Who says that? Haha. It always amazes me the people that can get more than 2 good shaves out of a feather.Ppl who use feathers be like “it shaves best on the 3rd or 4th shave”.

Pretty much agree. I've been wet shaving for years and my shaving experience could be described as the search for the perfect blade. I think your list is spot on.I've tried 62 different DE blades during my journey into Wet Shaving, both vintage and modern; these are my Top 12.
The number after each blade is how they scored keeping in mind several factors (sharpness, smoothness, durability, post-shave feel).
1) Personna 74 Tungsten * - 9,16
2) Gillette Super Silver (1968-73) * - 8,37 (European 'Spoilers' made in England)
3) Gillette Platinum (Swedes) * - 8,33
4) Polsilver/Wizamet Super Iridium - 8,24
5) Gillette Platinum Plus (Mexico) * - 8,21
6) Gillette King C Gillette - 8,19
7) Gillette Platinum (Light Blue) - 8,18
8) 7 O'clock Super Platinum - 8,18
9) Gillette Bleue Extra T3 (1998) * - 8,17
10) Gillette Wilkinson Platinum - 8,17
11) Wilkinson Sword Classic - 8,15
12) Kai - 8,12
* = vintage
Of course every face is different and YMMV. What i like you may hate it and viceversa.
The only problem is that they rust in a day.Just had one of the best shaves of my life with Treet Durasharp Will have to try again to confirm.
The Pakistanis know how to make a razor blade! This thing was sooo smooth!! Wow. Just wow
It's already the best $8 I've spent thus far in my wet shaving career (read hobby)!
