Which Blades First?

[moodymick]

Need some advice here gents (or ladies), I recently bought anothwer razor on Ebay and it will come with the following brands of blades:

"Treet Blades (x 4 types), Persona Platinum Chrome US, Wilkinson Sword Classic, Astra Superior Platinum, Sputnik, Super-Max, Dorco - for beginners, Super-Max Platinum, Israeli Persona".

I currently use a 38C with Derby Extras (yeah i know what some people think, but i got no complaints) - the question i do have though is what would you recommend i go with first and what if any do i avoid.

cheers

I reckon you should give each blade atleast a few tries.... If you get mass irritation, dont use it again of course. But most blades are best on the second shave. No harm trying all of them! You might be suprised with which one comes out ontop and have alot of fun along the way.

I always test out new razors with Derbys. Makes it easier for me to compare the shaves I get with different razors. After a couple of shaves with the Derby, then I decide if I want to try other blades.

I would go with the Astras or the Israeli reds, they seem to be my best non-feather blade
