just to top it off right? lol
Wow... honestly I thought I was going overboard buying a sleeve of 100 of them.. I have around 120 Gillette Silver Blues (the leftovers of my previous gsb sleeve, and my new gsb sleeve) what can I say? I found something I liked and want to keep it simple blade wise. Having said that, I see a lot of folks with those Gillette Nacet blades.. maybe I'll get some from try a b and see.
About a thousand but i haven't bought any more in a few months so i'm getting more self control.
I have about 250 or so Personna Blue. About 100 or so Gillette Wilkinson Sword. I also have a few 5 packs of various blades, maybe less than 20 or so total. Not much by the B&B standards probably.
My spreadsheet with number of blades and estimated number of shaves per blade type.
| Gillette Silver Blue | 990 | 4455 |
| Gillette Nacet | 385 | 1732.5 |
| Gillette Perma Sharp | 95 | 427.5 |
| Wilkinson Sword Classic | 20 | 80 |
| Rapira Superior Stainless | 90 | 270 |
| Rapira Platinum Lux | 45 | 180 |
| Derby Usta | 90 | 360 |
| Voskhod | 145 | 580 |

My exploding razor knows secrets
If David S. Taylor of P&G is also at B&B, he will be an absolute winner.

Well, I like them a lot, and the price was under 0,1$/ blade so I stocked a lot.

cool, i assume youre in the states as you mention the currency in $
not sure how much they cost here in the uk but i wouldnt imagine it would be too much to be fair
I got them from Turkish wholesale website for approx 6$ per 100 pieces, and via parcel forward service for approx 20$ to Croatia. Luckily it went under the radar with no customs fees or vat.

I've only been into this hobby about 8 months now and have well over 2500 blades. It's so addicting and exciting to try so much stuff from around the world. I have more than enough to shave the next 10 years. Acquisition disorder is a real thing.

I think what it is as well us the fact that you save so much money with de blades when wet shaving compared to using cartridges you don't feel as guilty as spending and treating yourself to a fair few blades imo
That's some collection though 2500, which brand blades do you have? A wide variety?
A wide variety for sure. With a collect em all emphasis on lord blades. All their stainless varieties really seem to give me a smooth and effective shave. I have found that their is definitely more good blades then bad blades in the world. I also think as time goes on my technique gets better and I can enjoy more blades that before I thought were to harsh.

Which Lord blades do you like?
Could you post which ones in order of preferences thanks
Lately I can't go wrong with Asco orange, silver star, rainbow, lord cools, or racers. I don't know if it's a psychological thing but if I shave with racer I tend to go faster. Lord cools though I think are super underrated. I tried them in vintage gilletes to new merkurs open comb closed comb it didn't matter. Great blade IMO.
