New (to me) KAI blades, tried at a friend's suggestion.

My Feather AS-D2 razor has been transformed for me into the superb shaving tool it should always have been.

Purchased 10 years ago, I tried this razor with a variety of blades including Feather's own Hi-Stainless but couldn't get it to 'work'....so it lived in a drawer.

Can't explain it, are KAI blades a few microns wider, bringing the edge forward? Or thicker (shim effect)? Whatever the reason, thank you KAI!

Hi Sam,

Yes they are very sharp.

I live in the EU and mine came from Rasoiogoodfellas in Italy: https://www.rasoigoodfellas.eu/category/brands/kai/

I think also widely available in the UK including from: The English Shaving Company https://www.theenglishshavingcompan...QL9Yt0ATs9t7y9mSydfQl1Q4e_YVhmnLRql6-nsCWMKZa

Let us know!

I don't know where you live, but razorbladeclub.com is definitely the best stocked.
