pace blades

Local discount drug store has a 5 pack of Pace brand DE blades for 88 cents. Anyone know anything about these blades or have any experience? I plan on picking up a pack to give then a try since it's less than a buck. Can't buy a cup of joe for that.

 

i can. at the buttery bakeshop. a medium.

 

But how does it shave?

 

maybe it works like that powder stuff. ill throw it in my face and find out.

 

Remember the pictures

 

youre thinking small. it should be a video.

 

I bet there isn't a warning on the label for that use. Can you smell a frivolous lawsuit?


I still don't know why that comment originally ended up in the wrong thread... oh well. Here have a 2nd frivolous lawsuit Dave. Get the book in Hard Cover and Gold Filigree.

By all means...pick them up and post pictures, we need to know!

 

This might be a reach but back in the `90s, Kmart ran a Sam's Club-type operation called Pace. My employer bought memberships for the staff so I shopped there a few times. It was eventually bought out by Sam's Club. I wonder if these are house brand blades from that store.

 

I will do so in the next couple days.

 

Here's the photos.

The Korean-made grocery store blades are usually Dorcos, right?

i want to say theyre ASR rebrands, but there are some differences.

 

That is my understanding. Dorco is/was involved in a lawsuit due to marketing look alike blades in the U.S., so that is one of the reasons that Dorco is the assumed made in Korea manufacturer.

As I recall, the store brands made in Korea shaved worse than the ST-300 for me. the ST-301s are another step-up from that.

 

Reedsteed, those are not Pace brand blades. They are Personna blades. What is going on is the American Shaving and Razor Company (ASRCO) makes a line of blades called Personna which they sell to a company called Pace which then repackages the blades afixing their name to the packaging and re-sells them under there own name. Those are again not Pace brand blades they are ASRCO Personna blades. As evidence I have attached a photo of the ARSCO Personna blades.

 

Just as an aside to the thread... I would highly recommend that you do not use the made in Korea super market SE blades.. they could not shave peach fuzz ofin a babe's behind.
