...I have been told that the Platinum has replaced the Polsilver which is not currently in production, and has not been made since 2015/16.
Luckily there is a big demand for Personna DE for industrial use, even though the Platinum Chrome are packed in 10's, 99% are not used for shaving. The German ones will be different, they will try to make them the same but they won't be able to. Silver Blues made in France, Czech Rep & Russia are all different but made to the same spec. Gillette Platinums made in Brazil are different to the Russian ones. Personna Platinum Chrome are one of the most popular blades for Connaught.
...For me the 7 o'clock Sharp Edge and the dark blue Platinum are the best currently made. I have been told that the Platinum has replaced the Polsilver...
...It would be interesting to trial them side by side with the light blue version. I can swap a collection of Gillette blades of for say 20 of these, if anyone wants to trade.
They should be, Gillette have a Platinum/Super Platinum spec, their premium option. That's why the Super Iridium/Polsilvers are often great, they are the premium blade for the Eastern Europe market. These light blue Platinums should just be different packaging so the only difference would be production years, as long as they're Russian made. My current dark blue Platinums are new, after 2017 as they're single wrapped and etched on one side. It would be interesting to trial them side by side with the light blue version. I can swap a collection of Gillette blades of for say 20 of these, if anyone wants to trade.
