What is your favorite lesser-known blade?

[cranewarrior]

I like Treets and the Treet Platinum is my favorite. It is sharp enough for me, smooth, inexpensive, easy to find. Also it's double-wrapped and is wax-free.

Please share your favorite off-the-beaten-path razor blade.

Rainbow Stainless. Another great Lord blade.

Silver Star (another Lord blade)

That's on my list to try! I managed to get a 100 pack for $4.19 on clearance and since I think the regular ST300 is very good, I have high hopes for the highest tier Dorco blade.

The Dorco Titan is cheap and easy to get hold off (in the UK at least) but it's a good solid performer.

It's sold on AMZ here in the USA so it's easy to find here as well. The weird thing is the ST300/ST301 are supposed to be a tier higher than the Titan in the Dorco catalog, but the Titan costs more on AMZ.

I know the Dorco Prime has some coatings the other two lines do not, but I am curious what the difference is between the Titan and the ST300.

Silver star is a very good blade. Sure it is not as sharp as a nacet, but it does not tug and is quite efficient (at least in the razor I tried this blade with). It presents a nice equilibrium between smoothness.

Would Tiger Platinums be considered as ”lesser known”? To my face, they are the smoothest out there.

Pretty much any Dorco (produced in Vietnam), Treet Durasharp yellow, and Suneko

I am a dedicated "recommended by many on B&B" shopper, so I purchase nothing that's lesser-known. As you can no doubt surmise, I'm no gambler.

Big Ben (Blue Tuck). I think these are a Lord manufacture. Wasn't expecting much, but after one tuck I bought 100 earlier this year.

 

[DEgeezer]

Gillette Goal. I'm not sure where they are made.

 

[Pinto90]

Zaza super stainless or Zaza platinum produced in Türkiye.

 

[Pinto90]

Rainbow Stainless. Another great Lord blade.

Excellent blade, I think perhaps it is now out of production.
