Duly enabled, thanks for the heads-up! Although it's my avatar I've only tried the regular (Stainless) Racer's, looking forward to trying the Platinum (class) version.La Barbiera have Racer Super Platinum and Rainbow on offer for £3.99 for a 100.

Paul have you used these? What were your thoughts?
CLEARANCE - 100 Racer Double Edge Blades
We are trying to have a clear out to condense our range of razor blades. These are Racer branded double edge blades, made by Lord International. 100 Double Edge Blades, packed in 5s in a cardboard tuck. Please note due to restrictive postage costs, we will ship as 20 individual tucks, without...labarbiera.co.uk
I have indeed! Yes, I like 'em a lot! If we're really splitting hairs, I'd say it's "a classy Lord Platinum".House of Lords
Website https://www.lordshave.net/ I've used Lord blades for a good number of years, but within the last few months I have run the entire Lord house back-to-back in the same razor ... and then revisited a number in the same razor and alternative razors. I've been over and over how the heck to...www.theshavingroom.co.uk
@pjgh yes you have!
I found them about on a par with the regular Lord Stainless and/or the OK Stainless branding ... which is not bad thing. They're a sound, good and honest Super (Class) Stainless blade. Tempted, but I think I'm just going to bag the Racer Platinum deal as I have a LOT of Lord Stainless class blades.I used a couple of Rainbow a few years ago and found them to be pretty good blades.
Dammit, it's those blades that are only properly finished on one edge: https://www.theshavingroom.co.uk/community/threads/big-ben-differential-edge-sharpness.46390/Mine just arrived, which is pretty good going. Unfortunately recently started a new blade, but I look forward to trying these some time next week.
From the text on the back of the tucks, I think these were intended for the Turkish market.

Only half the bargain it first appeared! Hopefully the Rainbows others have bought are ok - the only tuck of Rainbows I ever tried were fine. Historically they were a Sotraco brand rather than Lord, which may have made a difference.
