My husband is a barber and uses this product daily.

Bueno

I had previously used Derby Platinum blades and was able to compare these brands together. I tested with a dry shave (no shaving cream) just to see how easily each could cut through my facial hair. I tried out the Facōn's first and it pushed through my facial hair almost effortlessly. I was able to shave off my cheek hair without much effort. Then I swapped out the blades and tested out my remaining Derby blade (unused) and the second the blade came into contact with my facial hair on the other cheek the blades grabbed my hair and pulled, not cut the hair. I then swapped out to the Facōn again and was able to shave the hairs the Derby blade refused to cut. I put shaving cream on my face and the shave time felt shorter and the blade cut through my facial hair with ease. Don't get me wrong Derby blades are great, however they definitely needed the shaving cream to perform. I will be sticking with Facōn for the foreseeable future.

Light, sharp, and smooth running. Comes with plenty. 1 case will last almost a year

I recently became a straight-edge convert and was surprised to discover how dull and bad my regular razor cartridges were until I tried these blades. Although I haven't faced any issues, I do recommend being extra cautious when handling them. I am docking one star from my review because these blades seem to rust quickly. However, given their affordability, it's not a huge deal if I can only use them once or twice. Moreover, using these blades is still better for the environment than the razor cartridges I used before!

When I wanted to make my facial hair have more clean lines and edges, I switched to a straight razor and was a little nervous. Takes some practice to know the angle to hold the razor and how to use it, but after a short while it becomes second nature. These razors are great for a straight razor newbie. I use them as single use disposables, but you probably could get 2 or 3 shaves out of them if you really wanted. They fit on my razor easily and are nice and sharp. They are a bit flexible as well, so not super rigid, which may make them seem cheap, but they work just fine for me. If you are going to use a straight razor, these are a great cheap source for replacement disposable blades

Way better in cost and performance than any other blades used prior. They will literally skin you like a catfish if you ain't careful.

Sharpest I’ve used yet
