Wilkinson Sword Quattro Titanium Razor Blades

I have been using the Wilkinson Quattro Titanium now for a good few years, since the famous freebie for the razor, well it certainly worked on me, was the best shave I had ever had and since then haven't been near anything else, they may have sent out a free bie but they have got hundreds from me in charge for these replacement razor blades. The blades usually come in packs of either 4 or 8, I usually get the 4 packs because for some reason it's cheaper to get 2 packs of 4 than 1 pack of 8 at a lot of places, for what reason i'm not sure, maybe the inconvinience but I would have thought the extra packaging would have upped the price, the cost for a 4 pack from ...  Read the complete review

When I was younger I was very lazy when it came to shaving and if I was lucky I could go 2-3 weeks without needing to do much more than wash my mug... good times. By the time I finished University, however, I was finding that shaving any less than once a week left me looking like a Neanderthal who'd somehow managed to get dressed and hold down a job! A few years ago I discovered the Wilkinson Sword Quattro Titanium razor after receiving a free sample thanks to a link from one of the fledgling consumer awareness sites that are so prevalent nowadays. Shaving with a good quality multi blade razor was somewhat enlightening for a chap with fairly sensitive skin ...  Read the complete review

The Wilkinson Sword Quattro Titanium razors are available in packs of four for £5.38 or eight for £8.99. Whilst they are expensive they are around the same price as similar products such as the Gilette Mach 4 blades. This Quattro titanium blade consists of a plastic frame containing four individual blades, all differently angled, enabling the shave to get closer and closer as each blade passes over the skin. You take one stroke and the razor takes four. I also find four times the blades four times the irritation although I do have to go over my face three or four times to get the same level of closeness when using a single blade razor. So it is a swings and ...  Read the complete review

I found these to be absolutely brilliant razor blades for sensitive skin. They seem to be far sharper than their rivals and I find much less drag and pulling when using them. They just seem to cut through the hairs without any effort. The end result is much less redness and irritation. If you've ever had to wear a fastened shirt collar and tie to work with a neck that feels it is on fire then you will really appreciate these! They also seem to stay sharper for far longer than the non-titanium version. So you won't buy as many and you can easily get away with taking only the blade in your razor on holiday with no need to pack spares. One trick ...  Read the complete review

I've been a fan of Wilkinson Sword since I started wet shaving in the mid-90s (I used an electric razor for 10 years before that.) I thought the Gillettes were a bit too expensive at the time and I think they still are. So I started with the Protector (3 blades), and then tried the Quattros (4 blades) when they came out, then the Titaniums. Has anyone found any difference in performance between the first Titaniums and the redesigned ones with the edging blade along the top? I haven't. To me it's just a case of WS playing catchup with Gillette. I think the Quattro Titaniums are great. I get at least 12 shaves out of each blade, with the ...  Read the complete review
