I found a pack of old stainless steel Personna blades a couple months back at a flea market. Used one for the first time today and man what a shave! This is a smooth and sharp blade. The first couple WTG strokes I had to stop and check my angle with my Gillette NEW because it didn't feel like I was cutting anything. Sure enough it was deftly slicing through the stubble. Most blades give me a good bit of chatter when I try to go ATG in the NEW due to the blade exposure, but with this blade I was buffing my upper lip and chin like I was shaving with a Feather AS-D1 razor.
I have got to find more of these! Definitely one of the smoothest shave's I've had yet. Can anyone help narrow down what model of Personna they are so I can try to search out more NOS? The blade indicates it was made in Great Britain. 5 blades packaged in a blue case with a clear cover. Each blade is wrapped in the outer white labeled paper you see below and then an inner thin paper with After Shave After printed all over it.
