My grandfather was in WW1 and it was still standard to use straight blade razors then. I still have his kit with about 8 of them inside.

Razor blades are supposed to be “sharp”. But when you qualify a blade as “not sharp” it sounds like a reject immediately. Perhaps a better way to qualify the sharpness of the blades would be to talk about their mildness versus aggressiveness from the start.

Right. A razor blade by its definition is sharp.

With a "plutonium" coating, I think you'd have bigger problems than getting the right sharpness.

I have the unfortunate combo of extremely coarse hair with insanely sensitive skin. My hair wants feather blades but my skin wants derby, so I just use derby and it takes me longer than probably most people to shave. It never tugs but there are spots on my neck where it's basically impossible to not get irritation.

Wow! It was so hard watching him shave. He didn't look like he knew what he was doing. I've NEVER seen anyone leave so much lather behind.

He took so long to shave. So many passes. So slow. Maybe he was doing mega-multiple passes to demonstrate his technique with each blade.

Do you guys have a list anywhere showing the aggressiveness of the blades?

I find using a Samurai single edged sword cuts down on waste and works really well on the neck line. It usually just takes one swoop to get the job done. Extremely efficient and cost effective!

I bought the super variety pack with like 30 different razor blades in it. I started with all the big names, then my 2 year old wanted me to try the sharks one day and I did to appease him. I was so surprised, but they are incredible. One of my top 3 actually.

If you shave after a shower pretty much any blade will do a good job, i have derby's in an edwin jagger and they slice through with no resistance or pulling, they are also good to the face with no razor burn or nicks.

Nice video! By the way, Derby also has a new product, the Premiums (made with Sweedish steel) that's sharper than the original Extras and that falls in the same category as the Astra SP.

How you have Nacet below Astra is beyond me.

I’ve just stared shaving with a DE razor, I enjoy it very much. Merkur 34c hd and feather blade. As long as I take my time I don’t nick or cut myself. Probably should test other blades though

@johndgt

i've just started DE shaving as well, but i don't much enjoy of it, the result is great but it takes time. it's just because of budget, gillete fusion is excellent but it costs too much and it shaves four or five times just perfect but then you need to change a cartridge which is kinda expensive. DE razor blades are much more cheaper, wilkinson sword blades give a pretty nice result for me for the same four or five times of shaving and their cost is acceptable.

I'm a professional Barber I have noticing difference in between blades of Derby, shark, I'd use feather razor for all shaves. They are superb very sharp... Shark blades for cleanup only..

Tried a derby the other day. I had to switch mid-shave because it was so terrible

@@tardis9905 a blade is never too sharp. Never. You might not be used to this style of razor handles. I started off with the merkur 34C with a feather blades and wow was it sharp. It’s a very open razor. I hated it at first but slowly over a few months I conditioned my skin and muscle memory to be soft and gentle with it. Use a shave oil, good lather and soft soft soft, short strokes, once you get used to it, I think you’ll love it, just my 2 cents. I mean I do have extremely sensitive skin and freaking thick facial hair (bad combo) and it works well. I’d recommend you try it out for a few weeks. Develop the skill cause DE shaving is certainly a skill that needs practice. Cheers Tardis!

The smoothest blade I've ever used were the Wilkinson chromium blades that were made in England. They are still some around, but the price they're commanding is obnoxious. I got 10 packs of 5, 4 years ago for $55. That may sound ridiculous, but a pack of 5 is now going for $25 to $40. That's 5 blades. There tons of nice blades available, but those Wilkinson's are a cut above every other blade and they last.

I believe you have misplaced the Gillette Nacet blades in the least sharp category. No doubt it’s as sharp as feathers. Also, that might be the dryest lather ever seen in your videos :) (whatever works for you buddy)

I agree. Nacet is up there with Feather for sharpness.

Is derby at least better than a gillette mach 3 cartridge?

The king c Gillette aren’t that bad too.

Beside the skin and beard texture, the design of the razor affects and some extent dictates which blades would work better. A mild razor (as determined be the blade angle, exposure, gap,... etc) would work better with a sharper blade and a more aggressive razor is more likely to work better with a smoother blade...

Freddy, You can use the same blades in your straight razor. Just fold the blade,down the middle (while it’s still wrapped) and it will snap right in half. Of course there are blades sold that have already been cut in half but you can have the flexibility of trying and using all of these blades if you will snap your own in half. Just find anyone who is selling a DE blade “sampler pack” and you will able to try them all.

The Plutonium blades are of course classified. 😬

Also Shark is pretty darn sharp.
