What blade would you recommend for very sensitive skin that still produces a close shave?
Thanks

Best Blade for Sensitive Skin?

Gillette Silver Blue or Personna Lab Blues or Med Preps.
Israeli Red Personna.
In a mild razor like a DE89L I would recommend a Super Iridium.
In an aggressive razor like a r41, a smooth but slightly less sharp blade like the Dorco.
The latter is easiest on my skin. Two passes and done.

There isn't much background information in your post so I will try my best.
In my opinion, suppose you have an average beard, use proper prep, have a medium aggressive razor and your lather is sound, I would recommend a sharp blade that will give you a DFS in one pass. I would try Feather, Gillette 7 O'Clock Sharp Edge, Blacks for instance.
Any additional pass will only increase the risk of irritation. Your brush is important as well. So is the number of strokes per pass.
Once you get irritation free DFS shaves consistently you could try a second pass for an ever closer result.
I have found feather blades to be superb as I have sensitive skin. They are super sharp which means you have to go over areas less and have an extremely close shave, well for my anyways.
Feather or Gillette 7 o' Clock Black. Tried feather recently and was very pleased with the closeness and comfort. Sharper blade = less passes or pressure required; which means less irritation.
