Hey I just bought the three different types from Russia to sample.
Good to hear that they all good!

I have only had a chance to try the black (India) and I must say they are great. 4 shaves, but the last was a little too dull for my skin.
Will be trying the yellow and blues soon.

I love the yellows but lately the blacks have been giving me fantastic shaves.They may become my 2nd favorite,behind feathers.
I use the Russian blue and yellow ones, and get great shaves with both blades. Cannot really say one is better than the other.

The Russian Greens are an uncoated version of the Yellows, and to me the Russian Greens are the harshest of all the Russian and Indian Gillettes. I read on some thread that the Russian Blues are supposedly the equivalent of the Indian Blacks, but I don't know if that's that's true (or if all the production variables would really be held constant in the two different factories).
I like the Blues and Yellows and the Blacks are certainly very sharp--almost too sharp for me. I have to be very careful
and conscious of my technique to use them. My favorite are the Czech Blues. I've never tried the Greens.
Greens and Blacks are top of my current production Gillettes. Nothing beats the Silver Blues though.
