Feather blades
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Well of course I made the feather blades the FIRST thing that I tried amd wound up loving them (after learning how not to carve my face like a turkey).
- I spent like $70 on a giant pack of Feather blades about 8 years ago. I'm not even close to running out.
- For blade single blade recommendations, I like Feather, Kai, and Gillette Nacet blades.
- Got a sampler pack off amazon and so far the feathers seem to be the best.
- now the Feather which I wish I'd bought at the start because they're amazingly good when I thought I already had good! ... The shave has been best with the Feathers because they mow through my hard wire short stubble
Cons
- Unfortunately, they didn’t have Feathers in stock, but they said to check back next week. Curious to see if they really live up to the hype.
- the Treet blade is not quiet as sharp as a Feather blade but the tradeoff is that its less harsh than Feather. With Feathers I feel like I have to focus more when shaving or ill cut myself.
- Equipped a Feather blade, got almost perfect BBS in 3 passes (W/X/ATG) of my 3-day stubble, although I prefer Voskhods, Feathers pull my skin a bit.
- Feather blades have 1,198 mentions - Most discussed product by far, but sentiment is more polarizing (still an A though)
- I think Feathers are wildly overrated and don't give me a good shave

Been using a Mercur 34C and Feather blades for years as my only setup.
Can't go wrong generally with feather blades or something like astra green
