Great value. Very good product. Best double edge razor blades I have found in years.
Product Review: Derby: Great razor blade for a great Price Summary: 5 Stars
Derby blades are sharp, smooth and very forgiving. A great blade at a great price.
Product Review: Didn't do it for me Summary: 2 Stars
I've tried Derby Extras in several razors (adjustable, fixed, open-comp, closed), and each time I load a new one, it feels like the 1-week-old blade of some other brand that I just discarded. I understand these work wonders for some people, but this long-time DE shaver isn't among them. They always required at least one more pass than my other blades for the same result.
Product Review: Dissatisfied Summary: 1 Stars
I can't tell if it is the sharpening pitch on these blades or if they are just poorly honed, but in my case they performed poorly. I can only describe them as feeling very rough and irritating. I have been a blade shaver for over 45 years, and from my recent experience I believe that it is getting almost impossible to find quality blades anymore. I've read several forums that advocate a perfection of shaving "technique", and steaming the beard for several minutes under a hot towel followed by the application of some exotic soap with a badger or sable brush followed by balms etc. etc. This isn't rocket science folks, and it needn't be as ritualistic as a japanese tea ceremony. It's just shaving for pete's sake, and if you've got a poor blade nothing will compensate for that.
Product Review: Don't work for me Summary: 2 Stars
Shipping was right on time, price was great but the blades themselves left a lot to be desired. I had a total of 4 shaves with two different blades in both an EJ and Merkur razor. After a 4 pass shave I still needed a shave. The one plus? No nicks at all. I have heard from others that these blades work for them. They didn't for me. Your mileage may vary.
