I think they are just fine in my Merkur 34c. If I had a thick course beard perhaps my results would be different. I use them in my rotation with Personnas, Astras, GSBs, Feathers, Wilkinson Swords etc. I don't find them inferior at all.

My first experience with wet shaving was Derby...I bought 200 blades on the recommendation of a friend. I find them adequate to good. Price can't be beat. They are inconsistent with sharpness, though; I usually get 4 days of triple-pass shaves on a blade, but occasionally need to change them out after 1-2 days, due to them being too dull. I can sometimes tell the difference between sides of individual blades. I rarely get knicks or weepers from them, and only then if I'm careless...I'm not throwing them out, I'll soldier on through them, they do just fine. I'll probably move to Astra or Feather next, but will start with a few until I find the sweet spot.
Well?
