Horrible
Title says it all: Horrible. I'm testing various brands of blades in different razors, and based on the reviews I wanted to give these BICs a go. I opened a new pack, put a blade in a 1964 Gillette Slim Adjustable set on 8, and, oh, horrors, it pulled and tugged like it was a dull, used blade. What a shock. I thought maybe I had gotten a bad blade so before passing judgment I tossed that blade and put in another. Following day (This morning) same thing. Pulled and tugged like an old, used blade. It cut, yes, but jeez, so would one of my kitchen knives (Which would probably have felt better). I threw that blade away too and just chucked the remainder into the trash. No need to test further. It's just a horrid, uncomfortable shave and I can't recommend these at all. So far I've tried Wilkinson Sword (Wal-Mart), Walgreens generic, Astra, and Feather. I'd rate the Astra a 10, the Feather a 9, the Wilkinson a 6, the Walgreens a 5 and these, a 1. Sure, try them for yourself, you'll only be out what, $2.75 and YMMV.

Not so good for me
I have to agree with some of the others here as this blade just didn't agree with me. I could feel it pulling more than most blades. My beard is fairly heavy and grows quickly, but my skin relatively sensitive. Luckily there are a # of other blades which work well for me.

Bic is awesome almost as sharp as a Feather
6 months into wet shaving now, but before I began I was able to find a website showing relative sharpness of blades and it has held very true for me. Using a Jagger 98l razor, I worked my way up the sharpness chain until I found the best one for me. I have a very tough and heavy beard, rough when short and very sensitive skin. A sharp blade is a must for me. I started with Derbys, Red Personnas, Astras, Crystals/Blue Personnas, Wilkinsons, Bics, and then Feathers. Essentially in order of relative sharpness, skipped Sharks and Merkurs since Derbys were far too dull for me. I love the Bic blades and they make a great price point between Crystals/Blue Personnas and Feathers.

so-so at best
Not very impressed. Even on the first shave I could feel the blade pulling, not shaving. Most blades were good for more than 2-3 shaves.

Great Blade
This blade shaves smooth and close. I was very surprised. I have moderate heavy beard growth with sensitive skin. Great blade!
