Injector razors and blades

Today I broke out my ol' Schick M Model adj. and on a whim loaded one of those NOS Schick Platinum blades made in Holland. The resultant shave was very good, but I have to be honest in that IMO the current Schick Proline B-20 blade is smoother, i.e., sharper. As a matter of fact the "Chick" blade I used in my G Model two days ago shaved smoother. It makes sense as blade coatings/sputtering have progressed tremendously in the past few decades and the Japanese Schick website touches on that when describing the Proline blades. I cannot see any reason for me to buy any other SE blade nowadays but the Proline and the "Chick" as they are simply fantastic.
 
I just used a Schick G Model loaded with a twice used "Chick" blade and stored for months to scythe through a five day beard. Yes, the Proline B-20 is a better blade, but not light years ahead of the Chinese made Schick one to be honest. They both eliminate any blade guesswork for an injector for sure!! ;)

But they can work out cheaper for us in UK
