Until about 2 years, I have only shaved wet with these blades, since I switched to an electric dry shaver, keep me during the week fairly good services. If you want to clean 100%, then I reach but still prefer my Gilette Mach 3, therefore a blade holds quite a long with me, because I do not often use. The blades come in handy plastic holder that can be clipped to the back of the Gillette Rasuererhalters. With shaving, I am always very satisfied. Even in comparison eg against a Gillette Fusion I find the result better and the blades are cheaper as a rule. I am more than happy for years and can only recommend this blade.
