $5 for 100 blades) and while that was a big improvement over a normal razor, I didnt realize the shave could get even better. I purchased these for the first time a few months ago and WOW! I thought my cheap blades were sharp - those are butter knives compared this this!!! The shave is fantastic and irritation free. I use each blade about 4 times before tossing - or 2 sessions (I shave twice per session, one with the grain, one against the grain) and it stays sharp. I have used 6 times a few times but by the 6th time, I can feel the blade dull a bit and I love a sharp blade. They are considerably more than I was paying but it is well worth it. It took me a while to be careful with it b/c the cheaper blades were a bit more forgiving and I used to apply a lot of pressure while shaving. When I used these, its definitely not good to apply a lot of pressure - you just need a feather touch and it works beautifully. Just to get a sense how much better, I did try my cheap straight razor blades one time for kicks and WOW! I realized the cheap blades were NOT shaving anywhere as close and it gave me terrible razor burn. Never again, Im a convert to these blades and while my initial switch to a straight razor was to save money (tired of paying Gillettes extortion for new refills on their n-bladed safety razors) and the cheap blades were so unbelievably cheap, Im still willing to pay more for these great razors (Still probably come out way ahead dollar wise using these). Also, the built-in used razor disposal system is a great touch. It was always a pain to toss my cheap blades b/c I was worried about someone cutting themselves if I just threw them in our trash can (have dogs that tip over the can once in a while and didnt want them to get cut). You just slip in a blade after its used underneath and its safely put away until youve used all the blades. This is a big plus for safety. I also love the dispenser which makes reloading very simple. My old cheap blade was all manual and was a pain.

Razor is very sharp and gives a close shave. However it is not as smooth as I had hoped. For those that want a good combination of sharp and smooth I would recommend the feather artist Pro razor however, for those wanting the closest shave possible with this cartridge loading straight edge razor, I would recommend this feather artist super razor.

Simply the best, and longest lasting of the Feather straights. I tried the other ones (professional) and they dont even come close to these!

works well

Ive tried several different brands of blades, but these are the best Ive tried so far. Theyre a little expensive, but for thick beards theyre the only type of blade I use.

These are very rough to shave with. Also they are not good for more than 2 shaves. I recommend buying Schick Proline P-30 blades instead. They are much better.

This was a great gift! Just beware of how sharp these blades really are. Some of the sharpest I’ve seen.

Clean shave and solid...Even though I thought I would not have to use two blades on one shave. I would buy again if find them less elsewhere. Wish me luck

Very sharp. The Feather Proguard blades are probably the safer place to start, but after about 3 weeks of practice, I actually found that these provided a smoother shave that was easier on my face. Because they are so sharp, they require very little pressure---very little indeed. Once I got used to how little pressure they needed, it became very easy to control and Ive actually cut myself more rarely than with the Proguards.

Be careful with these. They are extremely sharp and require a very controlled, light touch. It took me a while to get used to the sharpness and not irritating the hell out of my face. Once you get proficient at using them, you will have the cleanest shave ever.
