Nice review on these bladesI finally gave Lord's Rainbow DE Blades a first try today...
View attachment 79167
They come in a similar high quality card box and paper wrapping, that Lord's Sharks do - 4 colour, varnished, heavy card outer, with a thick glossy inner paper wrapping - , with the "Rainbow" branding printed prominently on the blade. The blade itself has an unusual copper hue and the inner wrapper appears slightly larger than need be. I head and face shave daily, starting with my head, ATG. I so much wanted these blades to perform as I love the graphics and Lord's Sharks, Silver Star and Asco orange fit me like a glove...alas the blade failed to perform, it struggled to cut one day's hair growth on my head. I ended up switching out the blade for an Asco — normal service was resumed. Lord's Rainbow's received a lot of love about 10 yrs ago, so I am at a loss as to why it did not perform for me, as I can usually make any blade work and can not recall switching out a blade. It maybe the blade edges were damaged in transit (certainly not during unwrapping as I exercise care when unwrapping a blade; Lord has downgraded the blade; they are not genuine Lord blades; poorly stored / old perished stock or I just had an off day. I will give them another go but my perception of these blades may already be coloured. The one positive was that it confirmed how good Lord's Sharks, Silver Star and Asco's work for me.
I remember watching some YouTuber who mentioned these rainbows as his number one favourite blade
Got the lord range in my sampler pack but yet to try them them,
think I read a thread on b&b rating the lord silver stars as really good but blades as you know YMMV
