Thanked: 6I recently bought a nonfolding RG and super blades. I cant believe you hit dull blades! These supers are insanely sharp, like to the point they are too sharp.
I think they are about on par with straights, just different characteristics. Like I noticed even though the blades are insanely sharp (sharper than any of my straights) I didn't get smooth shaves. The edge still felt rough and uncomfortable, like not smoothed enough, got cuts everytime I tried to shave with it lol.
I think your problem of jumping and catching is more a problem of lather not being lubricating enough for the razor to slide. You will feel a dull blade pulling when cutting hairs or it doesn't cut hairs well and you wind up pressing harder or using more aggressive angles and wind up getting cut.
