What is the worst blade you have used in your razor?

Rei Mei (came 'free' with cheap Chinese razor), Dorco ST300, Balaka (I donot think that is even made for safety razor).
Same here. The free blade that came in a cheap $20 Wahl kit I bought at Wal-Mart. Razor is a knock off of the Merkur 34c. Nowhere near as good, but decent enough. Anyway, the blade that came with it was utter garbage and went in the trash after one pass.
Shark Super Chrome. Rough.
Astra Superior Platinum. Absolutely trash.
I don't know how people can even use these things, let alone like them!
I find the Superior Stainless are pretty good, kinda strange.

Baili probably rates as the worst that I have tried, although there are other members of my ‘bottom tier.’
Merkur - felt like my face was being ripped off, layer by layer.
Dorcos are pretty rough, but these are even worse:
I am, however, tempted to try Merkurs after reading through many of the votes here.

Merkur - a horrible shave
Merkur blade that came with the razor.
Mem Super Silver Platinum from Serbia. So terribly bad that I discarded a brandnew blade after only three short strokes and disposed of the entire tuck.
Merkur.
Count Dracula draws less blood than Merkur DE blades.

Merkur blade in my merkur razor.
Someone should pay merkur more money to NOT include this stupid blade for free.

You aren't a good Christian. A good Christian would turn the other cheek!
Funny how our mileage varies. I've just had a great shave with an SP. Maybe It's because I angle the blade about 22 degrees.
I used an Astra SP last night in my Futur clone. Neck was irritated and it was not a great shave. It was a close shave, but had I an alum block with me on this trip, it would have stung something fierce. Apparently Astra SP blades and I don't get along to well.
Same here, i bought them because many people seem to like them, but they are not for me. Every time i used them, i got nicks and skin irritation, even in my mildest razor. After trying a few of these blades in different razors, i gave up on them.
I'm the same way with German Wilkis. I bought a tuck because people seemed to love them. They don't work for me at all.
