I like GSB. Also Astra SP and SS. Still at the point of trying to discern the differences. I have a variety of blades I’m going through but the GSB has felt great in my razors so far.
First time GSB!

GSBs are great blades. I think they are the most comfortable blades I have. Polsilver SIs may be sharper but I find the GSBs more comfortable.

They are among my faves. Shaves #3-7 are outstanding. I often get 10 comfortable shaves out of one of these blades, and I'm not one looking to make a blade last forever. I bought 300 about 4 or 5 years ago and I think I've still got plenty of them left.
Is the consensus that the new single-wrapped, squared-off pip in the I in Gillette Silver Blues the same as the old double-wrapped, round pip GSBs?
I'm getting awful shaves and awful longevity from the latest batch of GSBs I purchased. Could be me.

Mine are single wrapped also, and on the side of the tucks has a number ending with 03/12/18, which I assume is the manufactured date. Anyway, I find these to be excellent blades.
Good to know. It's probably me since I'm using up an old Proraso tube not soap right now.
I have both the old double wrapped old graphics packaging and the new single wrapped new graphics packaging and they’re the same blades
GSB’s are one of my top blades. I just ordered 100 for $14.99.
