I have some Tian Li blades and they are wonderful. I bought them a while back, and then they were discontinued. Next, they were back on the market but were duds. I think somebody took advantage of the previously good name and sold crap.I used some Tian Li blades and had the same experiences.
IMO, the worst Chinese made blades are worse than anything else I have tried by a million miles. I felt like I needed to have a tetanus shot after trying to shave with a Tian Li blade.
Surely you don't mean the Bruce Lee cloud blades?Cloud are really bad, and I tried some blades called Admiral which were also terrible but I've not seen them anywhere except the one time on ebay I bought them (very cheap).
Topaz weren't bad shavers but I could barely get a full shave out of a blade. Sometimes I would use two in one shave to get a decent result.
I have no special love of Astra, but I always thought of them as a yardstick. Some blades are not as good as Astra, but some are better.for me, derby extra wren't sharp enough, shark SS were rough and only good for one shave but astra SP are the worst I've used so far. everything else has been alright or great.
No these are probably older. I had a couple a few years ago, I think from Ali express. Red and white pack design if I recall.Surely you don't mean the Bruce Lee cloud blades?
For me, Laser were far better than Topaz, but I don't doubt that bad blades vary in quality. Both are actual blades though, whereas the worst wouldn't cut mustard.No these are probably older. I had a couple a few years ago, I think from Ali express. Red and white pack design if I recall.
I also recall that Wilko, the recently deceased imitator of Woolworths, used to do Laser Platinums and they were pretty terrible.

I really like the shark platinum blades but the SS didn't work for me. I went through a whole 100 box of the half blades years ago but maybe the saloon blades aren't just the same as the DE, just pre snapped? I might try them again sometime.Funnily enough Shark SS are my "go to" when I want a good, reliable shave. I get a week out of them..
