Feather Double Edge Safety Razor Blades - 50 Count - Platinum Coated Hi-Stainless Steel Razor Blades - Fits

I decided to give these a try after running out of the blades that came with my Henson razor, and man what an improvement over the RK blades it came with. The RK blades are good, but these are so much better in term of closeness and smoothness of the shave. The blades are definitely thinner, but the steel is a higher quality so they don't dull as quickly despite that fact and stay sharp for longer. While they are more expensive per blade I can also get twice the use out of a single blade before having to change out the blade so the cost is mostly offset. I generally only get 2 shaves out of a blade due to ho coarse and thick my facial hair is before it starts to drag and cause me some skin irritation, but I get at least 3 with these before I really notice. Well worth the extra cost in my opinion Read more

I’ve been using Feather Double Edge Safety Razor Blades for more than a year, and they’re easily the best blades I’ve ever shaved with. They’re incredibly sharp, give a clean and smooth shave, and stay consistent from blade to blade. No tugging, no irritation, just a precise, effortless shave every time. After trying plenty of other brands, I always come back to these. Five stars without hesitation! Read more

Absolute best I have used. Stays sharpest the longest, effective against 3-4 day growth on a man’s face. Very cost effective, very consistent and very satisfied. Read more

These are great razors for me. They are very sharp and give's a nice close shave. These are a little more expensive than some other alternatives, but Feather has always provided a great product. Read more

If you need a sharp, double edged Razor Blade for your shave, then Feather makes the best all around. They are sharp, the quality is consistently excellent, and they last shave after shave. It takes forever to go thru a pack of 10 let alone 50... That crap that Gillette sells with the 3 blades is a waste of your money. Read more

They are good, sharp blades that last 3-4 shaves for me. Not sure they are worth the extra cost compared to similar blades that last approx the same time. But a good quality product. Read more

Update at the bottom.... This review is going to be a combined review, so you will see the same thing on 5 products. I use them in combination and feel they are connected. This review is for: Vikings Blade, Godfather Shaveology Shaving Cream Shaveology After Shave Shaveology Pre-Shave oil Feather, double Platinum blades I have been using an electric shaver for almost 9 years now. I got tired of the expensive blades for disposables and fast and easy was good for me at the time. I had 3 different shavers over the years. The last one, I have had about 6 years. They changed the blades on them 2 or 3 years ago. I dint ind the change but it always felt like I could feel the blades scraping my skin each time. It also did not get very close of a shave. I had been thinking of changing to wet shaving for a long period of time. Well its time for a new cartridge ~100.00, so nows the time to switch. I made the switch using a mail order service. After 4 shaves I hated it. The products were ok and were very citrus and refreshing but I did not like the razor itself and it was just not “there” So I ordered the Godfather blade by Viking. This thing is AMAZING! I love the weight to it, I feel like I’m holding something substantial and feel more confident its not going to slide out of my hands and slice my throat open. I also switched to Feather Blades. I figured if I want close and precise might as well go all in. I must confess, when I put on the feather blade, I had prepped towels for the presumes carnage, but there was none. The blades and this viking blade system, just floated over my skin and I could barely feel it doing anything, but it was! So I have very happy with the blades and the razor. The Shaveology products are very nice. I LOVE the scent. Its very guy scented, almost cologne smelling and it just has such a great clean feeling without smelling too young and too old. (so hard to explain) but its great. The pre-shave oil is nice and thick and puts on a good layer. Letting it soak on for about 2-3 minutes while you prep the shave cream and your brush makes it better. The shave cream was weird for me as its a more dry cream and the last one I used was a little more wet. I did not use my bowl and instead put a little bit on the brush directly and applied it. It took about 15 seconds but started turning into such a creamy almost yogurt like consistency. It felt really nice!!! Shaving was very pleasant, as I mentioned above, its just super smooth and feels nice. The post shave balm is where its at though. I can’t say enough about this. The smell, the feel, and the feel on my face afterwards. I am still a noob at wet shaving this way so irritation is still present as I am getting the technique down pat. This soothes the face very well and leaves you refreshed. Overall I love all of these products and would recommend any of them to anyone. Update::: Man these things are no joke. I got "heavy handed" and when I say that I mean, just above the pressure exuded by the DE shaver. Well, carnage ensued. My god this things are SHARP. Got the side of my mouth and my upper lip pretty good. Looked like I murdered someone in the bathroom haha. It was rough. So be careful. If you are just starting out, these may not be for you.

** UPDATE ** File this under "don't rush to judgement" To be fair, I was wrong about my first review (see below). I now have about 6-7 blades behind me and I am now a big fan. Yes, these felt overly harsh on my first blades, but give these some space before you pass judgement too. I now find these very sharp and super close. They become easier on the skin as you grow used to using them and I now am super happy with these. Yes - I will be going back for more!! Original below ...... I had high hopes for this razor blade. It should have everything going for it... made in Japan (they place a high priority of superior quality), Feather make a host of surgical blades and they get such high scores in the reviews. But I am not seeing these properties come through at all. I find the blades harsh to the skin, not all that sharp and they did not hold up too long. Sharpness - it's just not there at all. I have Henson handle and the RK blades beet the Feather, and I don't like the RK's that much either. I find Dorco to be sharper that Feather and Astra to be slightly sharper still. Comfort - Feather falls off here too. Very harsh shave. My skin feels stressed even hours after I have shaved. I could not wait to change this blade out. Back to Dorco today and I'll revisit Astra again next. Durability - Another fail here too. The Feather's start bad and don't ever get any better. I was happy to trade them out after day 3. I can easily get 4 or more shaves with either Dorco or Astra. Sorry Feather - I so wanted these to be a great blade. Read more
