    Default Feather / Kia shavette blades question (Cobra)

    Blades with a guard or blades without a guard?

    What is your preference for the Cobra?

    What is the difference (besides the guard)?

    I've never tried the Feather Proguard blades but I have tried:

    1. Kai Captain Titan Mild blades
    2. Feather Professional Super blades
    3. Feather Professional blades

    My preference for blades is in that order for the Cobra. I did not like the Feather Professionals at all. They felt very rough to me and gave me tiny nicks all over my face. The Feather Professional Supers were a lot better and the Kai Titan Milds are the best. To me, they're as sharp as the Feather Professional Supers but a whole lot smoother and more forgiving.

    I've never tried blades with a guard so I couldn't tell you the difference.

    I find the guards to be somewhat scratchy probably due to the guard. I got to try a Kai Pink and liked it. Will be trying the supers later, but have had no weeper or nick problem with either.
