my brain goes "thonk"
I shaved with this blade today and got one of the smoothest shaves I've had in awhile. I used some dried up Tabac shaving cream which worked like Tabac works. Very smooth face feel. Very clean shave.

This has become a new topicMy ‘understanding’ (which is difficult with Personna products and marketing) is that ‘Israeli reds’ (now made in Germany) were a different blade made in the same plant.
I thought it was a Crystal blade I just wasn't sure. Thanks.Is this the predecessor of the Personna Platinums/Israeli Reds?
