Mine haven't turned up yet as well as 2 other packages that are late. Maybe York are having major issues at the moment
Good thing, too. I shall be trying one tomorrow in my Homelike OC .90, which should be interesting.Mine arrived this morning!
Sputnik is awesome for me in an R41.................Why don't you use them? Almost all Gillette DE blades are great and even their lowly Sputnik is a good "service" grade blade IMO. I can only think of one I didn't like: their Vietnam market Super Thin Platinum.
Any more reports on this new lil' jewel of a blade? I had six perfect shaves on the first one before I switched to another blade type. At least for me blades "die" between six & seven shaves.
Good to hear. Which other PPI blade would you say it most resembles?
Mine arrived this morning along with the other bits I was waiting on.
Just given one a try in my Razorock GC .84, unsurprisingly for a Russian Gillette blade it was a good shave. Had 3 days growth and it felt sharp and smooth, didn't have any irritation or weepers.
First use of the Minora today. It was hard to gauge as I used it in the Henson which I'm nonplussed with. It performed the same as the KCG blade that was in there before it. The Henson is back in the rack and the Minora installed in my desert island razor, the ATT S1, for a proper assessment.

The Henson seemed to be quite popular on ATG, any particular reasons why it's not working out for you so far?First use of the Minora today.
