Appearance: These blades present in a brightly colored cardboard box announcing they are Teflon coated, along with a bunch of info that I cannot decipher.
Description: The blades are double wrapped, lightly glued, and present with a clean appearance without numbers.
The blade has a long single grind from the table with a short final hone that is difficult to capture in a photo. I tried different lighting, even covering the off lens eye, and the best I can say is the overall appearance of the edge is it appears quickly done without the clear lines of demarcation between grind and hone often seen with other brands.
Use: These blades were used in five test razors, Gillettes Knack and Super Adjustable, Schick Krona, Jagger Chatsworth and Futur. Performance was good across the board but noticeably better in the adjustable razors.
Conclusion: These blades work well and are capable of very close shaves but you have to work them a bit as they are not the sharpest made. A slight roughness at first as they settle down and returning as they reach the end of their useful life. A choice perhaps for those shavers who do not want a super sharp blade or like to pair a medium blade with a more aggressive razor.
