The Feather blades are ground keener than other blades. The Refined Shave (no longer around) did sharpness testing (using a BESS tester) of a number of DE blades and Feather tested as the keenest. However, great keenness is accompanied by great edge fragility. The reduction in keenness from the first to second shave was the largest that was tested as well. I use Feather, btw.
The world of Linux is another nerdy community
It is at that! As an embedded systems guy, “I use Yocto, btw”. … for a target Linux OS. For host development, I use whatever distribution is easiest for me to run as a VM under VirtualBox.
