Indian Gillette Wlikinson

[merkur59]

Being a fan of Gillette blades, I stumbled across this Gillette Wilkinson in a local indian store carrying this.


Have since learnt my lesson after buying 25 pcs of Gillette Silver Blues and found it wanting, I just bought a box of 5 for SGD0.50.
[its next door indian store happens to carry 3 scents of Old Spice creams . My get them in the near future - I have yet to open the lone tube (lime) that I bought many months back]

Have yet to try the blace - maybe tonight.

Reasonably decent blade. Smooth, forgiving, though not the sharpest out there.

I just shaved with it and find it rather smooth.
Similar to the gillette 7'oclock green. A tad less smooth than the yellow (in weber, and for my light beard)

For SGD0.50 for a pack of 5, I'm going to grab 50 of these tomorrow.

I find that these blades are consistently smooth. Good blades for not a lot of money.

Be careful when buying those blades because sometimes you can get ones that are made in China in almost the exact same packaging. I thought the seller I bought mine from was lying about them being made in India when I got mine.
