I usually just bin most DE blades after 3 shaves, I picked up some NOS Wilkinson Sword blades and I decided if they were good then I would see how far they go as I only have a limited supply. Well I have been really impressed with the blade, it is the first NOS one I have tried, I don't get on with the current German made blades. If they all last this long they are as good value as most other blades I have.Wow ...... nine shave's a from a Wilki. That's impressive!![]()
I am going to give mine another try, I got mine in the ceramic jar as seconds as the outer box, which is huge, was damaged but did it's job protecting the ceramic jar/pot.Scottish Fine is unloved, I think it's good stuff. You used to be able to get seconds cheap on eBay. I got five pucks for about £12

But what are they?Taking over the world they are.
Or, as my friend refers to these things as; "Stupid Yuppie toys of the Month"

The El Jefe is another razor on loan from James AKA @Acer89 thank you, again.
I was warned about the issues with the head and blade alignment. It took a couple of times to get the head to line up but no major dramas, very much like the shave.
Three passes and a little buffing left me with a very, very good close shave. Not a hint of irritation, no weepers, nothing.
James did say I would be pleasantly surprised and he was right.
Cheers
Rob
