Grotting about in the loft, I happened upon something I had completely forgotten about!

I have a couple left ...

Any good?

I've used Kai disposables a couple of times after finding them in my hotel room. Not the smoothest, but perfectly servicable. They looked similar to yours, but were all-plastic.

From memory, they were fine! When I got them, I was going through a phase of vintage Trac-II type cartridges. I believe these are carbon steel.

I've subsequently seen KAI paper razors!

I thought that was going to be an April fool, but it’s for real. Fascinating.

Back about 2011 - 2012 certain Dollar type stores were selling Noxema twin blade disposables which had KAI blades. Rougher than the proverbial cob!
