Greetings,
Fourth use of the Bluebird Platinum blade before it's binned The bluebird platinum blade performance throughout the week hasn't impressed me at all which is a great shame because i had high hopes for them, going on the performance of the concord platinum blade which are made in the same factory.The characteristics of these blades are just like the derby extra, which unfortunately for me are the only blade that i don't like using as i find them very unpredictable.YMMV..
My instinct feelings with the bluebird platinum blades is they are repackaged derby extra's with a different name.That said, they didn't give me any major nicks or irritation,and i can't really call them bad blades, as i've only used one out of the pack and the rest could possibly be ok, but i won't be putting them in my blade rotation in the foreseeable future because i have blades that i know will perform much better and are not unpredictable.The rest of the pack i've discarded into my used blade tin....A lesson learned experience for me.
Next week i'll be trying out a Trig (blue/white pack) Stainless Silver edge for the full week testing it's longevity & performance.
Another very hit & miss average 3 pass + pick ups shave with no errors to report.
Finishing the shave off with a generous splash of Herbs Of Bulgaria ~ Lavender A/S Lotion.
I hope you all enjoyed the summer solstice yesterday ladies & gentlemen.
