Amazon Canada (thru Wish4Blades) had 200 packs of Israeli Reds for about $20US until a week or two ago. I bought 800 over the last year or so. Crazy cheap at about $10US/100. Almost doubled in price since.
What's Your Latest 100 Blade Purchase, And Why?
- Thread starter DaltonGang
- Start date
I bought them at razorbladeclub.com 10.99 euros per 100. Bought some other blades together. They have a flat rate of 2.99 euro. Buy as many as you want and shipping is always 2.99. I thought it was a good deal.
Recently I picked up 500 Polsilver SI blades but in head to head testing with Wizamet SI blades I found that the Wizamet SI lasted longer and felt slightly smoother to me. So I sold 400 of the Polsilver blades and bought 500 Wizamet blades (two sleeves of 250 blades) with the money from the Polsilvers and even had a little bit left over. The Wizamet SI blades are currently selling for $44.95 for a 250 sleeve but if you buy two sleeves the cost drops to $40.45 a sleeve so the price per blade is slightly more than 16 cents a blade.
Where to you get them?
The Polsilvers I got from another member who lives in eastern Europe. The Wizamets I got here: Wizashave
I ordered a 100 pack of Lord Cools. Read about them on here, and it piqued my curiosity. So i had to give them a try. If they are not good for me, I will just give them away. At 7 bucks and change for a hundred, it is worth a shot.
Astra Superior Platinum 100
They are very smooth with the skin.

I also prefer the Astra SS, rather than the Astra SP.

Likewise, the Astra SS and the GSB seem to be exactly the same to me.

A 100 pack g platinum light blue
A 100 pack g kcg
A 250 pack wizamet super iridium
why
Wizamets are Very nice blades
I allready liked g platinum dark blue
I could get the kcg 50% off which made them more affordable and everyone was raving about them.
Wanted to compare kcg with platinum light blue and restock my platinum dark blues (which shave differently).
So my drawer is a bit overflowing since I also had some other blades uhhh more likely close to a 750 blades… that is a couple of years shaving

Do these blades get better after the first shave? I have binned mine after the first use, because they were not sharp enough. They are really smooth, so i might give them another try.
My latest purchase was 200 New Gillette Platinum, white letter blue box. I bought them so my blade collection will last 392 years instead of a modest 388 years.
I use the Personna Med Prep, similar to the Lab Blue. The first shave is not nearly as good as the subsequent ones. You should experiment more with the Labs.
Good blades.
You were not the only one
And juuup fijn mesje. Nice blade!

This is so true! I plan to leave mine to my son. At least he uses a DE. I may have done one thing right: he's cheap, er.....frugal like his old man.
So you learned him the trick with the three sea shells…
