You can read about my thoughts from the first time I tried this blade: https://www.theshavingroom.co.uk/co...iday-22nd-april-2022.56542/page-2#post-874531 but what I'm interested in this time is the comment I made that it is like a Pakistani VOSKHOD ... and so, after just enjoying three shaves with a VOSKHOD it's a perfect opportunity to check that.
... and yes, it is. It is a sharp stainless blade and smooth, made so with a super-glide of teflon. Compared, the Muster Dickson is a degree better than the VOSKHOD. Again, it really is up there as one of the best stainless blades (to my face, anyway) and remains an enigma because whoever makes this blade really ought to be selling more of them.
I remember seeing those blades for sale at TVBShaving (RIP), and via B&B I came across this
The old ones look like they are Personna Israeli Crystals. The markings on the new ones look like they could be ones made by Treet. However seeing how some the new Personna Tomy blades are made, where the blades themselves are made in Germany but then packaged (maybe printed as well?) in the Czech Republic, there could be a chance that these blades are made in Germany then sent to Pakistan to be packaged or printed, who knows for sure?
What I have just spotted is that the blades (both the black and the white packs) are labelled A on one side and B on the other rather than 1234. This is exactly how Treet are now labelling their blades.
