    Maybe some that join, just for the Giveaways. Then again, we would have to pay $5-$6, just to give them away.

    No, I wouldn't do that to anyone who didn't have enough experience to know upon use that they're not representative of DE shaving in general.

    I just finished 5 shaves with this blade. Not bad. Still very smooth. Not as smooth as the Suneko though.

    These are supposed to be pretty close in quality to the Suneko. That's what I read. Made in the same factory as the Iguetta blades..

    These were supposed to be Platinum Coated blades, but they pulled a fast one on me, and sent these. But, they did send one tuck of the Platinums. In the products description, on the Official Website, they constantly say these are Platinum coated. But, on the package and blade there is no mention of Platinum. Hmmmm.

    This one was included in the switch-a-roo. I guess I will see if they are that much different.

    Another one to test. Prices are cheap on AliExpress. Since it was opened, and the blade was out, the wife grabbed it and put it into her razor. I guess she will have first shot at using it. Maybe I should supervise the shave. For scientific purposes. :D

    The only experience I have with Chinese blades are the Schick Injector blades that one purchases on Amazon. They are good quality. No complaints. I have avoided the Chinese DE blades only because I tend to use DE blades that are well known to me, for example, GSB, Personna Lab Blue, Tiger, Gillette Sharp Edge, etc.

    Give the Suneko a try. They should be easy to find, not expensive, and fantastic blades.

    The FlyDear Platinum is very usable. I have nothing bad to say. The other blades made by the same factory (Rhinoceros XR & Matgicol) have also received good reviews.

    All go for < $6 per 100 frequently on AliExpress.

    Off on another test.
    First shave was very very nice, on a couple of days growth.

    It sounds like Chinese blades are as bad as their cars "CRAP" their probably made of the same cheap metal PASS

    The platinum coated ones are usually pretty good. Don't knock-em till you try them.
