Feather AC ProGuard Blade 15-Pack

Definitely 5 star

Like many seeking a 'straight razor' experience I decided to try the Feather Artist holder and these blades. It was a transcendental shaving experience. These blades are sharp but equally well crafted to really make it hard to nick or cut yourself unless you are careless. It was, and remains, by far the smoothest, closest, most enjoyable shave of any safety razor, straight razor, or shavette shave I have ever done. As mentioned in other reviews, only a light and confident touch is needed (you can always make another pass. You cannot un-cut yourself...). The blades are sharp and smooth. I opine they can be considered long lasting. You can certainly use them for 7-10 shaves or more. They are that sharp that 'duller' is still pretty sharp. That said, my preference is after 5-7 shaves it really becomes many more passes to get BBS than with a new blade. These blades are absolutely worth the price over time. While I do rotate between this and a safety razor this is my preferred shaver/blade, even while traveling. It takes up very little space and is light. The pealed dispenser is also a blade bank. So another plus for that.

I get about 25-27 shaves per blade. I use it with the CJB kamisori. Great blade. Recommended!

Blade was very smooth and safe in my sensitive skin while still being efficient.

I switched to these from the professional. I actually get a closer shave with the pro-guard. As with the other Feather blades I've used, I get maybe four good shaves per blade before I notice dullness. While that's irritating, nothing else shaves me as well.
