My research finds that this company now outsources production so I really hope Razor Emporium’s U.S. inventory holds out. The shave is crisp, smooth, snag-less, and close. Won’t rust with proper rinse, dry, & store.

I have tried a lot of blades over the years. These are almost Feather sharp but smoother. They also don't have wax paper that sticks to the blades.

I wanted to try the lab blies since everyone has raved about them. Unfortunately for my skin, i don't see the attraction. I didn't get a smooth shave from them. I got a bit of irritation from each blade. Luckily i got a sample pack, and tried them, instead of following the hype train. YMMV.

These are my go to blades. Sharp, smooth, affordable, and MADE IN THE USA. These also do not have the glue/wax dots on the blade, which for some reason drive me bonkers.
