Well this no good at all, I sounds to me that Gillette/Proctor and Gandle just swapped out the blade that we all called "Swedes" with the 7:00 Sharps.
Regardless of where the old blades were made, they were superb blades. To me they were the very best blade on the market. I didn't use them all the time, but when I wanted a truly first class shave, there was no other blade that came close.
I am not disparaging the 7:00's, they are ok blades, but they are not even close to the quality of the "Swedes". To me, the 7:00 is more like a Feather than a "Swede".
A truly fine line of blades has been kicked to the curb so that Gillette can make more of their crappy cartridges!
They are gone and won't be back. Those of us that appreciated and enjoyed the superb shave that these blades would give are just S.O.L.
I know that it won't do anygood, but I feel compelled to write to Gillette and politely but clearly express my displeasure with this sorry-*** event.
Does anyone have a adress and title for whatever miscreant is responsible?
I, for one, will break out the pen and paper an express my opinion.
