...what are they like? Does anyone have any experience of them? I have just scored a 10 pack of them on Ebay for 0.09p.
I'm guessing from the packaging pictured in the review section that these are not the same blades as the Vidyut Super Max Stainless blades, right? I got some of those in a sample pack, and made it half way through 1 stroke (not halfway through 1 shave or even halfway through 1 pass) before I took the blade out and chucked it. Felt like trying to shave with a dull, rusty, serrated butter knife. It was awesome!Haven't had the heart to try another one yet.
There are three versions of Supermax blade in order of sharpness and price
1) Supermax Stainless - Dull barely good for a shave or two - on the rough side. Not a personal favorite
2) Supermax Super Stainless - Sharp and smooth blade for 2-3 shaves. A notch below the Indian 7 O'Clock Permasharp Green
3) Supermax Platinum - Smooth coated blade. Does a fine job and lasts 2-3 shaves
Where does the Supermax Blue Diamond fit in your list? I find the Stainless are good on the first shave, great on the seond, but can't finish a third
Thanks for the replies. I will see what they are like. But if they are pants at .69p including delivery I can afford to toss them.
Its great to read about how people find different blades, i tried these and did not like them at all, but as always there are loads who do
I just shaved with the SuperMax Super Stainless and found them to quite good. To me, they shave better than many blades I've used. Surprisingly, I would rate them slightly better than Super+ Platinums (a.k.a. IP), a little sharper but just as smooth. That's really good considering they can be bought for almost 1/2 the price.
