Personna Med Prep...whoops, not a candidate. Still recommend.

 

Feather

 

I'll take that as a vote for the Lab Blue then

 

Personna lab blue is my vote!

 

You seem confused. Obviously none of you blades made a lasting impression on you. So, buy some Gillette 7 O'clock Yellows, and you wont be confused about which blade to choose anymore.

 

Rapira Lux always work for me.

 

Treet Platinum

 

Personna Lab Blue

 

Astra SS if you want a comfortable blade

 

No so, Im just working through the masses. I love GSB's and Astra SP's, the sharks and the Rapira SS were meh. I wont be buying them in the future

 

Rapira Platinum Lux's always gives me great shaves.

 

I'm just looking for any reason to promote Gillette 7 O'clock Yellows, because they are about the best I have ever used, as far as sharpness, smoothness, and longevity. And I've used about every to p tier blade out there, as well as several great vintage blades.

 

I vote for the Treet silver, that way you can let us know how they are before I try mine.

 

Nope, Med Preps still receives my vote.
Second place Polsilver SI (also not on your list)

 

Well darn

 

Don't frown, I just gave you the two best blades available. Smile.

 

Well, I guess thats 3 more tucks of blades that I need to buy. Luckily, blades are easy to hide! I was actually going to order the SI's last time but they were out of stock

 

My vote goes for the Rapira Swedish Supersteel......great shave!

 

Rapira Platinum Lux if limited to the list.
