Double Edge Razor Blade Sample Pack #7 - 45 Blades

Comment: Sample packs are really the way to go when trying to find blades that work well with your shaving regimen. I have started shaving exclusively with a safety razor the past several months and have been trying various blades. The sample packs make this much easier and cheaper than buying a bunch of blades from each manufacturer, which I had previously done.
I highly recommend that people try these packs out for themselves and don't rely solely on single manufacturers until you find the right one for your face. I fell for the hype on a couple of the big name blade makers only to buy a bunch of their blades and receive mediocre results. Of the 10 or so brands I've used, I have found a brand that works great for me and it is all thanks to this sample pack.

Comment: So far, my experience has been good. I'm still in the process of testing out each of the razors. I'm currently using the Red Dorco (sp) blades, which are top notch so far. Incredibly sharp and high quality. Especially on the second and third pass, the shave is incredibly smooth with no irritation and I get 10 of them! Derby razors also provided good shaves.

The Lord and Persona blades are probably my least favorite. They seem to be wider than the other blades, so the shave isn't as close or was more irritating. This also could be related to the design of my razor, so take this review with a grain of salt. I've yet to try the Astra pack or the Blue Dorcos.

None of the razors showed any sign of rust after extended use and would go at least 3-4 shaves without significant wear. An excellent inexpensive pack with a lot of choices that will last an extremely long time.
