1.0 out of 5 stars Beware these knockoff blades!, July 8, 2009

I read about some other Gilette Mach3 Turbo blades which were fake. I read the reviews here and decided to order these, which seem like a steal. I knew something was wrong when I couldn't get them to snap very snugly onto my Mach 3, but I shrugged it off and attempted to shave. The shave is terrible! I don't have super thick hair, but I found it impossible to rinse the hair out of the blades using my normal techniques (hold it backwards under running water, or swish it back and forth in a cup of warm water). Further, it fell off my Mach 3 mid-shave. I threw these away, and out of the same wastebasket I retrieved an old, discarded -- but AUTHENTIC -- blade, and shaved with it instead.

I don't know if those other reviews were written based on a different stock, but as of now (July 2009), these blades are a ripoff/knockoff.

Glad I found these at a better price than local stores. Unfortunately they were DULL from the first shave. I tried two blades from one package and one blade from the other 5-pack with the same results, a very rough, scratchy shave. Not at all like Mach3 blades purchased from local stores. I'm not sure what the problem is but I'd be very apprehensive about purchasing !! Usually new blades are very sharp and give a smooth shave, not these !

These are so dull they are unusable!! Had to return them. Like a lot of the reviews say, these are NOT real, original blades. Pull out a real one and look at the blades closely and you can see the blades on these are not the same shape and size- probably resharpened and worn down like a lot of the other reviews suggest. That's pretty gross too, I really don't need to be using a razor that someone else has used. Please stop using this seller!!!!
