WilkinsonSword Double Edge Blade 5 in Pack ( Pack of 6) 30 Razors Total

These razors hold a good edge, but the razor itself is a little flimsier than what I'm used to. I'm no expert, but I'm guessing there's less steel and more aluminum in the alloy used to make them. Also, the box they come in doesn't have a slot on the back for spent razors to be held until disposal, so you either have to save the paper wrapping each comes in (as if you were saving a gum wrapper) or find some other way to deal with a bunch of double-edge razors loose in the bag when you take out the trash.

I often used the Israeli Perssona Red blades, but wanted to give this a shot since I do love Wilinson's travel razors. This was a bit too close for comfort. I shave sans-cream, so that could have added to the difference, but if you want a close shave, this could be what you're looking for. 4 Starts because you can't give a bad review for a razor, faces are very different.

I switched to SE blades a year or so ago. It is all I'll use from now on. I defaultyed to a name (Wilkenson Sword) that I remember hearing in the old days. That's how I made the pick. The price was right, so...

Not my favorite but pretty damned good.They cut well both with the grain, against the grain, and across the grain.That's more than I can say for some of the blades I purchased.

Same as the ones you buy at walmart, I gave them all awayThe Personna blades for the same price, are much better

Wilkinson Swords are my favorite blades. They aren't insanely sharp like Japanese Feathers, yet sharper than any other ones I've tried. I might try Merkur next, but this pack of 30 will last awhile. I seem to get five to seven shaves from a Wilkinson, comfortably. I like shaving with a sharp blade and can tell when it needs replacing with my instinct. I'm sure thick beards get even fewer shaves than that out of one sword! If I used one blade for ten shaves, I wouldn't have such a good time. Maybe I'm just particular, but six shaves is about the average lifespan!

I've been going back and forth between the Wilkinson Sword blades, Feathers, and the Merkur Platinum blades. The Wilkinsons seem to hit the sweet spot between sharpness and smoothness.

My husband has used this brand for many (I mean many) years and was lucky to find them on Amazon. He is happy with these blades.
