NOS Personna 74 score!

[jgriest03]

I scored these for $1.50 today at a local antique mall! I couldn't believe they were there, its a booth I've checked many times with no luck. I can't wait to try them out, I've heard so many nice comments.

Very nice find! It's one of the few blades I've yet to try. Enjoy!

LOad into a mild razor, prep well, and use them for 20 or so shaves. You'll be quite pleased.

Great deal! Let us know how you like them!

Congrats! You'll love 'em! There's nothing like a P74.

 

[jgriest03]

Thanks, I can't wait to try one out tomorrow. I will let you guys know how it works out.

not bad

They are nice and smooth and I once used one for close to two months, shaving every day. I'd say I got a month's worth on average.

Would these be good candidates to use with a Feather AS-D1? Might have to hunt down a pack or two to test out.

Looks like they overcharged you by about 61 cents! I'd demand a refund.

Awesome haul, congrats!

Oh man, I shaved with the first one this morning. A very nice blade, effortlessly cut without a hint of irritation. Smooth as can be in my Tech, I'm going to put the blade through my rotation of razors.

I saw that, but given inflation I thought it was a pretty good deal! Ha ha

The good thing is that you'll be saying this for your next umpteen shaves, cuz these blades just don't wear out.

Nice score! Stick with your milder handles for the first week or so; these guys start out wickedly sharp, and it takes 7-8 shaves to degrade them down to "extremely sharp."

Thanks for the info. Amazing blades, 12 hours later, still nice and smooth with no hint of irritation.

Nice score! And the price was right too. Congrats.

A few years ago I came into possession of about 20 of those. They were very smooth and lasted a long time. I think I averaged about a dozen quality 3-pass shaves per blade. Nice score!

 

[rxonmymind]

Sweet! I've scored the some pretty good razors but that would be nice to run into some blades like these. Congrats!

 

[jgriest03]

Shave #2 down with my Aristocrat Jr., again as smooth as can be and no irritation to speak of. My alum block felt like I was rubbing it over skin that had never been touched by a razor. Amazing blade so far, I need to quit talking these up so when I post by WTB there will actually be some available.
