Rev-O Messages 2,656 Tuesday May 8, 2012 #1 Hi All Just a note to say I've been using a Shark blade I think I got it from Tony (antdad) and am very pleasantly surprised by it. Not too sharp, very forgiving, smooth shaving. Not the best results (<BBS) but a very good choice for newbies or aggressive razors. A decent, safe and user-friendly blade. Recommended. Cheers

Mikael Messages 4,260 Tuesday May 8, 2012 #2 Yeah, I used to like the Shark SS a lot - it's not super sharp, but enough.
IanM Messages 4,630 Tuesday May 8, 2012 #3 I find the Super Chrome version to be really very good. Ian

chrisbell Messages 6,299 Location Norfolk, England Tuesday May 8, 2012 #5 I like the Stainless as well - a good, comfortable shave in my 34c.
Johnus Messages 5,246 Tuesday May 8, 2012 #6 Have used both. Good all round blades. Nicely priced too.

fatboyslimfast Messages 184 Location Where the M4 crosses the M5 in England. Wednesday May 9, 2012 #8 Interesting. I tried a shark stainless and found it "ok", nothing outstanding. I have a shark Chrome, so will try that in the morning...

antdad Messages 10,991 Wednesday May 9, 2012 #9 The super chrome is superior, not necessarily sharper but smoother.
Sir_eider Messages 927 Location Madrid, Spain Wednesday May 9, 2012 #10 I tried a couple of Shark blades some time ago (not Chrome version) and I didn't like them much... They weren't enough sharp for my beard and I only could use them in two shaves each (at third shave they were almost unusable...) Cheers!
