    Default my blade search is over

    so after a sample pack of blades my face & razors have decided that Feather blades are the one !!! i guess my skin has expensive taste ...lol.. id still like to try the Gillette blades but this is what ive found ... keep in mind things changed often every time i used a new blade but this is the run down after marking down numbers after use , also i dont use a DE that much or at least as much as the straight
    results came from these razors
    1)GILLETTE TRAVEL TECh
    2)GILLETTE TECH
    3)GILLETTE SUPER SPEED (black handle but not black tip )
    4)GILLETTE FLARE TIP
    5)GILLETTE SLIM ADJUSTABLE TTO
    the slim was my last razor to try the feather in and it was also the BEST DE shave yet , ATG 1 pass , WTG 1 pass and i was BBS ... It was also my 3rd shave on the Feather m i tried to use just one side of the blade per shave for the other razor (switching sides each shave ) and for the slim i used both .. dont know if it was the weight of the razor itself compared to the Techs but it felt really good ... so on that note Feather it is so far and i just bought a Fatboy so i can try one of them out also ...lol

    So far, Feather tops my list, but I still have 9 more brands in my sample pack to try.

    I also settled on the Feathers after trying quite a few sample packs. I ended up buying a pack of about 200 2 years ago which will last many years as I now shave with a SR or sometimes a SE razor. DE's have become a bit ho hum now.........

    Feathers are nice blades, and if they work for a person, they usually really work, so to speak.
