    I got a very nice shave from this blade. It's sharp, smooth and overall provided me with a really nice shave. It didn't stand out for me like the Astra SS, Astra SP, Rapira SS, Gillette Silver Blue or Personal Lab Blue did. If I had a top 10 list of favorite blades, these would probably go somewhere in the 6-10 range. Fine blade !!!

    I'm glad they worked out for you. It seems the winner of the 3 was the Rapira SS though. Also surprisingly the cheapest of the three. Usually $5.5 to $6.5 per hundred on the bay

    I've purchased Wilkinson sword blades for under $1.00 per pack of 5.

    There are two versions still in production the
    Wilkinson Sword classic made in Germany,

    The OP was reviewing the Indian version. I will be testing the classic for the first time tomorrow
