Hi, I would be interested in people's view of these.
I have just finished working my way through a pack or five (same as these: http://www.traditionalshaving.co.uk/en/Razor-Blades/4510466-Wilkinson-Sword-Double-Edge-Razor-Blades.html) and to be honest I doubt I'll bother using the second pack I have.
It was a real treat last night when I switched to a Shark blade in my R41.
The WS blades were used in both my R89 and R41. In the R89 they just seemed below average. The shaves just weren't that great. In the R41 the effect was more obvious. They seemed to have the odd mixture of not cutting the hair that closely, but still trying to get the skin below!
They seemed to go off quickly too. They were noticeably blunt after the second shave in the R89 (I usually use a blade three times in the R89, or twice in the R41).
Prep and technique were as usual, and if anything improving while I went back to basics again over the holidays. The improvement when I used a Shark was instant.
They not a cheap blade either....
