Most desired discontinued DE blades?

[Danuhoh]

Hi,

Just curious what the most desired/sought after discontinued DE blades(s) are? Purely from a quality shave point of view..........

Thanks.

They are all terrible.

Just kidding. Gillette spoilers are good, as are Schick plus platinum. However, there is a reason people don't talk too much about them, as they are no longer produced, and talking them up on the forum does nothing but cause prices to skyrocket. It's hard to justify the prices other than for the experience of having tried them. Plus, if you get too attached to one brand, it is inevitable that you will have to find something else.

I agree, they are all terrible.

Personna 74's. The ultimate blade? Ok, ok, I am only a couple of months into all this wetshaving nonsense so I really don't know squat but I have read alot of good things about these blades. I just wanted to post something, ok?

Gillette Swedes. When I DE shaved, these were definitely the best I tried.

I would imagine the Personna 74 tungsten blades would be the most desired based on some of the prices I've seen.

Ditto.

I have a couple of these left and save them for special occasions.

For me the Schick Plus Platinum, made in Amsterdam version. The only NOS blade I am looking out for.

The ones that give you the best shave.....I know as soon as I like a product it ends up going "obsolete" and the company makes a newer "better" model...especially running shoes, man that makes me mad.

All the ones mentioned here seem to fit the bill, from a quality standpoint. I, for one, am curious about Apollo blades. Though they are discontinued, they can still be bought at retail, which makes them interesting.
