Kamisori AC blades-anyone still buying and/or using these?

Kamisori (blade from the OP) are still available here:

As for the Dorco blades, I'll wait for the Maggard's reply.
Shame the shipping is more than the blades from that site - just under £16
 
For those inquiring minds.
Just received the blades and checked: Dorco BB-20 blades actually fit RazoRock Hawk V.3.
I've yet to shave with this combo (this Sunday, probably) but there were no assembly problems whatsoever.
They peep out a bit further than Feather Pros, no more than Pro Supers though (or even less, I think).
Cheers!

Interested to hear how you get on with them
 
Alright, I've done the test-run of Dorco BB-20 in my Hawk v3.
The SOTD picture is here.
When testing new (to me) razord/blades I always stick to tried and true software combo. Tabac just works.

I compare Dorco to Feather Pro which I previously used with this razor.
Korean blade feels not as soft but probably more efficient. 2+ passes and perfect BBS. No irritation, the skin feels good.
But you need to be very careful: the razor+blade mows whiskers with no distinct feedback (it's rather rigid) but tremendous sharpness is still there.

Additional notes re.comaptibility.
I've noticed that there's a tiny but visible shift to one side (whereas Feather blades are dead-centered).
You may see that blade is closer to the left side. If flipped, it will be shifted to the right.

(the blade exposure is even, my picture is a bit busted)

It's not a big deal, because you will not feel this shift. But our brethren with OCD will definitely suffer.
All in all, it was a surprisingly pleasant experience.
