Product Reviews of Merkur Double Edge Razor Blades - Pack Of 10 Blades - Made In Germany
Product Review: Great Blades but Pricey
Summary: 4 Stars
I got a pack that came with my razor. They shave great, day after day. But at $6.50 without shipping and handling, ouch. I found Derby razors that shave just the same, a 100 blades for around $20 WITH shipping and handling. Anyhow, both blades shave for shave are way cheaper than disposables. I would get a small pack of Derby blades to try out. Product Review: Great razors at a great price
Summary: 5 Stars
Short: I highly recommend the product.
These are great razors at a great price. I analyzed prices found on the Internet and it sounds like you will be paying 50 cents per blade. That price is more than fair for the quality of these blades. They are sharp, durable and you can recycle them after you are done. Can you do the same with Mach-3 cartridges? Tip -- buy them in bulk.
If you have spare time do your wallet a favor and calculate how much money you will save by switching to double edge razors. I can't believe I used to spend $120+ per year on Mach-3 systems!
Product Review: Go with Feather or Derby
Summary: 1 Stars
Way too expensive, bad QC, not the sharpest. At a $2.00 they'd be good, at the prices Merkur charges, its highway robbery!Product Review: good but unforgiving
Summary: 4 Stars
I am new to the whole old-school wetshaving thing, and like many of the other reviewers here, I am actually enjoying shaving for the first time ever. From my first Atra to my last Fusion, I succeeded primarily in scraping off half my face before razor-burned first dates and family photos. Utter garbage from Gillette and Schick.
Now I find myself geeking out, checking out soap vs. cream, Portuguese vs. Italian vs. English vs. American creams, and, finally, different blades in my Merkur HD razor with my badger brush. Most of other people's observatons vis-a-vis aggressiveness seem to match my experience so far. The Israeli blades are very forgiving, but the shave is not as close. I'm waiting for my shipment of Feather blades from Japan to see if they are as aggressive as they say.
As for these blades, they're the first I used with my new set-up, post-Gillette. They immediately gave me an ultra close shave, but with a few small nicks and no burn at all. I am going back to them after discarding my current blade, a crappy American-made blade I bought in the grocery store for $2 for 10. So I'll find out if the few nicks were in my learning curve or just a byproduct of the aggressiveness of the blade.
I am not anti-capitalist nor anti-big business. I am, though, anti-big marketing firms that mold people's perceptions in order to sell mass quantities of crap to the "great unwashed". I am now well-washed. And shaven..
Product Review: Great blades
