The small wax adhesive dots on the blades help keep the protective paper wrapper around the blades, and keep the edge of the blade from the paper itself to avoid dulling the blade before it gets in your hands and into your Leaf Shave razor. This is a standard among high-quality safety razor blade manufacturers, and is not something that we at Leaf Shave have control over. If you find them annoying to deal with, we suggest taking the blade you're replacing (the used blade) and using that to quickly scrape off the wax on the fresh blades before loading them up.
