I'm sure these blades have had plenty of airtime on this and other forums but I'm confused.
I was recently and very kindly gifted a pack of Lodz when I bought a razor from @RussellR5555 and also have a Super Iridium blade to try out as well but this is where I'm stuck.
Are they the same blade, just made in different eras or are they completely different? Was the Lodz discontinued then the Super Iridium come out or were they in production together?
Thanks
I suppose I am one of the few who does not get on with them. The wizamet on the other hand is a very nice blade for me, strange as they are supposed to be very similar.
Useful to know this as well and also where can these be bought from?Without wanting to take the thread off topic, is the general consensus that the new (Russian 2018/19 onwards) Wizamets are rebranded Polsilver SIs?

Thanks Shubs. It's difficult to find a poor PPI blade (IMO)There seems to be a little debate on whether the PPI Wizamet SI's are the same blade as the PPI Polsilver SI's. Some believe it is exactly the same blade, others think there is a difference.
There have been a few issues with counterfeit Wizas as well, there were a few that cropped up on the B&B thread about them.
I've only used the PPI Polsilver SI which I find to be a good blade for sure and like a few other PPI blades (Nacet, Permasharp SS) I really like I find it performs at it's best with a few shaves under it's belt, and at that point in my razors and with a good lather I find the differences between these 3 blades to be minor.
I've not used a Lodz Polsilver though, Paul BladeMonkey sent me a few and I am looking forward to using them.
