Iranian Sharp

Post by malocchio »

http://postimg.org/gallery/orwwlam4/ ......Not to be confused with Sharp blades from Bangladesh ,this is solely a blade manufactured in Iran.I shave every other day ,so the blade has a little extra work to do.I used 7 different razors and 7 different creams / soaps on this test run.Today ,on the 7th shave the blade just started to tire out a little at my worst area along the right jawline ,but I still managed a BBS...Sharp is better than Merkur or Croma Diamant ,maybe BICs as well.I wish I could find a few hangers of these blades ,they are extremely rare outside of Iran and a great blade for any collection.

Good to see your impressions of the Tíz (Farsi for "sharp") blades, Ron. They match mine and those of a fellow member on the Portuguese forum, BarbearClássico:

....You don't have to have a beard to be a Muslim man...Rick Steves did a great one hour travel tour video in Iran , most all young men are clean shaven, Pakistan and Bangladesh have the same story ,and they also produce great blades.
