Polisilver, Personna anyone try these versions

[Blondie]

Can I get some thoughts on these blades? Thinking of adding to the thousands, (just in case) I already have...

I like the Polsilvers quite a bit. I am not positive, but think they may be out of production now. The other blades I have not tried but read mixed reviews on the Bolzano blades.

Oh, certainly. I laid in a purchase of a thousand Souplex blades a couple years back. It's a great blade, and probably my current-production favorite. The Bolzanos are also excellent, though I only have a couple hundred on-hand. I just picked up 100 of the brown-box Polsilvers, myself, based on some of the comments, here, but I have yet to try them. I've never tried the Personnas you have pictured.
Seems to me that you can't really go too far wrong with any of these.

You only have a couple 100 on hand? And I thought I was worried when I had 10-20 blades of my favorite brand.

Everyone doesn't have 1000's of blades??

The Personnas are the Red Personna "Israeli" DE blades. That is the UK packaging, as opposed that Red Personna Israelie DE blades in the packaging from Mexico. Although the blades are the same, the UK packaging is now blueish greenish (kind of an odd color choice for a blade that is knows as the "Red" Personna), while the Mexican packaging remains red.

Yeah, it's a bit odd, I'll agree. I keep all my blades in a 20-gallon rubbermaid tote, and it's so full that the lid isn't snapping very tight. That said, there's an abundance of fabulous steel in there -- maybe 30-35 pounds -- and some relatively rare and well-loved brands, too. I just threw 100 wilkinson bonded carts in there, actually. Ultimately, I'm going to have to clear out the cruft, but when I do, it'll all go up in the B/S/T.

30-35 LBS. of blades on the BST....

I think you make a right choice on the Souplex and the Personna Reds. I don't have them by the thousands, but I have enough to last me a long time.

Red = Made in Israel, these are Swedish...
