I bought a 100 pack of these last year based on your review since I agree with a lot of what you say and they were great. The 7 o'clock blades were the first blades that actually felt sharp and smooth while cutting my hair effortlessly. The sound of the hair being sliced is the cherry on top.

@joshuahodges6267 8 лет назад
I have been wet shaving for about 8 months now. When I started I got a 50 blade variety pack. These blades were in it and are by far my favorite blade so far. The smoothness and sharpness makes this a great blade. The variety pack included Feather, Treet, Lord to name a few.

*Nice to see that adding an upward angle worked out for you Nick.* *I also learned that for the chin area, raising the skin up (via tucking your lips in) seems to make the hairs stick out further, and thus makes them easier to cut off with fewer passes.*

I'v been using these blades for a long time. Everything you've said about these blades is done on. I've tried all of the 7 O'clock blades and these are by far my favorite. Smooth, cuts wells, and last me four shaves. I have a sample of Cat O nine aftershave, but been a little wimpy in trying it. I just need to man up.

I'm new to wet shaving with a DE razor and I kept getting cuts and nicks all over the place. Shaving is a bloody experience for me, until I tried these Gillette 7 o'clock green super stainless today. They were so smooth and I didn't get a single nick or cut. The end result after 3 passes was very impressive too. My closest shave to date. Just amazing.

This is the first ever shaving video I watched. Thanks Nick. Huge fan. Learned a lot from watching your videos. And spent a lot too! Haha. I love my Merkur 34C. I also have an Edwin Jagger DE89 and Parker Variant Adjustable that I like a lot too. As for blades, Personna Lab Blue, Astra SP, Gillette Wilkinson Sword and Gillette 7 O'clock Super Stainless work best for me.

Great review Nick. I think I have a sample pack of these and I've decided to give them a try. I also purchased a Chubby 2 based on your review and it's one of my favorite brushes. I recently bought a Razorock 2 band finest badger brush (24mm x 57mm) and I would recommend that to anyone that face lathers. It's only $24.99 so it's a real bargain.

@KHLthe2nd 8 лет назад
Using one of these now and when compared to the Astra Super Platinum, they are smoother and just as sharp. I'm using the same Merkur and Stirling soaps, too. I still have the Dorco ST301, Dorco Prime Platinum, Personna Med Prep, Personna Lab Blue, Personna Platinum (Israeli Red), Wilkinson Sword and Feather to go.

Somehow I guess I never tried these before (think a long time ago I tried the green permasharp ones which weren't great). Loaded one up today in a Mercury 34C and it was a stellar combo. Sharp but smoother than my Feathers or Petsonna meds. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend these blades for sure.

Hi Nick, thanks for your work and reviews, awesome. I'm glad you like these blades. These are my go to blades, they just hit that sweet spot for me, when I started out I tried many different blades but it all came together when I discovered them and especially with the merkur 34c. my daily weapons of choice. I'm really pleased you like them, I bought them in bulk and have never looked back. Keep it up. Owen in New Zealand

@jeremybarbaresi6892
@jeremybarbaresi6892 8 лет назад
Next time you shave off camera, do your second pass going ear to nose direction on both sides of your face but add that upward angle so it's an XTG/ATG hybrid direction. You can probably get your shave as close as you're used to in 2 passes instead of 3. A couple months ago I started going from the corner of my jaw (below my ear) up towards my nose on each side during the 2nd pass, and go completely south to north in my mustache area so the razor can get all the hair just below the base of my nose. I haven't found a need for a full 3rd pass since doing it this way. Sometimes I do a cleanup just under my jawline and chin but that's about it. I have a very coarse beard and in the military so I need a presentable shave everyday, if it works for me it will probably work for most.

@bellezayverdad
@bellezayverdad 4 года назад
Not a bad blade overall. It is well-balanced in all the attributes whereby a blade can be assessed, which are sharpness, smoothness, durability and price/value. Some people seem to think that smoothness and sharpness are words used to describe different degrees of the same thing. How many times I've read "it is so smooth, it does not cut" or "this one is very sharp so it won't be nice on your skin". They're wrong. A blade can be sharp and smooth, not sharp but still smooth, sharp but rough and few very bad ones are dull and rough. Coming back to topic, I do not find these blades outstanding. They lack a little bit of sharpness and I've seen smoother ones. So far I've tried 5 blades. The Wilkinson Classics made in Germany, the BiCs Chrome Platinum, the Feathers, the Astras SP Green and these ones. The Wilkinsons are in my mind very similar to these, the BiCs are considerably rougher but also much sharper, the Feathers I feel them smoother than the BiCs and a tiny bit less sharp, which still makes them both sharper and rougher than the 7 O'clocks, but in any case I don't think it is worth it to pay the premium for this brand, and finally the Astra SP Greens. They are not as sharp as the BiCs or the Feathers but smoother than both and still sharper and cheaper than the 7 O'clocks being every bit as smooth. Just my 2 cents.

@TimothyAaronPotts 7 лет назад
First blade I ever ordered. Got a 50 pack for $12 Used about 10 blades since January. Ordered a 100 pk just last night for $22 Our Canadian dollar seems to affect the price. By my calculations, I should be good for almost 2 years? I've got nothing to compare them to, but they're my favorite. I can get 3 - 7 (2 or 3 pass) shaves from them. Thanks for the review on them!
@TimothyAaronPotts
@TimothyAaronPotts Год назад
I can't find the rest of the 50 pack... Just started the 100 pack. Long story short, my razor and blades got put in storage when I moved a couple years ago. Thought they were stolen, nope. So I got used to growing a beard. Really wish I could experience different blades, but it looks like I've got a few more years worth of blades. Unless I start shaving with a new blade every time - I can get a ridiculous amount of shaves from these blades, I don't even keep track anymore. Definitely don't shave every day like I did back then 😅

As soon as I start going against the grain with this razor I start getting a lot of nicks. But when I’m going with or across the grain it’s as smooth as butter. For me they are similar to the astra greens but not as good

@dillonjacobs9845 8 лет назад
Glad to see that these worked for you Nick, however when I tried these blades I have a very different experience. Every time I used them, I seemed to be getting a dull, rough, and and all around bad shave; so it's just weird to see that you had such a different experience. As they say, your mileage may vary! (Also, I did check and I was using the same one's you were, the Russian ones and not the ones made in India.)

The only Gillette 7 O'clock blades I've tried is the Yellow Perma-sharp. They are sharp but NOT smooth. I find the Gillette Silver Blues to be top notch sharp and smooth.
@shave-a-thon3415
@shave-a-thon3415 8 лет назад
As I've previously stated, my favorite is the Gillette Silver Blue and I really like the Gillette 7 O'Clock Yellows. Based on your review, I now have to pick up a pack or (100 pack) of the 7 O'Clock Greens. Since you don't perform an XTG pass on your neck, it's difficult to compare my shave to yours as that's where I'll get the occasional nick or two or 5. Why don't you try a pre-shave prep on the neck just for the XTG 2d pass. With the kind of lathering you usually do, it would probably cut down much of the irritation you feel. If you want to talk irritation, I have hairs growing down the neck to my collarbone. That XTG pass down there can really do some job on the skin if I'm not careful. There's nothing like that post shave hot and cold water splash if there's some irritation, then splashing on some witch hazel and an aftershave with a solid alcohol burn like Clubman VIBR or Clubman Regular, followed by a balm like Arko Ice Mint or Nivea Sensitive Cooling for men.

From what I saw in this video, I'm really impressed with these too. The price point is very nice. My top 3 are: Polsilvers, Gillette Silver Blue, and feathers. Do you recommend buying a 5 pack or just spending the $15 and picking up a 100 pack? Also, have you noticed a difference on your posts have feel when you use the thayer's witch hazel?
@BrianJacobson
@BrianJacobson 8 лет назад

+Abraham Villela I think that thayers witch hazel is good for my skin overall, perhaps not the best post shave - a little alcohol in my aftershave works well for me. But the witch hazel is some great stuff. I tend to go for 100 packs - better deal, you can usually find free shipping
@LucasKirbyMusic
@LucasKirbyMusic 8 лет назад
Hey Nick. Thanks for all the great videos. I'm very new to the DE world. In fact, I just had my first shave yesterday. Let's just say that I've got some definite room for improvement. I purchased a Phinnaeus J's Shave Club razor off of Amazon recently. It's a super long handle and claims that it addresses a lot of complaints from other razors. So far, it has very nice reviews, although it's numbers are limited. It seems of high quality, but I have nothing to compare it to, so who knows. My question: When putting a blade into a razor, should it have a curvature to it when looking at the exposed blade when installed into the razor and tightened down? I assumed it would be straight, but what do I know? I didn't get a very close shave at all (after three passes) and had a few "weepers" that were pretty mild. Anyway, I'm just not sure how much of my disappointing shave had to do with my being a "newb", or if this curvature (looks like a frowny face) was part of it. Thanks again. Awesome info and videos. Luke
@nickshaves
@nickshaves 8 лет назад
+Lucas Kirby Luke - congrats on the switch! Stick with it, my first DE shave wasn't that great. The blade should curve in the razor, pretty much all safety razors are designed this way, to give the blade a better angle to cut the hairs. Make sure you are using VERY light pressure while shaving - most new wet shavers use too much pressure
@LucasKirbyMusic
@LucasKirbyMusic 8 лет назад
Hey Nick. Sorry for taking so long to get back to you. I've shaved a couple times since then and am definitely getting better! The "no pressure" advice is priceless! Just to clarify on my previous question about the "curvature". I meant that there is a curvature in this blade if you were to look at the loaded and secured, blade from left to right (example: your profile picture on your channel shows you looking at the blade. Not the side, but the actual blade itself). It literally has a curvature on the very ends. I'm just wondering if this is normal, as my face is still a little irritated and I don't know what's at fault yet; my "newbness", or the actual razor. I've got a sampler pack coming, but am using the 7 oclock yellows that my razor came with(your recent video really put that blade into perspective). Again, thanks for the awesome vids!

@tocoutdoors2015 8 лет назад
Hey Nick, I was wondering you could give me some advice or anyone else for that feels like they can help:). Im trying to get my dad into Safety razor shaving, because he gets terrible bumps and ingrown hairs. We've been trying it for a few weeks now but he still gets some bumps & irritation. He's using a merkur Classic 1904/06, Crown Shaving Co shaving cream, Simpson brush, & Gillette Silver Blue Blades. Do you think we should try different blades or do you think his form just needs work?
@nickshaves
@nickshaves 8 лет назад
+tocoutdoors2015 Is the razor open comb or does it have a safety bar? The 1904 comes in 2 versions - he should be using the one with the safety bar. Definitely try some new blades, perhaps some Derby's due to their smoothness. But the number one variable is technique! Make sure he is using very very light pressure and he may want to try just shaving with the grain for a while
@tocoutdoors2015
@tocoutdoors2015 8 лет назад
Yes its the one with the safety bar, ill have him order some derbys and other blades you have reviewed. All good advice though, very much appreciated! I tried using his razor & didn't get any bumps so I think I'm going to make the switch as well. Happy Holidays

Hey Nick! I just started wet shaving and your videos helped me a lot! As I am from Austria I can not support you by buying on Amazon with your provided links (I would have to buy on Amazon.de). Do you have a paypal account to donate to or an address where we can send you samples of stuff we use?

+Dave C Were you using the permasharp or the super stainless? The super stainless are much better than the permasharps.
@davec6908
@davec6908 8 лет назад
+mresurm Thank you for your feedback :) I was using the super stainless (I still have a few left) but every time I went back to them, I just got a bad shave, it's a shame because I always heard good reviews about them :( But it's ok, my SP's and lab blues always work great. I was surprised when Nick said he thought the 7 o'clock greens were so similar to the lab blues :)
@Riyame
@Riyame 8 лет назад
Dave C I find they are similar to the GSBs performance wise to me and both are favorite blades. I haven't really tried lab blues yet.
@davec6908
@davec6908 8 лет назад
+mresurm the Personnas and Astras for me make it easy, but as I couldn't get the used to the 7 o'clocks and you love them, that probably counts for very little :D. I haven't tried gsb's, but I suppose the important thing is we both have our favourites that work well for us, and make this style of shaving such a pleasure :)
@Riyame
@Riyame 8 лет назад
Dave C Yup, blades are different for everybody. I find that regular "stainless" blades seem to work for me better than those that are coated with this and that.

Am I the only one who found this blade awful? I may have just had a bad sample but I got a dull blade which left me irritated. They weren't a patch on the Voskhods or the Sharks.
@craigsimpson1903
@craigsimpson1903 6 лет назад
Different strokes for different folks, these worked great for me , on a par with my go to Astra greens.Where as the Voskhods irritated the hell out of me. Its all part of the fun, we're all unique looking for the best blade for you.
