    Haven't shaved in a few days and found out these blades do not work well with thick and long stubble. First pass I used what I happened to have loaded with a blade which was the Razorock Hawk V3 with the open comb plate. That took out the stubble like a champ and then I finished up using the N1 for the subsequent passes. It is a shame these double edge injector blades are so expensive and hard to source except from Japan. They are by far the best smooth and efficient blades bar none in razors designed for them. If they were more prevalent I would bet there would be a lot more people using injectors on a regular basis. End result BBS finish achieved.
