Question about blades?
I started out shaving with a D/E when I was 14 or 15. I lost that razor some time after boot camp, and switched to disposables, with a short dalliance with electric razors. Until recently I had not shaved with a D/E in a long time.
When I was using the D/E (35 years ago) I used Wilkinson Sword blades. All I can get locally are dollar store blades and other generic ones from different drugstores, etc.
So I'm contemplating ordering a large quantity online.
My question is, for those of you who have used them for a very long time, are the present Wilkinson comparable in quality to the ones I used 35 years ago?
I know someone's going to chime in with"Get a sample pack of various brands and try them". I'll pass. If I do that I could end up not liking half of them. I'd rather stick to something I'm familiar with.
If it matters they'll be going in this razor.
Yeah, that's a Lady Gillette.
If the Wilkinsons are not what they used to be, recommendations are welcome. Even the sample packs.
