yeah got the Tigers but not used them yet, defo give them a go next weekI see you have a pack of the excellent Tiger Platinums! Very high quality blades, made in the same factory that previously produced Astra SP.
cheers Bob. so far iv only used two blades and each time has only been three times. although i'm new to DE iv always used soap & brushes even with the cartridge stuff. don't think iv ever used a blade more than 4 timesDon't try and push the blade for one more shave, they are cheap and it is not worth it when starting out, you will learn when you need a new blade before it becomes a problem, I would honestly do 3 shaves and bin it, get your consistency and confidence up, as you progress you might get 6 shaves out one blade, everyone is slightly different, but 100% knowing your blade is as sharp as possible gives you a feel for that blade...don't wait till it pulls and cuts you .
is that the 7 o'clock's you mean ?Gillette Yellows,Greens and Blacks and Iridiums. But you have a fine selection of blades there. I am a fan of the Voskhods.
Nice 1 cheers i'll give them a goThai Gillette Super Thins all the way. Pretty much the only DE blade I use anymore. I find them super smooth and efficient, i get them from Razor Blades Club usually.
