About 7 o clock green

[Marc59]

I noticed there are two kinds of green Gillette: permasharp, from India, and super stainless, from Russia.

Which are the best in your opinion?

 

[Wil Dorenbos]

For me the Indian, but as always YMMV

I like both G7 offerings from India - black and green.

ive had good shaves with the green SS but todays shave left me mopping up a mess similar to a scene from an 80s horror movie... ok not that bad but I know my technique has gotten better not worse ???? no sure what to think

It seems that both Greens are manufactured to the same standard. The Indian version apparently has a coating the Russian doesn't have.

Both are pretty much admired by the communities. And each has its proponents to the point of sneering at the other. I know, you are shocked.

I'm one who uses both kinds and happy to do so.

I find that the Indian Permasharps are smoother and longer lasting. I can get nearly twice the number of shaves from the Permasharp than I can from the Super Stainless.

I prefer the Russian ones (YMMV).

 

[Sledgehammer39]

I like the Russian and Indian Greens equally.

well i have now shaved twice with the green russian 7 0'clocks..the first shave was a little rough (also cause i shaved the night before..i usually shave every second day)...and i think this is the usual case when trying a new blade.
On the second time around i was quite impressed, only one small knick on adams apple..nothing major and got a nice smooth shave..i have sensitive skin and not that thick.
