    Kai is a bit different than other brands

    They come more dull than feathers and they’re a thicker gauge steel than other blades use. I still find them plenty sharp though.

    The thicker steel is what I think makes them good for me. My beard hairs are very heavy and thick, so thicker steel reduces vibrations as it cuts giving me a more reliable shave.

    I generally use each blade 6 times, which is good longevity for a blade.

    I also kinda like that they’re no frills. No laser etching or waxy drops on the blades. Feels like something Ron Swanson would use.
