Gillette platinum vs silver blue12/10/2023 ![]() I’ll describe what I see and feel, and invite you to share your thoughts along the way. I’ll use one razor on each side of my face and switch sides daily. I’ll try to keep the conditions similar for everything except the blade. When I do a third pass, it is usually against the grain. I typically face lather and do two passes, the first with the grain, the second across the grain. It may seem that this can fit in as a grail blade (and a personal fav). I will color one of caps with a blue Sharpie so I can tell them apart, but will not know which blade is in which razor. All in all, the Gillette Silver Blues are one of the best double-edge razor blades that one can buy. The razors, whose heads are clones of the DE89, have stainless steel handles with removable caps. I will use two identical Razorock Protege Razors. Thank you to Whiskerer who kindly sent me the Gillette Platinum-Plus.
