Hmmm ... sure that's a valid link? I can't find them by going through the main page to blades and can't find Schick in the manufacturers list.

Valid link alright. @Paul announced it here. Maybe the web site needs a bit more updating.

Great news indeed, then.

Available yes but I am cheap so a bit pricey for my liking will stick to Personnas from same vendor.

Have you tried the Schick blades? They play in a different league. YMMV and such...

Hi there,

So how much more per shave are we talking about? To me it would be worth the small extra amount to get the best shave possible. Only get one chance a day so why not make that experience the most rewarding? After all, it's not like buying another high end razor or expensive brush.

Your call of course.

How many shaves do you guys normally get from a Chinese Schick blade?

Hiya,

So let's figure with shipping included, a Chick blade will run about $1.50. That means six good shaves runs 25 cents each. Even if the Personna blade's half of that price or even a little less, we are talking about pennies more per shave. Hell, everyone's worth spending that tiny extra amount on if the experience is gonna be better. Oh, not just better but noticeably better.

Plus don't forget to compare the Chick to what a popular cartridge costs per use......huge difference there.

Paul doesn't seem to have linked them in to the main page yet. He announced this yesterday in his Vendors Forum.

I was lucky and got some from USA at less than £ 5 per pack , generally they are more expensive. Think Connaughts price is fair. Next would be nice if he got the Japanese Schicks [ single & twin ]

Will try my Schick G, Pal and Schick Adjustable with Personna blades and if not happy with the result flip razors to the Chick crowd
