At this rate I can see a new brotherhood starting...
That, of course, would be the SSS (Silver Star Shavers).

For me GSB's work better in the Piccolo than Astra SP's.
We just don't want to encourage their use in other razors.@Uncas

Now we're talking PLC "sub-brotherhood." I definitely like that too.
Check out the ShaveWiki Abbreviations, and my signature.
PSSST it is. 
Nice one rasoio!

Today I had my first shave with a Silver Star in the Piccolo: I was right in trusting you all about these blades...
It was a nice shave, efficient but not harsh: I could feel the blade a bit more than my beloved GSB, but that was somehow expected because of the different coating - or lack thereof.
All in all, I'm glad I've got so many of them, especially at that price (11 USD and change)
Thanks for advertising them [emoji14]

I'm in. 
I definitely prefer PSSST to PSSS. PSSS sounds like something you do after too much beer.

Fatip Piccolo/ Silver Star (10) 
This was my 10th and final shave on my first Silver Star blade. About mid-week I got some tugging in a trouble area. I modified my technique with a Gillette Slide and that cured the issue. Today was the best shave this week. I skipped the Gillette Slide and went back to what I call my shaving by Mongo Technique. I wonder what the mid-week thing was about? I used my normal no-prep shave routine and my usual steep angle, so I didn't change anything up. There was no tugging today at all. It was smooth like butter. I liked Silver Star right off. I must admit that week two on the blade overall seemed superior to week one.
