Razor Blades
I have a job to find the Wilkinson Blue Diamond razor blades. Is there any stall on the market that has them?
It may be that I will have to change to another type of wet razor. What's best - a good shave and long-lasting being musts. I use a gel rather than foam |

Re: Razor Blades
I use a Gillette power thing, no gel, foam or soap, just water and a razor in the shower, excellent shave every day, lasts well, (Weeks per blade easily)

Thanks Susie, but these aren't the type I seek. Bob

Re: Razor Blades
It maybe some help Bob, Ive been using Gillette Mach Three same razor sinch 1994 almost 20 years blades now cost £13.55 for 8 but I can bet each blade will last about 3/4 weeks. I am ready for new blades this next week but I thought I would look at the new Gillette Powerglide.

Re: Razor Blades
I have previously bought these off the web, but had to pay postage per pack, so as I ordered two packs, it was quite expensive. The postage cosdt fgar exceeded what the posting should have cost.I am on my last two blades. I feel sure that some must be available to buy in a shop or stall, but I havenet yet found them. Gillette products have almost a monopoly. I am hopeful that someone will spot them - Wilkinson Blue Diamond blades - somewhere and tell me. Accyweb has that power

Which will cost quids, with 5 spare blades costing a fortune, and then when you go for some new blades (which don't last long) they have changed the design, or no longer stock them. |

Strangely they get mixed reviews on Amazon but replacement blades get better reviews. I found a pack of old Bics I must have had for years, thought ideal for holidays,use and throw away so tried one. It was like shaving with a broken bottle. Must have had tough skin, soft beard in those days. |
Re: Razor Blades
Both Retlaw and Gordon Booth are thick skinned. I'm more delicate - as a lad I used Camay and Imperial Leather - no carbolic for me. I wasn't all that keen on the blocks of soap issued at the baths in St James St.
I share Gordon's opinion on Bics. |

From the days of the famous 'snog on the stairs' circa 1957, I recall that he has bristles like a porcupine.
I had over done time under a sun lamp and was red skinned before he kissed me, and red raw by the time he stopped. |
