    I started with feathers for my first shave... I've tried Derbys but they feel like they're trying to pull my hair out.

    The Gillette 7oclock blades are another one I like pretty well

  6. I like drug store brands for a double edge. $6 for ten, and more importantly, made in USA.

    If you're interested in made in the USA and want higher quality than the drug store brand at half the cost, try the personna lab blades. Quality rivals Feather in sharpness, but last twice as long for many people.
     
  8. Thanks for the info. I will definitely check them out. Do you get yours online?

    OK, I'm sorry.

    The first time I read through this thread I thought, "Blades is blades, the only difference is how long they stay sharp." Just a bunch of blade snobs name dropping. $1.79 Wilkinson’s are just fine.

    Well I used a feather this morning and slap me around and call me Susan if there isn't a difference! Now I have to go back over this thread and order some samplers.

    BTW The Wally World Wilkinson’s are worth $1.79. :D
