Highly doubtful, I always ship a couple to my next destination. Never had a problem with my handle, although I've had a lot of agents confused as to why I'm still using a "Grandpa" razor

Good price but these blades really don't work for me. Very iritating. Much better shave from Derby blades as a low price option.

I would say from what I have read, they are are possibly a 3rd or fourth place to feathers in sharpness. But when judging on price/sharpness/number of shaves, they rate high in all areas.

Dorco's are a few dimes more. $10 is not a lot of money to spend in general.
Also, it depends on what/who it is that you shave.

Buy one of those Handles, Put a Razor Blade inside, Use the Shaving Cream and Brush listed. And you are good to go. Many videos online, and you will get the hang of it with a couple of shaves.

It depends on a lot of factors, skin, skill, time, etc. Great for some, not so good for others.
Don't worry about old skool, very few people ever see you shaving. The end result is what matters.
