News blades..which one first.?!

Hey guys just got my order of blades in the mail today, so am looking on which one to try first, the only blades I ever tried are murkers.My choices are Gillette yellows, feathers, Personnas reds, derby's, astras, iridium...any suggestions.??
Thanks,
 
General recommendation is to start with the least sharp blades, which would be Astras or Red Personnas.

Save the Feathers for last, and the 7o'clock yellows and Iridiums just before that.

As always with blades, YMMV.

Great advice. Can't add anything to it.

+1. This is the order I used my blades in.
 
Well sorry guys I couldn't wait, I had to try the Astras first, Its just that so many people had give it great reviews..All i got to say it these some might fine blades :tongue_sm. I defiantly felt the difference from those inferior merkur's (that's my opinion) Blades..I gave me self only one nick:crying: but its was a small one, other than that i cant wait to shave again with these blades..
How long should i shave with these blades(two blades the move on) intill going on to my next sampler..?
 
I am working through sampler also. i am sticking to 2 shaves per blade and just 2 blades of each flavour. am currently on Personna's (not red ones, these are in a blue pack), they are ok but my favourites to date are Astras. Next in line are iridiums then feathers - gulp!!
 
I'm going through the big pack from West Coast Shaving and I usually try and use a blade up. I've so far gone through about 5 different brands one blade each. There were a couple that I did two blades before moving on but just on occasion. Still got 8 or 9 to go!
