Yep, @SpeedyPC has it right.
These are a great blade.
I bought 100, liked them so much I went back and bought another 200.
That's not something I would normally do for any blade.
Please don't buy too many though guys. I 'need' another 500 to feel that I have 'enough'.
New Zealand...and I buy the blades on Amazon USA as Amazon Australia wont let me buy them!I'm not sure where you are

Don't the queer sods know that Australia is the outer Western Island of New Zealand?
$22NZD for 100 plus shipping. (That's 11 GBP per 100 plus shipping).
But UK shipping probably dearer than Amazon USA?
Amazon certainly is quick to ship to NZ too.
OK, shipping to NZ is ₤20.
So, a total of ₤57 or $NZD112.
That's not too bad for 500 blades.
Thanks for the link (now...how am I going to sneak those 500 blades in to the den?).
I was thinking maybe some Silver Star too.Spread your bets, get some London Bridge and Super Blues as well.
The new Gillette Minora Stainless is the same as the old Gillette Stainless (red & white) pack.
Old version of the Gillette Stainless (red & white) made directly from Russia is no longer available anymore was original for the Middle East and African countries
New Gillette Minora Stainless made directly from Russia for the Middle East and African countries on the current market. New version is slightly smoother than the old version above as they’re the same.

@SeanC I’ve shaved both blades with Gillette Stainless in the 34C and the Gillette Minora Stainless in the 34G, both Murker razors are the same head.And yet again I will ask just how you know this to be a fact?
...@Bogeyman I bought the last whole bash lifetime supply of Gillette Stainless (red and white) directly from Israel roughly three years ago, when I email the last whole sale supplier directly in Israel is where I got the information from them...
Believe me @Bogeyman they're the same as the rebranded new Gillette Minora Stainless and they're slightly smoother than the old Gillette Stainless. I'm not going to urge against @SeanC saying the old Gillette Stainless is a notch smoother against the new Gillette Minora Stainless..OK, but I also recall people stating similar things a few years back from dists. to gin up sales, e.g., the infamous Polsilver debacle. That's not saying what he told you is untrue, just that this is an industry rife with secrecy & rumors. I have some of the old red, black & white ones from him as well.

Besides I'm very happy to have the old Gillette Stainless (red &white), I don't need the new version of the Minora Stainless.
@donnie_arko I don’t want to hi jack this topic too much, are you fully aware that the Polsilver SI has been rebranded back into the previous package to Wizamet SI brand, the new Wizamet SI pack is in middle see above they’re selling ten blades instead of five both are the same are made from Russia in St Petersburg.

Remember the old Gillette Stainless (red & white) is no longer in production anymore, done and dust.
The Minora Stainless is equally as sharp (at the higher end of the scale along with 7 O'clock Yellows and PSIs etc) as the Gillette Stainless, but definitely a notch smoother.
