Future of Gillette Nacet blades.

Quality and general availability for this blade is fine. Regardless a prudent man would be advised to put in a supply.
If you like the Nacet and havent done so already, check out the Silver Blues and the Perma-Sharps. They represent the troika of Russian PPI blades.
 
I haven’t heard anything definitive about where Nacets may be going. The only PPI moves I’ve seen evidence of so far are…

KCG - China
Platinum - China
Astra SP - India

Anyone actually seen any others?

I bought 500 Nacets during 2 or 3 of the Italian Barber sales. I have 800 Perma-Sharp blades but just 100 of the Gillette Platinum "Light"s.

DE razor blades are used all around the world, probably more in China and India together than any other two countries in the world. I doubt they'll be going away any time soon. P&G will figure out a way to make quality blades in countries not named Russia as time goes on... and though it doesn't appear to be an end to the situation in Ukraine, history is a difficult thing to predict.

That isn't to say, P&G hasn't already been producing quality blades outside of Russia.
 
As some of you have probably seen in the recent 2 months Nacet 'Win Gold' 10 packs appeared. This is a brand new thing. Manufactured in Russia. (To all those who thought they will be discontinued or moved).

If anyone on the forum has bought Nacet "Win Gold" please post the date of manufacture on the packs. It is a very pale lettering.
