I am not against Muzzy's, they have a phenomenal record but I will say that I believe their edge quality is not what it used to be, nor many other companies. There was not one muzzy factory fresh that we took out of the box that did not need some extra sharpening. They cryo treat the silver flames which gives them an amazing edge holding ability. I know a guy that sends his razor to a company that cryo treats them and swears by it saying he can get 10 times the life out of them.
