Gillette continues making some of the finest Double-Edge blades in their Russian factory.
The Gillette "Silver Blue" is one of the finest blades available and far superior to the 5-blade "cartridges". I highly recommend as well as their "Perma-Sharp". At about 20 cents a blade, a superior blade and a far superior shave!
trying to find old fashioned single blades seems to have gone the way of the buggy whip. Used to get them ar Walmart every time, but they then went missing. Asked the pharmacist where they went to and he advised that the store no longer handles them since they are used to cut drugs. Sheesh!
