Of the Mostochlegmash blades, the Voskhod seems to be the most popular Russian non PPI blade. IMO, the Vosk isn't as sharp as any of the PPI blades but is one of the most forgiving blades out there.
I like all the PPI blades, I've been using the 7OC Yellow a lot recently which is excellent but on the unforgiving side of things. My favourite for smoothness and sharpness is the Permasharp Super Stainless.
Before ordering the 300 Voskhods, that hopefully will arrive tomorrow (crossing fingers), i had already too many blades, enough to think that i would never buy another. But since people are raving about them, i ordered a tuck. And i was SHOCKED from the WTG pass. This blade, WTG, glides like glass. I couldn't believe it! I mean, i stopped and looked at the razor to make sure that the blade was inserted normally. XTG and ATG wasn't anything i hadn't seen before, but this WTG pass was phenomenal. So i had to order 300 from Russia, because here i would have to pay 56,50 EUR (shipped) from an local online shop, while from Russia, i ended up paying 21,50 EUR shipped, with tracking number. If it wasn't for the fear of customs, i would have ordered more. But, at the end, 300 i think is good enough...
But, seriously, smoothest blade ever WTG... Everyone should try Voskhod just for the WTG pass.
