Just received my "Everything" sample pack of blades from West Coast Shaving. Anxious to start trying different blades. I have been using the Merkur blades that came with my new 34c. I know there has to be some better than that. Photo of sample pack attached. Also got new boar (Semogue) and horse hair (Vie Long) brushes.
Good question. Its like having a big box of chocolates and trying to decide which one to eat first. Probably the Astra first.
