Looking at the Gillette Super Speed razors on eBay and would like to know the difference between the flare, blue, black and red tipped razors?

I dont think the red tip is in therem but i shaved with one today, and it is supposed to be agressive. I happen to like the Supper speed the best... So far anyways......

Thanks for the info. What blades to you find most successful in the super speed?

Thanks nrek619, Chimay Cinq Cents aka Chimay White is one my favorites. I always go back and forth between the Orval and Chimay. Can't go wrong with either.

Thanks Guido, great site.

If you ask 10 people which blades they prefer, you will get 10 different answers. For me, I have gone through the four blades in the West Coast Shaving economy sample pack and found the Derby blades to work the best for me in my 40's Superspeed.
