I have some vintage schick blades, they look like 1960's or 70's era.. are these blades any good to shave with?
FireDragon76,
For me, the vintage stainless Schick blades shave very much better than the modern Personna injector blades.
For me, they are sharper and smoother, and last many more shaves.
I have now finished my last pack of vintage Schick blades
Have fun !
Best regards
Russ
I tried a third blade from the vintage Schicks. This time I corked the blade on a piece of styrefoam packing. It shaves fine, very smooth, very little irritation.
Where can I order some Chick blades, I'd like to try them.
If they have been in a bathroom or any environment with occasional higher humidity for most of those years they may have a layer of oxidation on the blade edge, even so-called stainless blades. It isn't necessary to see rust for there to be some metal damage.
