Gillette London Bridge

mine arrived in the '12 pack', which basically includes 2 packs of 6 - I haven't used them yet but might pop one in tomorrow as next blade to try

Ah cheers for the info.

Is this 12 pack a new type of packaging? Photos please, sir.

I've taken mine out of the big pack, but it was the same as on the seller's picture (I think it's a new one, since when I placed an order I don't remember seeing the saloon pack. Will still have a look whether the outer packaging might not made it to the bin yet!
)

I tried to upload the picture but it didn't work. Here is another attempt.

Had a shave this morning with Gillette super thin - excellent shaver IMO - even ATG I didn’t have much tugging (coarse stubble ) what I normally do experience with Astra sp.

For me they’re really comparable to nacet, maybe even a tad smoother

First go with the London Bridge this morning (and in SOTD).
Blade felt really nice, perhaps not quite as smooth as my default Astra but felt nice, sharp but not harsh.
I’m not shaving daily just now, so comparisons is difficult but it probably felt similar to a Nacet, which may not be too surprising.
Pretty sure they are the genuine article and at £8.99 for 100 a real bargain
Cheers all
Paul

Been using one last three shaves in a Leaf, great combination. These blades are a steal at £8.99 posted from eBay.

In fact decided to order another 100, before they all get snapped up.

First time shaving with a Chinese London Bridge blade today. I like it better than "Shanghai Blue". Let's see how it works in other razors.

..."Shanghai Blue"...

Now that is a catchy name!! Vates, you've earned your keep this month!!

My favourite blade has always been GSB yet lately I've found myself reaching for the Shanghai London Bridge - particularly to try new razors. Dare I say it, I think these may be my new favourite blade.

First shave using A&E Frozen Mojitos soap and the RazoRock Game Changer .68 head. Well, I hate to "gild the lily" but simply fantastic!! No earthly question that these are bona fide.

On another note I will plug an AS that I used today that is very interesting: https://phoenixartisanaccoutrements...ologne-homage-to-the-original-seaforth-spiced

Boy, does this baby burn!! To quote the maker:

The Diver Down Soap Is superb also
