I have been using Gillette Fusion 5 Blades since 2006. I have observed that the quality of blades now has gone down (Just finished my huge stock of old blades) - On my new purchase I was shocked that just after 3 shaves my skin starting hurting. Was wandering if Chinese fake product has got into the mainstream. I changed the blade and it made no difference. Even the handle was not as good as my original one I got for free as marketing through my letter box. Maybe there is more focus on making profit and footballer's advertisement fees than focus on quality. Disappointed with my purchase.
