Great safety razor with 100 blades included. First time using this type of shave system and it was by far the fastest and closest shave ever. I found that using it along with a good moisturizing shave cream allows it to glide so easy and fast. This ends up being a much better value than commercial multi-blade razors and this gives a a shave thats as close as you can get. Smooth!

Last year I finally got fed up with paying extortion prices to Gillette. I tried an electric razor for about a month and that sucked (Braun). So next step I decided to try wet shaving. Purchased this razor, some blades, a cheap badger brush, and some shaving cream (Taylor of Old Bond Street).

Everything has worked out great. I have a giant beard that grows quickly. I often skip a week or so of shaving and have no problem cutting it down with this setup (cuts through the beard without pulling). Best shave I've every gotten and I wish I'd started this sooner.

I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing all this stuff, but it has worked out great. Took about a week of shaving to get adjusted, and after that not much of a problem. Just take it slow and check out some of the sites online dedicated to wet shaving for tips.

If you're contemplating make the jump, do it! You will save money in the long run at the expense of about 5 minutes per shave.

I have dropped this razor without issue. I have used it exclusively since November 2009. I can only compare it to the cartridge razors I used before. This has a much heavier feel. I cannot compare to other safety razors though. This is the only one I've owned, and may be the only one I'll ever need.

Only problem I have ever had was the occasional clog. Crank the water up or unscrew the bottom 1 turn and it's gone. This is probably not normal though. As I said earlier I sometimes skip a week or two of shaving and my nick name in high school was Teen Wolf.

Opinions seem to vary wildly when it comes to DE blades, but I found Crystals to be one of the best performing brands for my face. For context, I've tried Derby, red pack Personnas, Astra, Iridiums, Gillette 7 O'clock, Shark, Dorco, Lord, and Bic. It's my understanding the Crystals are rebranded Israeli Personnas, which I've also tried and liked a lot.

Merkur Classic "1904" Straight Safety Razor-#42- Made in Germany for $32.95


List Price:$34.95

Available at Amazon

Not a bad DE razor considering the price. Better quality than other cheaper ones but not the "top notch" quality people say Merkurs have. It's solidly build and will last a long time but the finish isn't the best.

Another issue is the handle, it's fairly short so it might take a few shaves to get used to it.

I liked it though, it's not overly aggressive, it's forgiving, fairly well balanced, and original looking considering today's standards.

The design is great if you want something with some "character" but don't want to buy a used antique razor.

Again, not a bad razor for the price but I wouldn't pay much more for it. There are other brands out there that offer outstanding quality at a similar price and, unless I have no choice, I'll stick with those.

I just graduated from college and feel like I'm moving on to the next stages of my life as a man. I am very excited about the future, but I need to be ready for the work force which means the closest, cleanest shave I can get. Don't get my wrong, within the past two years I've kept a conservative look to attain jobs on campus, but now it's time to step up my game. My usual disposable razor and cheap shaving cream has served me well, but what kind of impact does my disposable plastic razors leave on the environment? Also, why can't I get a close shave? Well, I decided to try something new, I guess old in this case, and I haven't been disappointed. This razor is lightweight, strong, and dependable. This has been the closest shave of my life; we're talking baby soft. This kind of shaving requires a bit of practice and technique, I've definitely had a few nicks on the neck, but is worth the time and effort.

I can honestly say that I get excited about shaving! I feel like I'm using a tried and true product rather than the disposable, multiple blade systems that leave my skin irritated and burned. I highly recommend this product along with Van Der Hagen Premium Shave Set (Soap, Bowl, Brush) and Derby Extra Double Edge Razor Blades - 25 Ct for anyone willing to try something besides annoyingly useless products.

Keeping it short and sweet - look at my review about double edge or wet shaving. you should have gained two important points - once you master your shaving form and once you find the right blade for you - life is good. if you use or like any of the following stainless steel (not chrome) razors - ASCO, BIG BEN, SHARK - and you get a great shave with those blades - then the Derby Blades are for you. why? they work just as well as those brands (and probably many other stainless steel blades!) but they are much, much cheaper. for example just searching amazon you should find 100 blades for bucks with a free shaving soap and free shipping thrown in!! search the internet (chat rooms, shaving clubs and other websites) and you may find them at a cheaper price!! again, going with the points I have listed - and you have truly tried other brands - you may find it to be an outstanding blade - on the cheap!!

I am please with these as an everyday go to work shave. But there

I purposely rise 15 min early to enjoy the process of shaving.
I should have done it more often. I think it headed off the morning
rush-rush and I would have made better decisions to start the day.

It came time to "invest" in new blades for my electric razor that "shaves as close as a blade" again, and I decided to go back to the Gillete safety razor made in the 1950's my father had abandoned years ago. I liked the results, and the cheap blades, so much better than the electric that I went out and bought this one. It's a solid peice of simplicity, and didn't take long to get used to. The Merkur blade was nice, but I switched it out for Derby's. Don't. Go looking for "Shark" blades. You can get them in lots of 100 cheap, and they're just as good as the Merkur one. They're Indian made instead of German, though, if that means anything to you.

Wilkinson Sword Classic Double Edge Razor Blades, 5 Per Pack X 20 Packs (100 Blades)

I've been using Wilkinson razors since 1967 and only stopped when I broke my old safety razor.

Found the very nice Parker butterfly on Amazon and bought this size pack for the price and to have enough on hand (Can't be found locally.)
These blades rate alongside of their competitor blade in giving a close, smooth shave without the burn and redness that the new multi-blade razors tend to leave.

And the price is much, much lower. I have a course, heavy beard and I can get about 5 or 6 shaves per blade.
I only get about three or four with the top of the line multi-blade.

If you're considering a switch, it may take a few weeks to adjust but I think you'll find it worth the effort.

Okay, I'm old school and I don't like shaving with a razor that looks like it could beam Spock aboard, but the bottom line is comfort and price and less to go into the land fill.

I just switched from cartridge to safety razors a month ago. I got my dad's classic safety razor and ordered this pack of blades. I have been enjoying trying out the different blades to see which ones work best for me. So far I think I like the Astra Platinum the best. Buying the variety pack was the recommendation in the reviews of one of the other single-brand blade packs, and it made sense. I'm really glad I bought this pack.
