Thanks for checking in Spike. Hope all is well with you. Yes, blades...what can I say. The search should be a short one. I am really just testing three blades: GSB, Astra SP and Derby Extra. Over the past year I have purchased 100 of each because I knew these blades were ideal for me. Now I am trying to match each one with one of three different razors. It may be a bit of a wasted effort since I get an excellent shave with any of the three razors and any of the three blades. I would just like to pick up a razor and know that its perfect made-in-heaven match is a particular blade. This entire exercise has taught me one thing: it doesn't take much to amuse me!Finally caught up here. Good stuff!
Yep, searching for the perfect blade can take a long while . . . I spent more than 10 months & that was for just one razor! In the end, you may have to put some artificial limit on how many/how expensive you’re willing to test . . . or I suppose you could decide the journey is the destination . . . that didn’t work for me though. I had to get to where I could buy 100 of my ‘best’ and not bat around any more.
