Pros & Cons
Pros
These are way sharper than bics. They're as sharp as razor bla.
Feathers have a polished edge and are smooth right from the start. They retain their sharpness for a couple of shaves. Using them with my merkur * 37c has given me my best shave ever.
These are typically regarded as the most "aggressive" level of sharpness in de razor blades. These blades are insanely sharp. Blades are very sharp and durable.
The bonus bluebird blades are a true bonus! These blades are awesome.
Cons
The one advertised says 'platinum coated', code 4517 6517 with yellow package. The one i received is black package and does not say 'pl platinum coated' they pull and go dull halfway through the first pass!
Highlights
Quality
Wicked sharp and they glide amazingly with quality shaving soap proraso green
The shave is smooth and i dont have nicks on my face anymore of course with the right technique
Longevity of the blade seems in line with better quality blades such as timor
Shipping
Exactly as described unbelievable fast shipping
Good price per blade even with shipping costs especially compared to buying single packs at my local barbershop
Competitiveness
And for the price of 30 its still cheaper than modern alternatives
I stopped trying different brands when i found these

You have to gently guide the shaver rather than drag it with some force in order to shave without cuts
