I'd compare it most closely to a Gillette Nacet or a Lord Silver Star or Platinum in terms of sharpness and smoothness but definitely agree the longevity is much higher on the suneko than other comparable sharp and smooth blades. I get more comfortable shave out of them.
I also agree the price being comparable to well known brands causes me to hesitate to buy more but it's still worth the price for the performance imo. it makes me think there's no need to hoard any more blades because while current favourites may be hard to get, maybe even better new developments will come out in future.
the minor changes in price difference can sometimes be due to exchange rates as well but maybe not in this case if it's steadily rising. it seems to be about the same in GBP as when I bought some.
