Let's get one thing clear before we start - this soap only exists in my den because of @Bogeyman - a beautiful piece of long distance enabling..
Razor = Feather AS-D2
Blade = Gillette Super Slim Platinum
Brush = Yaqi 24mm Sagrada Familia
Soap = Ariana & Evans Kaizen
Splash = Same As Above
Balm = L’oréal Barberclub.
Another Brilliant shave due to the first use on this blade.
I’ll make a bold statement and say it’s a straight 10 & Certainly the best blade iv tried.
All the blades i bought on the last batch have been excellent. Gillette Blue, London Bridge,
Winner Platinum & now this.
i could have got away with a 2 shave pass no problem but the wife had the heating on full blast so it was three passes & a pick up just t keep me out the way.
Man i’m scottish i’m not used to these tropical temperatures.
Woman ah a breed apart lol

first time use for me mate and was pleasantly surprisedI agree with the sentiment on the Gillette super slim platinum, of all the Gillette blades I have, it’s my favourite
Something nice about the smoothness of them alright! I think they must be one of the noisiest blades around too( ?!) which I enjoy!Nothing at all crappy about Voskhod blades - they're not as sharp as say, some Gillette offerings, but they're smooth and good for three shaves per blade.
They've performed flawlessly in every razor I've used them in. I found them to be my blade of choice in the Rockwell 6C.
Long may the good batches last! I'm glad it's not just me who likes em! Funny enough, I had just ordered a bunch of blades to try, hoping to figure out a go-to blade for the 89 and for the slant. But like you, I'm also thinking the Voskhod may be the ones; for the slant anyway...... these dusty old things I've had for yonks!What @Paul L said. I'm still working through a swathe of different blades I got in December, but the Voskhod is very much in the running to be my go-to. Decent performance for daily use - I'm yet to get a duff batch as has been suggested to be a regular occurrence, so maybe I'm still biased!
