I avoided these blades for so long because of my experience with Persona Reds. The reds just might be the worst blade for me. The Med Preps however are my new go to blade I absolutely love them in every way. Sharp, Smooth, long lasting. I had 6 comfortable shaves with the Med Prep. I usually get 4 or so out of most blades I have tried. The lab was almost as good, maybe not quite as sharp and the 6 shave on it was less than comfortable. Both blades are going into my buy more list. Along with Gillette 7'Oclock Black packs, Perma sharp supers, and Bolzano.
Tried Med Preps and Labs for the first time

I loaded up a fresh Med this morning, after several months of wandering through other blades. Yep, it's still my favorite. There are lots of good ones out there, but IMO this is the best blade on the planet. The 7 O'Clock Black comes very close, but I'd have to rank it against a vintage Spoiler if I wanted to top it.
I have 200 of the Lab Blues. You could say I like 'em. Smooth as silk, they last at least five 3-pass shaves and I found them at a nice price on the Bay. Good blades, always a DFS for me.
