Lives up to claims |
I am using the Merkur Progress adjustable razor. Also using this razor to break into eventually using a straight razor. I got the Merkur Progress on a whim, and things have progressed for me a la "gateway" shaving tool. At this point since finding the FEATHER blades, I don't particularly care if I ever graduate to the straight razor.
After some research and having tried the Merkur and one brand of generic blades, with over a year of getting to know my razor I have finally used up all the Merkur blades I got, I sought out the Feather blades.
So far all I have read on both the Merkur and the FEATHER have been consistent, for me.
I have fairly sensitive skin and can only shave once to twice per week. The skin on my neck takes a while to recover from shaves, no matter what method I use. I also use my razor to shave my head. Sounds crazy I know, but it does the best job, period. I guess time with the razor has given me a surgical grip on the razor, for obvious reasons.
For the Merkur Progress, I start on the #4 setting as a knock down pass on my face and neck with the grain. (I have gone through quite a few soaps and cremes for lather/lubes. This last one I have tried is the best I have found- Cremo Creme. So good it even effects they grip on my razor making it slippery) Re-lather, adjust to #2.5 setting and give a cross the grain pass. Light rinse to feel where I need to give extra attention, re-lather, adjust to #1.5 and give a final against the grain pass.
Between going through the process of using the adjustments on my razor and finding the FEATHER blades I have reduced nicks and total shave time. Before, it could take up to an hour using blades that were on their third or fourth shave. Now with the Feather blades I'm on my third shave/use and this was my fastest at around 20+ minutes including shaving my head.
Before, my neck would get pretty nicked up and bloody, these last shaves with the FEATHER blades have been a real honest treat and joy. The blades raised my shaving skill points and finished feel. The smoothest finest shave I have ever had. Very close shave. (now this only leads me to imagine the shave I can achieve with a straight razor...) |

Feather -- Top of the Heap? |
The Feather New Hi-Stainless is currently my preferred, "go-to" blade. While there are plenty of double edge (DE) blades I have yet to try, I have been able to try several other blades.
The Feather "wins" because of its sharpness. In other words, it is SHARP! If you have gotten your DE technique and face prep down, then this blade will not let you down. The flip side of that is ... if you are brand new to DE shaving or have not yet been able to achieve a smooth, nick-free and super-close shave, then beware. You may not yet be ready for the Mighty Feather. :) (Keep the styptic pencil handy!)
Some people say this blade, while extremely sharp, is not as smooth as some others and doesn't provide as many good shaves as it might. So far I have found this to not be true for me. I can routinely get 3 great shaves out of a Feather, and the 4th shave is at least very good, if not great.
As with all blades, your choice of razor makes a difference. In my Merkur 38C razor, this blade is the perfect choice. The Feather Portable is a lot more aggressive than the 38C, so my first shave with a Feather/Feather combination was not nearly as good or comfortable. It wasn't horrible, and I think I can now do better since I've had more experience with the Portable. But that said, if you use the Feather blade in a more aggressive or adjustable razor, take care with your technique and/or setting. |
