Silver Star blades. What are other shaver's opinions on these please?

[JasonJT]

Good evening to all on this forum.

As some of you would know I am really happy with the Silver Star blades at the moment (see my other post for details). I've done some more research on the said blades and they seemed to be much liked by customers on various shaving shop websites. One reviewer even described them as 'like feathers but without the harshness'

I was just curious as to what other members on this forum think of them. How has your experience been with them?

Jason.

I like them they are smooth, sharp, and have good longevity. I might add they are also very reasonable currently about 8.00 /100 quite a deal.

They are well loved around these parts. Top of the line from Lord. Sharp, smooth and have good longevity like Juijitsu2010 said. I've never shaved one out...but then I have only gone 12 shaves on any blade.

And currently only a tenner for 200 from La Barbiera.

That's MY line!

This is an all 'round phenomenal blade.

Regarding longevity, HERE's a post of mine from early 1917.

Wasn’t your username AnyCal1 back in the days before the Versailles Treaty?

It was originally 1Cal because Cal was already taken. Whoever that Cal was left, and a friendly Moderator sorted the swap for me.

Gotta luv them Mods!

That’s some top notch accommodation

Indeed.

By the way @JasonJT, do forgive us... but we need to do our homework somewhere:

Silver Star and Platinum are my favorite Lord blades

 

[JasonJT]

Thanks for your replies. I like how the Silver Star blades seem to be much liked. If I can’t find a blade better than the Silver Star then the said blade will be my blade of choice.

Brother Jason, have you tried the Gillette Silver Blue, or the Astra SS?

Thanks for your replies. I like how the Silver Star blades seem to be much liked. If I can’t find a blade better than the Silver Star then the said blade will be my blade of choice.

I'm not one to exaggerate, ask anyone on here but @shavefan , and they will confirm my inability to exaggerate, but those two are my favorite, and I doubt if I could tell the difference between those two and the Silver Star if someone loaded my razor for me.

Remember: I'm not one to exaggerate... Now @Cal and @Raven Koenes , those guys, well, watch out. Everytime they come around I put my hand over my wallet and vamoose, cuz it's gonna cost me money!

True story doggone!

Silver Star blades are very good. You won't go wrong with them.

I agree. So far its the best blade I have tried. Still have some other brands to try so I'll see how that goes.

I really like Silver Star. They are the best Lord blade I've used so far, and they are very reasonably priced.
