Dorco Upping Their Game

[Bogeyman]

Dorco has introd a couple new blades recently, Prime and now their even newer Titan blades. Let me state that I have used their older ST-300 & ST-301 blades before and while "serviceable", they were definitely 2nd tier stuff. I am testing a Prime now and it is definitely a different and better blade. One famous Youtube reviewer rated it above the Astra SP interestingly. I have not made a final verdict yet on this one.

I see their newest blade, Titan (Double Coated), is for sale in the UK at Connaught Shaving as is the Prime. I have no affiliation with them so don't think of this as "shilling" for them. Perhaps it is even better?

Update: this Prime is a two shave maximum blade. It fell off the cliff on the third. The friend who gifted me this blade got the exact same result.

Astra SP's are junk compared to the Dorco Primes.!

These were up for my next work rotation, and whilst better than a couple I have tried I will not be keeping them, have gave the rest out for others to try but also gave them some some astras and gsb as way of an apology, they have been warned that I didn't get on with them though

Its a 2 shave for you but, I get 15 shaves per blade. Heavy beard types get less shaves per blade.
