I was out of the DE scene for 5 years and now I’m back.
I’m sort of an old rookie, right…..

So far my Top 5 DE blades goes like this:

1. Gillette Perma Sharp

2. Gillette Platinum

3. Personna Platinum (Israeli Red)

4. Personna Platinum (German Blue)

5. KAI

Honourable mention:
Feather & Voskhod

I used to own 400 Polsilver, but sold them in 2016. They would still be number 1 now.

I use smooth blades in efficient razors and sharp blades in mild razors.

Let me hear your list !

BIC Chrome Platinum
Nacet
Gillette 7 O'Clock Super Platinum Blacks
Wilkinson Sword (German)
Dorco Prime Platinum STP301
SuperMax Blue Diamond
Astra Superior Stainless
King C Gillette Platinum
Durablade Sharp Platinum

Hey Claus!  What’s happening?

Top DE Blades:

1.  Vintage Wilkinson “New” blades, Wilkinson London Bridge, and Wilkinson Light Brigade…they all seem to be the same blade to me!

2.  Vintage Iridium Super BN-76

3.  Vintage Personna 74s

4.  Vintage Schick Plus Platinum

5.  Modern Gillette Platinum (the modern “Swedes”)

I could be happy using any one of these blades the rest of my DE shaving days…though I use the straight razor more often now.

Have a great weekend!

Nacet.

I am fine with almost any blade, but Nacet seems to be my sweet spot.

Not a top 5 list, but a top 1. Use the Gillette Nacet blades and don't look back.
