I like the Shark Chrome and Lord Chrome quite a bit. And the Cool and Silver Star. I think Suneko and FlyDear are in the same neighborhood and would be interested in opinions from anyone who can compare them. As I said, I can understand if you need Gillette Perma-Sharps to handle your whiskers. However I in turn would think it's weird if you (figuratively) like the Lord family of blades yet consider the Suneko or FlyDear far worse.
Suneko vs. Flydear

If you buy my Sentry in the auction (or one of my other lots) I will throw in some Flydears and Treet Platinum. I think you should try both.
I would skip 7 days just because Platinum is better. Suneko, meh, it should be priced more like Flydear.
I agree with Alex. These are comparable to Lord blades in design, though I think Xirui has more consistent products.

If I could afford the sentry hahaha I was more interested in buying the konsul so I could make it super mild if i wanted. However after buying the ambassador I have no need for another rex razor. I may get that aluminum one next year if its good. I kinda wanna wait just in case it has growing pains anyways.

I found that for my face the shark and lord platinums seemed to perform a little better but I think more testing needs to be done on my end. I dont feel like I know a blade well until after a couple of tucks if its pretty aggreeable to my face. If its horrible of course I dont want to try more. Perma sharps are good for most everybody. I feel like its the most agreed upon blade. My whiskers may not need it but I feel like most people are agreeable to its performance. Its one of those blades that works for most people
I haven't been doing this all that long, but I have figured out one thing.....blades are the biggest variable in the game.
Pick a blade...any blade....some is gonna tell you its smooth as butta and someone will say its like a rusty can tin can lid. And one blade can be both of those descriptions depending on the razor its in.

Thats true. I have a good experience with most blades tbh. Not every blade I have tried is great or superb but most are good. I have only tried a couple of types that were very bad. Its a roll of the dice every time a try a new brand but 9/10 times its atleast good and not horrid. About 5/10 are superb.
I am revising this comment. I tried the Flydear in my Henson aggressive today, and the blade was just great. YMMV, of course.

thats nice. Aliexpress wont let me order any flydears so eventually I might get them on amazon but I have too many good blades to count so I am not in a rush to pay the equivalent of astra sp prices for flydears right now. Sunekos im guessing are available on the same platform. I have never had this much of an issue ordering from a vendor before so I will not be using aliexpress ever.
I love discovering new blades!! The huge...HUGE...downside of this DE Shaving Adventure (at least for me) is that I can only shave once a day, with most blades giving me 4 - 6 really good shaves!! In my excitement, I want to try this blade, and that blade, and that other one over there, too!! It just takes months to do it!!

I consider people that can shave every day lucky as hell. I find that I can only shave every other day or my face starts getting raw. So much stuff to try but I only get to shave 3-4 times a week....bummer but I have to do whats right for my skin or ill be miserable.
The FlyDears were 99cents for a 100pack (shipped) before the "sale"... was there really an upside to waiting?
