No, but a few posts out there say that there not a bad blade, have you tried one yet :?:

The main reason is that they are made over here really, or used to be :roll:

I also bagged 200 of these off ebay,just used one and i have to admit,i'm impressed,smooth and sharp,i like red ip's and these remind me of them but perhaps a tad sharper.
If you can get hold of some i recommend you do.

Just popped one of these in an old Gillette open comb Frankenrazor and was very impressed indeed. Very smooth and as sharp as a sharp thing.

I think these may be one to look out for and stock up on if they ever appear again.

Just to let you know I contacted the Ebay seller of these and he told me he had 1700 left and he has a new auction up there now

He has 500 less than he had coz they are dirt cheap and one of the best I have tried in my short DE career.

 

[pedro083]

A couple hundred less now as well hope they are good.

I really liked them - but I am a bit of a newbie to this DE malarky

 

[pedro083]

Well they went fast. Just looked back out of curiosity and all gone. :roll:

It would be intresting to see what the guy that started the thread thought of the blades not seen them on bst so assume all good

They are superb blades, i contacted the guy (Rob) a few days ago and asked if he could get some more and list as i told him they would go quick, i got 7 boxes for myself before he listed them, so i have 900 of these puppies now (well 899 :shave )

They are nice smooth blades, very sharp, and they are over 20 years old, for £5.00 a box (can't be bad at all !)

Nothing worse than a load of blades you dont like.
