I got some Shark blades with my Parker 99R safety razor. I must say, I really liked them (although my only previous experience being the Wilkinson Sword blades from Walmart.) I get these tucks of 5 at my barber shop for $1. But the last two times, the razors came in a slightly different packaging.
The tuck and label looks exactly the same, but the wrapper on the blade is thicker and non-transparent (the old wrappers were thinner and more waxy & translucent.) Also, it felt as if the blades were thicker or harder (could just be in my mind).
Anyway, it seems like these blades nick me up more and tug more than the other Sharks I've used, but they're supposedly the same product. Anyone have any information on this or know why that could be?
