Your experience with Feathers is similar to mine. They start out really, and I mean really sharp, but they seem to lose that super sharp edge rather quickly. Originally Posted by excalibur

So far the Feather blades work for me only in my Blue Tip, not in my Super Speed. I've not tried one in my Futur, but will, one day. Feathers seem to get dull faster than my Swedish Gillette or Red Personna. Maybe some using the Feather are doing so for macho reasons .

I prefer a milder blade like a Personna (U. S.) or a Wikinson Sword when I am shaving with my DE razor."Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." Mark Twain

Don, I agree. The Feathers, while a very sharp blade, tend to dull after about 3 shaves. I could always get about 6 shaves from my Gillette Swedes. Originally Posted by excalibur
