What's new

YOUR 1st one hundred blade purchase...

My first 100 were Astra SPs. My second were Derby Premium. I actually like the Derby Premiums, they aren't a bad blade. I've used much worse (Merkur for instance, awful, and Wilkinson Sword you can by locally do not work for me.)
 
Here’s a question: how many of you have used up your entire first pack of a hundred? How many have moved on to another brand before finishing?

As a relatively new DE shaver, I’m just curious...

My 1st 100 /pk was of Shark Super Stainless blades and went through about 30 or so and received some Shark Super Chrome blades in a BST buy with something else and liked the feel of those better and traded the SS for SC's with someone else down the road. I also traded some Polsilver's for SC's also so I am pretty much covered for some time to come as I only shave every other day and get 7 shaves per blade!!

I still use blades from the first 100 Astra SP but have bought over a thousand other blades. I usually use blades from tucks I buy to fill out orders to get free shipping. They are blades like rapira platinum, 7'oclock greens, blacks, Crown SS, etc...

My first 100 were Astra SP's, but they did not agree with my face so I gave them to a friend that likes them very much.
 
My first 2 100 packs of blades I bought were Derby Extra and Big Ben. I bought them at the same time on Amazon back in September of 2016; thinking they worked well for me after trying a sampler. I still enjoy Big Ben blades every now and then, but Derbys I realize were no good for me.
 
First hundred was Astra Green. Haven’t used them, hate them. Never bought a 100 pack thereafter. Only smalls packs of 30-50, so when I don’t like new blades, the waste is not as high. But years later and many blades tested, I stick to Feather and Polsilver as they work best for me...

My first 100 blades were derbys i think, they came with some soap that was pretty decent.

Hated the blades though, i stuck to using supermarket brand personnas and binned the derbys.
 
My first was Personna lab blues. Good blade. I however have since bought probably 1700 blades of all kinds and feathers are my #1 blade.
 
My first was Personna Lab. Then I got another 100 for Christmas several years ago. Then I bought 100 Personna Med Prep blades. Then I received 100 SuperMax Titanium blades for Christmas a few years back. I still have tons of all varieties left.
 
Gillette Platinum around three years ago. I use other blades now aswell but the Platinum is still one of the most used blades in my arsenal.
