So I have seen the injectors of the P74* blades coming up for sale. My question is are these P74 injector blades as good as the DE version we all are familiar with?

They seem to be a tad more accessible than the standard DE blades.
They are fantastic blades, worth the cost. I put one in a Schick L type and my wife and I both used it for two weeks with no problem. I guess 20 shave from a single blade.
I have been fortunate enough to use both the injector blades and the DE variety. I think the injector blades are every bit as good. Amazingly sharp and smooth. Around 20 shaves is what I found as well, and probably could be pushed another 5 at that.
I just finished shave number 15 with my first P74 injector blade. It took literally ten shaves for the blade to break in. What was too sharp is now incredibly smooth and still very sharp.

I know my SPC (close cousin of the P74) lasted 30+ shaves, shaving every other day. While it doesn't come with the excitement of cueing up a new razor blade every 4-6 shaves, you know that once broken in, it is consistent and surprises you with anything
so the answer is YES they are as good as the DE version. 
Rubbish!!!
where was it you saw these for sale? I will make sure that nobody else gets burned by these blades!

And reveal my honey-hole? But I will give you a hint, the ad says "One per customer"
Just as I suspected! Must be one of us! Or the like! I found them!
Since getting PIF'd some SE 74's I have gone off all the others. Loving the OS by the way.

Added one thing to my x-mas wish list. Enjoy that authentic OS, it travelled many miles to meet you!
