Author: P Vickery Quite good blades comparible to Merker
Author: Dan at The Shaving Shack We're very impressed with these blades here at the Shaving Shack. Being in the lucky position of getting to test drive new products, I loaded my Merkur Progress with one of these last week. These blades really are sharp and smooth and comparable to the Wilkinson Sword, Merkur and various Personna blades I've tried. I am pleased to report no cuts and my test blade lasted me a week / 6 shaves.
Author: D Southern I received these as a free gift and im surprised to say that they are excellent,and I have no problem in re-ordering when I need too, many thanks
Author: Richard Smith Sharp blades at an affordable price.
Author: Russ Excellent blades, i found these blades to be perfect for my skin compared to to other brands. I have found my perfect match:)
Author: Mark Woodcock I got these blades as a free gift and have found them to be very good. They compare well with the Merkur blades and are very sharp and comfortable to use.
Author: Kamran Farooq I can't believe these are being given away free with any purchase over 9.99. Excellent quality and as good if not better than the Merkur blades I also got. Would definitely but again.
Author: Jakob Elbęk Egegaard Pedersen I really wanted these blades to work out for me as they are very cheap and because Dan is kind enough to hand them out for free together with orders over a certain amount.
In a way they do work; I get the best and most comfortable shaves with these - compared to the other blades I have tried; Merkur Platinum, Derby Extra and Gillette Platinum (Swedes). The problem is just; I can only get one good shave out of them (compared to an average of three shaves from the Merkur's, Derby's and Gillette's), second shave with the Shaving Shack blades is awfull with dragging, pulling and lots of irritation.
I do not think these blades are bad, they just doesn't work for me - as I can not accept a blade that only lasts for one shave, a pity because in most other aspects they are perfect for me.
A frind of mine, who has a lighter beard, gets an average of three good shaves out of these blades and I imagine most people would get around the same amount as he does. But, if you have a heavy beard you are probably better off with another blade, like the Derby Extras for example.
Author: Paul Ryder Received my Merkur 38c and a pack of these - I thought Id start with the Merkur blade, and it didnt do a very good job at all !
So, 2nd shave.... Merkur blade in the bin, Israel cheapie installed and the difference is astounding.... still not mach3tastic, but its getting there and the bathroom doesnt look like I been making a horror movie, so its just a matter of time/technique I guess
Author: Graeme Couttie These look like exactly the same blades that Tesco sells with their own branded packaging. Great blades! Best of all get 30 free if you spend £9.99 or more. I get one less shave than I get from Derbys but thay are just as sharp and I get no irritation.
Author: S. Murphy The Shaving Shack blades are comparable to Wilkinson and Derby. I found Shaving Shack thanks to these blades. I was given 30 by an existing customer that didn't appreciate their quality.
If you can see through brand snobbery, these no-brand blades give a noble and crisp shaving experience. I get 3-4 shaves out of each. A clean cut feel without dragging.
Author: John Ikel Morrisons sell these as Personna blades for £1.95 for 10 as do Tesco. Shaving Shack are selling them cheaper and will even give them free if you spend over £9.99 which is a bargain. I've had about 2 double pass and 2 triple pass shaves out of ONE side of the blade (I have a goatee so only cheeks and neck) and am starting to get razor burn only now so would say for me I could get them to last at a blade a week which is fantastic when you consider the cost.
(I got this as part of the "Safety Razor Starter Kit (IS)" [CODE: SHWETSHAVEKITIS] as a 35th birthday gift from my parents - check it out, it's a bargain!)
Author: Kevin Holmes Superb Blade and have to agree with so many of the other comments the main being it is fantastic to see them free with purchases
I have quite a strong stubble and the blades have no problem easing through it, i am averaging about 4/5 full shaves with the blade with only the later starting to produce a slight burn.
Been very impressed with the blades and hold them in very high regard having previously stuck to Gillette Mach 3 for years, no turning back now
