Questionable quality and claims about durability
I came across this product at a local Walmart while shopping for new blades, and figured "why not?" The Brett Favre endorsement had nothing to do with my decision. That said, if Mr Favre does actually use these blades, I can see why he's always got that "designer stubble" look.
I shave daily, and I have a goatee. This means that I'm not doing a full shave. I found that the blades were okay for a week, two at a stretch. There was no way I was going to get three weeks from them. Still, six months of shaving for just over $20 isn't bad.
Until I swapped the most recent blade out. The new blade quite literally chopped my face up. I had razor burn and bleeding all over. I've never used so much toilet paper unless sitting down previously. This was NEW blade. Whether this is/was an anomaly in manufacturing I don't know, but haven't used the razor since.
Bottom line - you get what you pay for.
