Treet Blades

[rosborne]

I participated in the Vintage Williams Puck Pass and pulled a couple of blades from it which I had not tried.

One that I just put in over the weekend was a black coated blade, called Treet. It says "A treet for your face" on it as well and I have to say that is exactly what it is. I believe this may be the best blade I've ever used.

Has anyone else experienced these and are they still available anywhere or did I have a taste of "what once was" in a better time?

OK, I was so impressed with this blade and couldn't wait to inquire about it here, I did a simple google search and found they are easily available.

Does anyone else have thoughts on these blades. I have to say I recommend them to anyone to try. I'm very impresses with this one lonely blade I have and I will be getting more.

Treet has a bunch of different blades. What kind of Treet was it?

It was the Treet "Black Beauties" which somehow on the reviews appears to be called the Treet "Blue Special" I'm reading up on them now.

I found the Treet Platinums to be really good shavers. When I purchased a them a while back, they were quite inexpensive. Now, when I see them on eBay, they've inched up in price and are now around $18.00 plus shipping.

I've been putting together a little order at http://www.shoeboxshaveshop.com/blades.html. I haven't ordered from them before but have heard good things and they carry a good selection of blades, including Treet.

I have used the Black Beauties many times. The carbon steel will rust quickly but for me they always gave a great shave in my adjustable razors.

The Treet carbon blades are my favorite daily blade.

Are you talking about Treet SE blades made by ASR (my current favorite) or Treet DE blades?

I love the Treet Blue Special, even moreso than their more technologically advanced cousin, the Dura Sharp Classic. The black blade is sexy too, no? I've got a post about it somewhere. I've been giving them out to newbs, and may regret it if I ever veer away from the path of the straight razor one day.
