    Default Rapira Platinum Lux-Edged Out Rapira & Voskhod

    I just finished testing a new blade to me, the Rapira Platinum Lux. I always use the same process when testing new blades: 4 shaves back to back in the Gillette Slim set on 6. I really like the Rapira Swedish Supersteel and Voskhod’s, but the Lux has edged both of them out by a hair for me. I had four excellent shaves: smooth, close, and nick free. There was not even the hint of a tug. At about $0.17/blade shipped, they are right up there in the “Best Bang for the Buck”.

    As always, YMMV.

    Lince ,do you like them more than say,, the Gillette 7 o,clock I've only tried 3 blades in my entire shaving career. I know different blades for everyone ,, just curious if you had an opinion between the 2 blades. I'm always willing to try a product that is recommended. Thanks. Tc

    Which 7 O'Clock?

    I do like them as much as most of the 7 O'Clocks, to answer your question.
