Superman super stainless blades killed me today

[james23p]

Had one of the green supermax super stainless blades and after 2 passes 3 nicks and the most uncomfortable DE shave I've had since I started I gave up and sent the super to the blade bank and finished with a fresh Wilkinson to my face's relief!

Not sure who makes them and the sleeve said world renowned but for what I don't know. I know everyone is different and some probably like these but I can say they will not be in my rotation, I got a better shave from a 1969 carbon steel Gillette Thin blade. Ok sorry sailors rant over now back to your regularly scheduled program.

I think your reaction was perfect. Maybe try another new one sometime to see if you have the same result.

I have no problem swapping out blades mid shave. If I think it will give me a bad shave POOF! he gone!

I've swapped blades after 1 stroke before.

Stick the rest in the drawer and pull them out again in about 6 months. You may find they are the best blade you have ever used

Supermax is made in India and all that I have used are excellent. They are on the sharp side
