I bought the original razor and blades some time ago. I didn’t think it gave as good a shave as Gillette fusion. I thought I would give it another chance, primarily due to the high cost of replacement blades. The new design razor and blades arrived last week and I have used them over this weekend on a one and two day growth. My results are that I will be returning to my Gillette fusion once I have used the blades I have purchased from Cornerstones. The blades does not give a clean shave and I had to go over my beard without much effect.
