Although I am very happy with my daily go to blade (Gillette 7 o'clock Sharp Edge (yellow)) I still, from time to time, experiment with trying others just to further my depth of experience.
I've experienced sharp blades, smooth blades, horrible blades and just so so ones. Up until now the oft metioned Astra SP had been the smoothest feeling one I had come across but for me just didn't feel sharp enough to do the business.
Enter my latest trial blade - the Gillette Rubie
This thing is smoother than a wet snail dipped in oil going down hill in the snow! But, and here's the clincher, nicely sharp as well
Think I may have just found an ideal partner to my current favourite blade
