Razor Blades

I have a job to find the Wilkinson Blue Diamond razor blades. Is there any stall on the market that has them?
It may be that I will have to change to another type of wet razor. What's best - a good shave and long-lasting being musts. I use a gel rather than foam

Re: Razor Blades

I use a Gillette power thing, no gel, foam or soap, just water and a razor in the shower, excellent shave every day, lasts well, (Weeks per blade easily)

Re: Razor Blades

It maybe some help Bob, Ive been using Gillette Mach Three same razor sinch 1994 almost 20 years blades now cost £13.55 for 8 but I can bet each blade will last about 3/4 weeks. I am ready for new blades this next week but I thought I would look at the new Gillette Powerglide.

Re: Razor Blades

I have previously bought these off the web, but had to pay postage per pack, so as I ordered two packs, it was quite expensive. The postage cosdt fgar exceeded what the posting should have cost.I am on my last two blades. I feel sure that some must be available to buy in a shop or stall, but I havenet yet found them. Gillette products have almost a monopoly. I am hopeful that someone will spot them - Wilkinson Blue Diamond blades - somewhere and tell me. Accyweb has that power

The 'blue diamond' sort aren't listed on the Wilkinson website.

In that case, no wonder I cannot find them - discontinued. The others from the internet site are the old fashioned type that my dad used to sharpen by rubbing inside as jam jar. I'm gonna have to have a change.I have tried Bott's brand and Lidll's but didn't like them.
