I was searching something to get away from gillette, ordered a blade also. I cant say it doesnt do the job, to do my usual woman hair off routine. Its sharp, many mentioned how they cut them self, I dont know how. Honestly, I used Gillete, man, always newest. And they are better, loads but Im satersfied with these as Im want something cruelty free and its so much cheaper. Overall they do the job very well.
