Personna Platinum are my go to in most razors but I have many, many different blades that I rotate through.
I just tried some newly acquired blue box Gillette Platinums this morning in a Slim. Early to tell, but I'm pretty impressed. Sharp enough and smooth, smoother than 7 O'Clock yellows I've been using recently. I think you can make a lot of razors work, but these might be my new go to blades.
I am on my third one of the Blue Box ones and I am starting to wonder if just maybe......perhaps Gillette has improved the coating a tad. I am not quite ready to say yea or nay.
Yeah, I'm not fully convinced yet, but this morning was another win for these blades. I tried one on its third use in my user grade Gillette HD500. This thing is a beast of a razor, very easy to make a mistake with and the Gillette Plats took the edge off just enough. Keep me posted on how you get on.
