blade testing

Post by mrjediconsular »

so ive been blade testing for quite a while now and i almost done with my 50 blades but heres my problem i have been testing stainless steel blades from the start and i 5 packs left and one is a feather pack and i was wondering if i should keep going with all stainless despite feathers being one of the sharpest blades (i have about 10 super max stainless blades to go before feathers) or should i go with the platinum blades then feathers?
