    I bought some wilkies at walmart on saturday. I gave them a spin in my SS and got a great result for the first shave on sunday. BBS and stayed that way for some time. Picked it up today and got a mediocre shave and probably wont attempt a 3rd day with it. Maybe it was a bad blade or an extreme case of YMMV. I might load up a fresh one and give it another trial.

    I average 3 shaves per blade.

    I can definitely tell when it is time to get a new one though.
    But locally available, and 20 cents per, means I just swap it, and drive on

    I tried a couple. It is an okay blade for me, something that I can pick up locally in case I ever run out of my preferred brand.

    did not like that blade at all..not sure if i managed one whole shave or not. ill the flip side they will work fine in my shavette to trim the back of my neck.

    They work well for me but I get about 3-5 shaves out of them. I normally get 5-7 out of most blades.
