    Default Treet Platinum Super Stainless; not such a treat for me!

    Owww,

    the Treet PSS is the first blade I have tried that gave me a *worse* shave the second time 'round...it was tugging and scraping like a three day old Derby half way through the second day :P The first shave wasn't so bad, so I figured the second might just be pretty decent, but no luck. The carbon steel Treets are one of my top five blades, but it looks like the stainless ones will not be joining them in the regular use lineup!
    50/50 BOTOC shaver..........Can Grappa be used as aftershave?

    I agree, their Carbon blades are much better. The quality control on the Platinums has gotten really shoddy of late.

    I'm a little afraid to ask although my package with a pack of Treets has been sitting in customs for weeks, but which kind is this one?

    It doesn't specify the type, it is white and blue? I can't tell which one this would be...

    Those are Silver Edge Super Stainless blades which are different blades to those which the OP is talking about. I bought a pack of those on my last order from Bestshave too, but haven't got around to trying them yet so I can't offer an opinion on how they perform. But here's the review page for them.

    Those are the Durasharps, Carbon Steel blades. I haven't encountered them in this packaging )probably export only), only the yellow one. Some don't like them, a lot of members do though including yours truly. Fine blades.
