I have a theory that they were actually introduced to reduce the perceived life of the blade, because my blades stay sharp long after the moisture strip is degraded. However I find I run into more irritation if its degraded, I partially solve this by putting a thin strip of headblade shave product along the strip before and after every shave.

My local ABC affiliate does a "does it work" segment from time to time testing out things you see on TV. They just did one on this and they gave it a thumbs up (meaning it works and is worth the money).Could you do a search of the channel that it was on and post a link to it?
Thanks for the video review Hookem......It may not be the NASA approved product review that some people need, but for under $20.00, it may be worth a try.
$1.00 a replacement bald x 50 blades per year = $50.00
lets say you get 7 more shaves a blade....thats a 50% savings
$1.00 a replacement blade x 25 blades a year = $25.00

I was commenting on the wording and the sample length of the review.
"Clip your blade face down on the sharpener and hold the button down for five seconds.
Philip immediately notices the edges of the blades look shinier. "
Now everybody is free to spend their money as they see fit.
If a member here want to purchase this device and post a proper long term review we'd have a better idea of it's merits.
If it was in a store, I'd buy it. I'm not buying anything off of television infomercials again after Time Life tried to send a bunch of country cds that I didn't order.
Here is what I found out from talking to someone in the blade business. The Save A Blade basically "strops" the blade, which is what a barber used to do with his razor before shaving you. (For us oldies who remember back then). There are two big issues here, first is that the stropping takes off the coating from the blades leaving a bare metal surface, even though it removes the burs which is what dulls the blade. The second is that it only removes this from one side of the blade, meaning there are burs on the back side.
While this sounds great, it could really be problematic for the users. Remember if it sounds to goo to be true, it probably isn't
