Clean shave. Best value for money

Definitely one of the best blades. I was so used to using Dorco blades that I thought I was holding the handle at the wrong angle when shaving with it.

Pros
  • Platinum coated stainless steel
Cons
  • Expensive

WS has been great for a long time, but my dollar razor blades that I use on the go give me a better shave than my safety razor. That is

Pros
  • High quality Russian blades suitable for all types of single and double edge safety razors
Cons
  • Doubtful
