I don't think my WS blades are made in the UK any more. I believe they are made in Germany now? I haven't tried one in ages and I was pleasantly surprised at the performance I got from one today...not as good as a Feather, but a perfectly acceptable result all the same. I remember from back in the day, it must have been the mid 60s by my recollection; it was during a time when DE razor blades were very difficult to come by for some reason, and my dad's excitement when he was able to get hold of Wilkinson Sword blades. He would treasure them and make them last as long as he could. :001_smile

Have a good day and a pleasant evening, gentlemen! :001_cool:
