There's not a lot of feedback about the various Durablade razor blades, so I thought I would start a thread and consolidate my opinions here about them as I try each version.

I have not tried all of them. The racer is one I have not yet tried. I have also not tried Lord Classic and some others I think the Cool could be a good one for me. A few reviews suggest it is up there with the Silver Star.

Also, what height did your dad set the knot? I looked at AP’s website and the knot has a white band at the bottom of the knot where the hairs are set in plastic: I cannot see that band on my brush so I am assuming he placed them further down the hole.
