Gillette London Bridge

Thanks for the update and everyone will know is the real deal, always look for a manufacturers date to keep track when the blade was made.
My 200 blades from the U.K. vendor on E Bay apparently have no date code , they are packed differently too , in tucks of 5 , they have a outer envelope on the blade itself (so two wrappers) and the sleeve is more like a standard sleeve as opposed to the box my first lot came in .
The blades themselves look identical , the only difference being one has a O and the other a M printed on it .
Hopefully they are the real deal .

Can you please post some complete pictures, so @Bogeyman and myself to have a closer look, while I do some investigation and research online to find out if they’re real or not.
 
Blades arrived this afternoon, there is a code on one end of the box, and the edges of the blade are numbered!
What do you guys think? Cheers Paul

I ordered 3x5 blades and they arrived yesterday, they're okay but to be honest I prefer the Gillette winner blades that I got from India 12 months ago!

The Gillette Winner Blacks are wolves in sheep's clothing, they seem fairly inconspicuous in feel during the shave but still produce exceptional results.

I think they are underrated in the Gillette line up.

The five blade pack looks a little different than the ten blade pack above the first topic, just be extra careful buying the new London Bridge blade online, otherwise, you could get yourself caught out IF they’re not the real deal.
 
That was covered earlier in the thread and is due to origin point of exportation, i.e., Malaysia vs. Vietnam.

The seller on UK Ebay who has all the new MIC blades I noticed sold the Super Thin's in 6 and 12 packs.

And you can see the picture of the 6 pack on Ebay.

I think Mike Smart and S93 have used these blades bought from this seller and rate them very highly.

mine arrived in the '12 pack', which basically includes 2 packs of 6 - I haven't used them yet but might pop one in tomorrow as next blade to try
