    My most recent lot of blades (which should be my last, given that my current stash will long outlast me) is a set of 22 blister packs of vintage Personna injector twin blades of six blades per pack. They cost about the same per-blade as modern Chick injector blades, and will satisfy my twin blade itch forever.

    I ordered 100 Derby blades for like $5, it's one of the gifts I'm giving my son.
    But the real reason is because I am his supplier and tired of giving him my more expensive blades.

    I'm a longtime user of Feather blades. I just ordered some Astra SPs, Perma-Sharp Supers, and Polsilver Super Iridiums for variety. I'm well pleased with these blades so far.

    Voskhod and Sharp Star. After the first of the year I'll be adding some Russian variety packs.

    My last blade purchase as over a year ago and it was 100 Astra SPs. I later found my magic box of blades, so I still set for a decade or so.

    Feather Hi-Stainless Double Edge Blades. They behave consistently in a large variety of razors plus the have a built-in blade disposal in the dispenser.

    Just bought another 100 box of Derbys. They are my favorite blade, and they are inexpensive, thankfully. After this purchase, I have about 800 blades. Astra SP, Derby, and Gillette Silver Blue.

    100 Astra SPs because I liked them in my sampler pack and 100 Voskhods because of some great advice from the guys on the 30 day forum

    Volkhods. I hadn't tried them but heard good things. I will likely order something else next time, but they weren't bad.

    Astra sp. Tried it in a sample pack along with astra ss, personna lab blue and derby. Astra sp is the blade that has answered my prayers. This blade is so smooth and sharp enough for me. The razor just glides on my beard. These blades have become my go to blades from now on. I use proraso red tube, merkur 34c, lather & wood aftershave balm or proraso aftershave balm.

    I can't even remember the last time I bought blades. I got 100 Personna Lab blades from my Secret Santa in 2015 and before that I got 100 SuperMax Titanium blades from my Secret Santa in 2014. I think the last ones were 100 Personna Med Prep blades. I have about 250 Personna Lab blades, probably 90 Med Preps, around 80 SuperMax Titanium blades, around 200 Polsiver Super Iridium blades, and lots of assorted blades. And two straight razors.

    200 Pol Silver Super Iridiums because it was widely thought that the blades had been discontinued and its by far my favorite blade.
