ive noticed a lot of vintage english blades come from sheffiled, is it due to it being known as the steel city? loolSome Neepsend double edge blades. Never heard of these and nothing on the internet about them; just stuff about the place in Sheffield (Neepsend specifically) that made them.
Had a shave with one today and initial impressions are sharp and for a non-coated blade (they are marked simply as stainless steel) pretty good. I have quite a sensitive face so prefer coated blades.
Will update the review spreadsheet in due course and welcome any insight or opinions on these blades. There's already lots of information about Sheffield steel manufacturers.

I saved pound coins for months to be able to afford this. The granddaughter's piggy banks were a bugger to get in to.

I've just had an email telling me I'm on the 2023 waiting list but if anyone drops off the 22 list then I will be offered one earlier.Received my confirmation this evening so hopefully get yours soon.
When I first saw these I thought 'Yes. A must have'. My wife thought 'Fuck you'
I didn't buy just three blades. I put the others away but here a few I took out. I know @pjgh is a fan of the Rhino. I'm not sure why but the picture of an animal being cut by a blade is one I take some pleasure in seeing.

I have some of the Dettol shaving cream. Drop me a message if you would like to try it and i will send you a sampleSo grabbed those Nivea Menmalist sensitive liquid shaving craams yesterday and had a mail call today
fancied trying out the Gillette and old spice shading creams, unfortunately the seller only had the musk old spice shaving cream and these are from India originally but a UK seller
Made me laugh when I saw the youtuber Donald youngster (think that's his name) trying out the Dettol shaving cream and I really want to try out the Dettol shaving
Some really cool stuff out there from all over the world
