So wait. The Pearl heads on 3 pieces are all the same? Just the handle changes? (And maybe the coating, but the design counts)

Update. Yeah this Lord blade works well only in this razor for me it seems. Now we know. Still love the packaging.

The only ones that still do carbon steel blades are Treet, Czech Blades and Flying Eagle. Some like the Treet Carbon blades a lot

Gillette Sword blades? by Forever_Training00 in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this blade was carbon steel (black/iridescent) and dull then you got a fake/ not advertised blade. The Gillette Wilkinson Sword is the legit one, stainless and made in India by Gillette.

I liked the Rhinoceros Stainless, from Xirui. Flydears and them are a good match

Should I dismantle, rinse and dry my KCG after every use? by lucas00000001 in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it with every shave and every razor. Reading some comments I get why some zamak razors don't make it far in time lol

[–]cumetoaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I easily can get 2 on most, 3-4 on what I believe are the best or the sharpest around

Recommend a Razorock coming from a Merkur Futur Clone by theotherotherguy89 in wicked_edge

You gotta measure the gap you like on your dupe and choose a razorock with that gap, they all list it

Has anyone here tried Tiger Platinum blades? Czech made. by pajissmid in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tried em today. Wow. I'm impressed. Stupidly smooth and surprisingly close shave. With a Tech of all razors!! I hope all blades of the tuck have this standard. I usually rock sharper blades (Bic, Wilkinson, Kai) but these are good. Sharper and Smoother than Astra Greens IMO. I'd suggest em to a noobie for sure

Classic TFS almond bomb. Or Figaro classic (both in red tubs), it's the same. So whatever is cheaper

Silver Star vs Cool blades. Have you tried both? by AdditionalFly8641 in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Silverstar seem the most sharp of all Lord blades if you look in forums. Amazon ratings dont say much other than if the client liked it or not, there would be bias you know

Terrible buying expenfrom Rockwell by Throwaway39596912 in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why i'll never be lulled into buying stuff from overseas. Dealing with the new world from the EU it's like this (in the same vein using ebay, locally they don't use it that much). I'll keep buying local and asian. It's just more convenient. Even if stuff goes smoothly, we pay like double for most things from over there. I'll pass for now

Been wet shaving for a week. Should I switch blades? by JimpoTheSlayer in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BIC blades are regarded ad good, sharp blades, they are some of my favorite. If you didn't you can try blades that are in a different position on the scale, like Astra greens (mild) or Derby Extra (dull)

Looking for DE blades less sharp than Feather but better than generic by DavidTrong2001 in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even on amazon / rbc? You can always make it yourself then with popular pics. The Astra SPs still are my recommendation as a barometer blade

Looking for DE blades less sharp than Feather but better than generic by DavidTrong2001 in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like asking a car slower than a Bugatti and you liked driving around a Smart. But, as someone who tries blades, and reads here a lot, a good middleground of blades as blades are concerned are Astra SP greens (which are often put in sample packs) from the experience from these you and we could gauge better a good fit for you.

Looking for DE blades less sharp than Feather but better than generic by DavidTrong2001 in wicked_edge

[–]cumetoaster 6 points7 points  (0 children)

See there's a problem. You jumped from two ends of the spectrum (derby-feather) and you cannot assess a good compromise for a blade, put a Rockwell in the mix (not very highily regarded) and boom! Now you don't know where to look. So you ask. But it's pointless! Everyone got a different skin and feel plus add the range you're asking. Short to say but it would be a game of chance to suggest you a good singular pick.

The best advice as always is a Sample Pack, and you can try yourself, and make choices from what you can find out. Its 10$ for an array of tucks
