I've been looking forward to these for a long time, they're part of why I got into injectors in the first place. They arrived yesterday and I tried one out in my I2 Hydromagic that night. I would describe them as "decisive yet forgiving", at least as sharp as the Chicks but much gentler on my face. I had struggled to find and keep an angle on the Chicks that cut well enough without irritating my skin, but it was much easier with the Prolines. I can't imagine wanting or needing anything else for my shave besides the I2 and these blades, and that's a nice problem to have, although I wish they'd start making them in a keyed dispenser in case my Chick dispenser ever wears out, because I don't ever want to have to buy more Chicks after this.

Lined up perfectly on the first try. And I do also have a pack of the Personna mini shaper blades to try if I get bored.

Thanks for this review....I've only tried the Chicks and your experience with them mirrors mine. I've been hesitant to try the Prolines because of the need to load them into another cartridge -- I'm kind of a baby about doing that kind of stuff -- but it sounds like the experience is more than worth the trouble. I'm also curious to hear if they have the same (or better) longevity as the Chicks.
