Are supermax blades underrated???

[Bobby1979]

All supermax blades i tried are from pretty good to excellent,and last as long or longer than most popular blades here on forum.They also perform way better . All comments welcome!

I recently bought a puck to try. I have found them to be very good when used in my razor rock mamba. I have not tried them in any other razor yet. But I feel that they will do as well. So far I have gotten 5 three pass shave with no nicks or cuts. They may not be as sharp as the feather blades that I normally use, but nice to know that I have found another blade to get a close shave. Also, they are far less expensive too. I hope this helps?

Tried a bunch of them in the past, they do the job but I still prefer feathers easily.

I find feather little too sharp,but use it sometimes,am getting better shaves with medium sharpness blades(i shave every day),tried it with feather,and was little rough,but still not bad.

Supermax super platinum ,super stainless and voskod just give me super close shaves.

The Supermax super platinum was my go to blade for a long time. Always worked well for me.

SuperMax Blue Diamond Platinum are right up there with my top blades. Sharp, not quite as sharp as a Feather, but more durable. I like my Feathers, but SuperMax are my most cost-effective blades. Based on a trial tuck of Polsilver, SuperMax wins on both performance and price.

I have Supermax Super Stainless. Decent blades. I bought at first a puck of 10 to see how they are, then I bought a box of 200 at €9,99

I love the Super Max Blue Diamond Titaniums. They are in my top echelon of blades. Their Platinum cousins are good also but are just a notch under.

Yes sir. Glad you liked them.

Yes sir. Glad you liked them.

I'd buy some, that says it all. You were very kind to do so. I doubt I could tell it from a GSB if someone else loaded the razor!

Have a hundred titaniums, they're very good!

It's seems Super Platinum blades are long discontinued,there are others are still being made.

Here's a blast from the past ... I sure liked them five years ago!

Super-Max Titanium; wow!

Finally got around to trying a tuck of these from a blade sampler. Threw it into a Tri-Slot Tech. Figured it would be similar to an Astra, Personna, etc. WRONG! Hadn't shaved two centimeters before I realized these were akin to Feathers, IMHO. Sharp, sharp, sharp. Close, close, close. Part of...

I loved the super platinums. Are they being sold under a different name/packaging or did they go away?

My take is that SuperMax really likes to change up its naming/packaging. So all platinum SuperMax may be created equal.

 

[Bobby1979]

Yes,they have many different packages for blades,with same name for example super stainless have maybe 4,5 different variants,and theyre different ,some are so so and some very good.

I had no idea. Weird.
