i'm using the Feather AS-D2 so would assume it's a good match but nope i'm wrongNah! Nor me ... despite persisting.
"These things really should work for me ... what about a different razor?" ... the same.
While I'm usually a single edge shaver (yes, with Personna manufactured GEM brand), when it comes to DE, I'm a Treet fellow - DuraSharps for that satisfying feeling, Platinum for a run of consistent shaves and 7 Day (just trying my first blade now) for a stunningly smooth shave!
I like the Lab Blues , Med Preps (Personally to me they are the same as the Lab Blue) , I never liked the Israels but I do like the new German one.
The Blade I can never get along with is the Permasharp , I have tried lots of times but I find whatever it is I am doing with them I nick myself, have often thought maybe it needs a different angle that I don't get right.
@Boycie83 sent me some 7 O'clock Blacks and I love those. That might be it maybe I am trying to use them in too aggressive a razor.I find the Permasharp to be incredibly sharp and like with other blades I like (eg 7 Black) I find it takes a few shaves to get to it's best and for those shaves I pair the blade with the mildest heads I own, eg Souplex Bakelite before using it in a Tech.
But, if that's too much bother then it's not worth the trouble especially when there are is almost an infinity of blades out there!

ell, we now know who we can send our unwanted Personna blades to @NeilJ ... curious you mention PolSilver as a good 'un being a Personna liker; I really don't like them either - 3 star for me, which is down there with Derby and Merkur!
