Which is THE BEST DE BLADE?
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.พ. 2025
- Many have doubts about the best blades available on the market and as many videos on this regard. So here I wanted to go through many I have already used.
First of all: - Test as many slides as possible. See the one that is most comfortable for you and best for your face. There is no single blade that is best for everyone. You need to understand that the type of shaver, soap, brush, as well as the type of beard and skin influence. Including the beard routines or even the pressure and strength that is used when shaving. In addition, each shaver also has a different angle and aggressiveness.
I hope I have helped.

----- About the channel
I'm André. My main channel is actually in Portuguese, called Barba Tradicional. But since I do create some content in English sometimes I decided to upload that also here.
Many people have sensitive skin and/or suffer from ingrown hairs, irritation or have difficulty shaving difficult areas. Since 2017 I have retired the multi-blade cartridge and electric shavers, switching to traditional shaving. The results are astounding! Of course, it requires learning some tricks and tricks, after all it's easier to cut yourself (it's more efficient!). But it's worth a try! Here I help answer some questions and how to have a barbershop-worthy shave: How to shave? How to avoid irritation and ingrown hair? What is the best shaver? How to shave with a razor? How to choose the shaver? What care and attention when shaving?
I hope that with the tips on this channel you will have a shave without irritation or ingrown hairs. Above all it is a cheaper and more sustainable way to shave!

My current favorite is the BIC blade, which is often overlooked. It is as sharp as the Feather, but smoother and more durable.
The bic surprised me. Had practically no stinginess when I used my alum block and no irritation at all.
Just bought some Bics. Look forward to trying then.
It's best @@BillyBanter100
@@BillyBanter100report back on Bic 😅
Great video. I bought a large sample pack and ended up using SHARK super chrome blades with my Rockwell 6S. I thought my choice would be Feather or Astra after watching safety razor vids but Shark worked the best for me and my setup / technique.
Dorco ST300 Platinum is my favorite. Feather is crazy sharp, Derby was the blade I used to learn on as it was mild. Astra Superior Platinum I use when I run out of Dorco.
Never tried that Dorcos, I will try to get some. Apart from that, I totally agree with your ratings. I have become fond of Astras now. I like them a lot!
Bic Chrome Platinum in an old 70s Gillette 3 pc here . Gillette Silver Blue is my second choice . We have opposite faces , my friend :) Ill try one toward the right on your display . Its rare and years since Ive tried anything new to me . Ill give the Personna a whirl
Thanks for an interesting review, I'm new to DE Safety shaving and have just bought myself a trial pack of blades to try; so far my favourite is the Wilkinson Sword!
Great video i personally have been using Astra for over 15 years and never had a reason to change, perfectly smooth shave and extremely sharp.
Hey bro, tks for watching and feedback. I am recently enjoying Astras much better. Great blade. I guess my technique improved. See you next time!
Here comes another Astra gang member 😎
I am with you on this especially the green ones. never seen/used any other variation
one thing for sure matters that is pressure and razor for most part whatever i use with green astras become better
I will try to experement as I grew a beard for most of couple of years and that affected my technique and I am paying more attention to pressure now as I am shaving my whole beard and when you shave a whole beard you can tell of any issues
Several months into wet shaving, I decided to try a sample pack of blades based on what I had learned from various shaving channels. To eliminate one variable, I only shaved with my favorite DE safety razor, the Rockwell 6S. After trying all the blades, my favorites narrowed down to Nacet, Astra Green, and Wilkinson Sword (India). IMO, what makes one razor blade "better" than another is skin and hair type, assuming we all do proper prep and use quality products. I do agree that there is no such thing as a "best" blade. Some just perform better than others.
Thank you for sharing that, buddy! I do believe it's the best way... get a sample pack and see how it goes with your face, hair and razors. Cheers
so interesting how varying everyones usage is with certain blades. my absolute favorite blade i never even see on peoples list. parker premium platinum is my go to razor blade. it gives me the closest yet most comfortable shave ever. feather is a tad harsh for me, still use them but definitely more harsh. parker is so incredibly smooth and just delivers a fantastic shave every time.
in fact, tonight when i shaved with my parker blade it was such a good shave i just stopped after two passes, didnt even need a third. my goodness its a marvelous razor blade i absolutely love it. very reasonably priced as well i think $12 for 100?
great video :)
Hey buddy, thanks for watching. Yeah it is nice to see how the opinions differ and how blades work for each one. Glad you liked it. In fact this video has been recorded on Nov/2020 so that was the set back then. I have tested the Parker blades this year and I must agree with you. It sits on the sweet spot of sharpness and comfort. There are tens of new blades I have tested so I gotta update this video. Stay tuned! Cheers
I also like the Parker, I switch between Parker and Wilkinson Sword premium Germany. Parker is smooth and no cuts ever. But the Wilkinson gets me a few more shaves per blade
so many blade, did not know of the parker blades, regards dapper shaves
@@thebrazilianshaver That would be wonderful if you could, Andrew
I might even suggest linking a google sheet for ranking and any notes with the video description. it really does help
I will search those parker blades
Many thanks for a very interesting survey of a wide range of blades. I have tried a few but not all on your list. I will look out for some of your favourites and see how they work for me.
Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think of the blades you try! Cheers
Astra and perma sharp was turkish companies before they were bought by gillette usa. Their qualities were very good.
My favorites are Feather, Rapira Platinum Lux, and Perma-Sharp. Two that I’ve never tried which I would like to try are Kai and Polsilver/Wizamet Iridium
I have 100 counterfeit Polsilvers that I would be glad to sell you, 50% off what I paid LOL
I love the Silver Blue blades. They work great for me in my Muhle DE, and in my Parker straight razor. Different blades work better or worse for different people, and they way they match up with the razor also has an effect.
Absolutely! It's been a while I haven't tried the Silver Blue ones. I've given Astra a new go and loved them.
@@thebrazilianshaver I tried Astra and I didn't care for it. The place where I buy my stuff offered me some free blades so I took them up on their offer and that is what they gave me.
In barbershops they use only one blades per person , and most of the times all blades are doing well for one use , but personal use , we are looking for number of usage , the longer stays sharp the better it saves , then there is personal preferences.
Great discussion on best blades. Like you said I find blades are the most YMMV part of shaving. My favorite blades are Wizamet Iridium (very similar to Polsilver), Nacet, Rapira Lux, Dorco Prime and Gillette Winner Platinum (India), there many other "also ran" blades that shave well and bottom of my list are Rockwell, Merkur, Parker, German&Chinese Wilks and Perma-Sharp (surprise?)...👍🤠
Thanks for sharing! Yeah, blades are no exact science hehe everyone has a different opinion, I mean, everyone has body/ hair differences
Been wet shaving for decades...Here's my opinion. If you use a closed comb razor, Permasharp, Bolzano, Astra SP are great. If you use an OC razor,a cheap mild blade like Dorco's, Derby and etc work just fine. Feather's or a Kai are expensive and very sharp. One wrong move and your cut. I only recommend them if your experienced. Also be careful going against the grain on your neck since that may cause razor burn, irritation and blemishes.
What a great Video. Thanks Andre, I enjoyed this one and it's a good idea. I'll be using my notebook and making more of my own notes 😁 Cheers.
Hey Mark, great to see you here! Thanks for watching. Yes, I had a bid database where I logged all my shaves for maybe 2 years. I could then go back and see what always worked, and what not quite. See you next time mate. Cheers
Yes. That is the way to do it. One can use so many different blade samples and after a while, can not remember exactly how each blade was.
@@thebrazilianshaver that's smart! i love it. I am an avid excel user and sure would be fun and informative
My favourites are Kai, Feather, Personna, Voskhod I haven’t tried the others yet as I’m still going through a sample pack. Another great one in the sample pack is rimei a bit rough on first use but super smooth and a super bbs from 2nd onwards
kai , feather and personna are fantastic with the latter slightly less smooth than the others, at least for me.
Amazing ones!
Personnas made in Israel and Germany are magical to me!
Good video: Astra's are excellent with the right technique, and so are Wilkinson Sword India & China (surprisingly). The Astra's are really consistent (at least 3 shaves). The Wilki's can sometimes drag, but just adjust technique. Kensurf's likes them, and they are excellent alright. The only blades I really don't like are Feather...not smooth, and too pricey. You are right though...their really are no true winners...it's all about technique.
great video, i hope people watch this and understand that blades that feel good for you may not feel good to someone else, i love gillette wilkinson sword and feather blades which are lower down on your scale
Astra SP is a very good. The Toyota Corolla of blades. BTW how are the Super Thins?
feather all the way
Good blade! Not my favorite though
Bic chrome platinum DE blades ( Made in Greece) are my favourite because they're super sharp.
They are good for sensitive skin because you can remove hair using less passes.
I haven't had a closer shave with any other blade. They're also very affordable.
I've shared those blades with other DE shavers in my social circle and all agree that bic are awesome blades.
My second favourite blades would be Wilkinson sword blades (Indian made).
They are more forgiving when starting out and learning to shave with a DE blade.
I disagree it's bad, Perma Sharp is better!
@@JamesF.Goldstein they cost twice as much to buy and get shipped to where I live in Australia. I might buy a sample pack that includes them. What do you like about them?
Interesting! I wouldn't expect to see SBs in bottom tier, I find them quite similar in performance to Platinums though I slightly prefer Platinums - particularly the "Swede" ones. Also interesting the Astras are so low, I find Astras Superior Platinums similar to Voskhods which are some of my absolute favorites as well. I miss PolSilvers, but I can still get Wizamets.
The Razor is also is a factor
The new Perosonna Platinums are made in Germany now
Correct! Those are still the ones made in Israel. But I do have the German ones and they are very good!
Brother, gillette platinums, perma sharp, wizamet, and feather are magical when I shave
Cool.. many people talk about wizamet, but I have not tried yet. I am curious! Amazing lineup you mentioned!
Great video, and your English is very good !!
Thanks buddy! Appreciate you watching as well.
So many things come into play here for a mans face skin type hair type ect...could be the shaver if you have a adjustable Gillette ect.. find what # is best for your face Cant really say what is a bad razor blade or what is best one it is all about the shaving face control. also the pressure on your face can make a bad shave or a great shaving experience . find what works for your face on the # you got your shaver on ect. to many factors to say what is a bad or what is a good razor blade. To many people shave and want to be done in 1 min a Wet shave should be done with grace and no time limit and you should have a fantastic BBS No mater what Razor you use . TAKE YOUR TIME It is a man's moment between you and your face . Enjoy your Wet shaving moment. 💈
Very well said buddy! I completely agree! I really enjoy shaving and give me some time. Thanks for watching
hi man. thank you for the video so informative
i am suprised you don't like the green astras. it might be a factor if as you mentiond they aren't as sharp as others but to my skin are gentler
you brought my attention to Gillette Nacets I haven't used for a bit and I have them. i will try to play with them soon
so you absolute favourites are on the far right
how much do they cost at your place? I haven't seen any of the ones on the far right and wonder if they don't come to the side of the world where I am
Hey man... thanks for watching. That video needs a retake. It was years ago. Now my technique changed and now it turns out I really like Astras!!
I bought those blades off of ebay or amazon. Where do you live?
@@thebrazilianshaver Hi would be nice to know
Saudi Arabia. I love Astra but I think I am liking Gillette Nacet and Feathers more. Maybe it is due to using Merkur Slant bar
Dorco aren't as sharp but hopefully will try to pair them with Muhle R41
would be a highly regarded video if you could make a video and in description list the sharpness in order
if there are other good things I would ask friends to bring them over
haven't had such good shaves for a really long time; so comfortable and close
cheers
Permasharp, gilette platinum, and astra sp (green) for me. it's because they are the cheapest (under 10 cents per blade) yet relatively the sharpest.
Agreed! To me the best blade should be a combination of effectiveness, comfort, affordability, accessibility... those fit perfectly on that criteria
I bought a sample pack on eBay, out of the pack like the Voskhod DESR and Bic Chrome Platinum DESR.
feather, nacet, gillette 7 o'clock black , voskhod , gillette silver blue, personna lab blue. These are best to many people.
Great choices!
Great video! Thank you!
Thanks for watching! 🤟🏻💈
So true. For me I like to try many blades and find my top 3 or 4 and then I bounce around with these 4 but then I buy a new razor and try all again. I like the verity. I don’t like feather. To sharp. Leave my skin so dry and irritated.
how do you dispose of these?
I did one video on my main channel in Porgutuese, but good idea to do it here too. You can keep on a small tin or jar. When it is full you can tape it closed and recycle, make sure you mark it as "blade" or give some sort of marking of caution. Make sure it is well sealed not to harm anyone. At least many countries accept them for recycling.
I have heard good things about the feathers. My shop provides us with them.....tbh they aren't that great. I feel like they dull out mid shave
I find them nice, but too hard. Not the most comfortable shave
Think no1 for sure is feather no2 is gillete platinum no.3 astra platinum in term of sharpness
Thanks for watching!
Looking at all of the boxes and you have to wonder what the most recent packaging design was. 2001?
I guess it is because many customers of this stuff enjoy the old style. If you See the box you know what is Inside no need for major Upgrades.
Thanks for the video!
I don't know, they all do the same job, basically. That's been my experience, and I've been using a Double Edge safety Razor since 1982. Some blades last longer, some are thinner, some are more expensive, but I find that prepping your stubble and practicing your technique are far more important than the blade itself. The blades I have been using in recent times are the Japanese made Feather Brand stainless and the Gillette Platinum Blades. They seem to work well with my light stubble and couple nicely with any number of my safety razors. They are easy to source and are cost effective. The Feathers might cost a little more, but way less than the modern style shavers of today, which are sub-par at best. Since no one's face and beard is the same, and if you're just starting out, get a few easily available sample packs and see what works for you. Happy Shaving!!

Perfect saying buddy! I have been shaving with those blades for nearly 7 years now and I can navigate well with technique, pairing a nice razor with the blade and all, but I do feel they are all a bit different. Thanks for watching!
The Bolzano Superinox blades are my personal favorite very underrated
Great blade indeed. I had amazing shaves with it
Do you know by any chance de blade with no wax on it and if you please tell couple of options ⁉️
Personna Platinum (German, Blue Pkg, Plastic Tuck), use no wax. My no.1 performing blade. I love them!
I have a Rex Konsul and the Wilkinson Sword is the best in that I've found. Closely followed by Permasharp, Personna, Accuforge and Rockwell. The Kai and Feather are a bit too sharp; I can get nicks and cuts even with the Konsul dialed all the way down. The Astra is a little dull, not bad but not the greatest; It's probably a great blade for a Yates Razor. The Bolzano is very dull; barely sufficient to shave. Maybe good for shaving arm hair over a tattoo or something. The Kent of Inglewood (their in-house blade) and Parker's are the worst I ever tried; I've actually taken them out after a few shave strokes because they were just so dull. I somehow managed to get an ingrown hair with the Parker.
my no 1 is polsilver super Iridium (no longer in production) en my 2nd favorite is Nacet
You can probably still find them available for sale. . . . . Or maybe not. I just did a check onto tryablade and razorbladesclub, and neither are showing the PolSilver to be available.
Great blades as well!! I actually bought a 100 pack of Polsilvers as soon as I knew they would stop making them :)
I bought over on e-bay some years back. I guess there are still some out there
Astra all the way due to cost and the stainless steel
They have recently been a game changer for me. I used to hate them... now they are great to me!
@@thebrazilianshaver make sure u get the one with black lettering on the package, they be some bogus knock offs lately
Astra gives me wicked razor burn. Not sure if I just got a dull batch or knock offs but I wish I could like them.
Hi i would you like to order a Stirling soap to be shipped to Brasil from US do you think they would charge me in customs? Also how is sandalwood Viking shave cream? I’m not Brazilian 😊thanks
Hey buddy, thanks for watching. So I understand you are living in Brazil? Cool! Which city? Technically there is no import fee for orders under 100usd or 50usd depending on the product (I guess that combines good cost + shipping cost). But in short it is a lottery :) You mean the Brazilian brand Viking? I do have a review of that on my main channel in Portuguese th-cam.com/video/fCgOeJI1Dx4/w-d-xo.html but in short, I did not like how it lathers... it doesn't lather actually. There are better options in my opinion than this even the cheap supermarket ones like Bozzano. I also recently made one video on Jelly Roll Grease... they also have a sandalwood cream. th-cam.com/video/Jn4rZ-BqCu4/w-d-xo.html
@@thebrazilianshaver hi yes I live in São Paulo 😊thanks for advice, I saw the other video, probably I’ll order Stirling from US or Michael wool fat on eBay as I have a very sensitive skin and I shave every day because the hair grow quickly, I tried bozzano refreshing shave cream last week it’s ok also Nivea cream, it’s wired I used Nivea cream in Australia and it was more dense than the one I bought here in Brazil and lather quickly, just needed a small amount to use
Oh, that's easy. Feather blades, of course.
Loved by many! :)
Feather and Wilkinson Sword for me its the best!
Thanks for watching! 🤟🏻💈
The best blade price quality ratio I ever used are Derby and Personna.
What razor are u comparing these blades in
That was multiple uses in multiple razors. Merkur 34C, Fatboy, Rockwell T2 were my most used of alltimes. But There were many uses with the Rockwell 6C, Parker Variant, Semi Slant...
Personna Platinum for me.
Love that one too!
My blade list for sensitive skin:
Sharpest[not for beginners]: feather, astra green, wilkinson sword classic,kai, polsilver is now wizamet super irridium blades, gilette green
Mild sharpness [feel comfort shave]: Perma Sharp, BIC, Gilette Platium[soft],Astra Blue,Gilette Black
Lowest sharpness[not many shaves]: derby,dorco,lord,shark,treet,elios,voskod,rapira,sputnik,shaverboy,gilette 7oclock yellow,gilette nacet,minora,bolzano,muhle,personna[sharp].
YMMV.
thank you for posting. i haven't tried all of them but always thought Nacets are sharper than Astras or maybe i was wrong and that's why i stay away from them as when i shave with a shavette normally i feel the shave is harsh
Can’t go wrong with feather!
True! Thanks for watching!
my unpopular opinion is that blades in razors are like batteries in remotes. it doesn’t matter unless they’re flat/blunt. it’s the razor & the shavers technique that make up most of the shaves performance. your father, grandfather, great grandfather etc. all shaved with whatever blade they could get their hands on. they didn’t have the luxury of ordering 30 brands world wide for optimal performance in their $200 titanium razor. don’t be a drama queen. just perfect your technique. that’s what’s most important
Technique is huge, but I had to find the right combo for me to at least not get razor burn. Decades ago, maybe I would've just had to suffer.
That is an unpopular opinion definitely. This is kind of a boomer mindset though, there are different blade sharpnesses, coatings, etc. that are scientifically measurable and have been measured. That means that yes, blades are different, and different blades are suitable for different men. For example, men with thick and coarse beards need something that is sharp and durable. Men with light or sparse beards can get away with duller blades they benefit from using to lessen the chances of nicks and irritation. Technique is indeed king, but your argument is provably wrong.
I used to think the same when I was starting out. But I think the blade is one of the most Important factors in getting a great shave. Dorco, kai, wilkinson swords, derby, all guilletes except the made in usa personnas. If I use any of those it feels like I'm scrapping my skin, irritation is horrible and I cut myself no matter how careful I am. I get excellent shaves with feather, guillete personnas made in usa and astras.
I agree, also focus, indulgence and good preparation and training helps. I used a razor in the beginning and messed Up completly: cuts and burning skin. Recently, I tried it again with the same setup and no issues at all. However, there is hardware which is little more forgiving and why not use it if it is easy to access? I like BIC and personna as they are easy to access here and I have some sympathy for the countries, but other stuff is fine, too.
Unpopular for sure, and is totally against my experience. I used a single edge (cut thrø@T) for several years which in my experience requires more skill than a double edge. With both types of razors the quality and the sharpness of the blade makes a huge difference.
I agree with you I dont like Wilkinson Sword Blades! for Me.
Thanks for watching!
My favourites here - Nacet, Gillette 7 o'clock, Treet, Ladas, Gillette Super Thin. I'm surprised you didn't have any Lords hahaha.
Oh you do haha.
The thing is... that video is over a year old. The second video on my main channel, the first in English.. so I published here again.
I gotta revisit them all!
I love the Gillette 7 O'clock Yellows! They are in my top 2!
Feather no doubt
Hello sir u have a new follower as I really am impressed with the first thing u said and that is they is no best blade as it is subjective where as all these manufacturers aim to sell and more sales is a better outcome
The ingrown hair section I know that is false as shaving does and can not 100% leave ingrown hairs. #science
Salve Giorgio! Thanks for subscribing! Hope you like the channel and glad yo uliked the video. Moving from cartridge to DE has drasticly changed my shaving game. I used to have ingrown hairs every single time, my neck burned every day. IMO, a good technique and a good DE blade will minimize that. Tks
These are my Top 11 blades. REX Ambassador is my razor.

In these Inflationary Times. HERE IS AN EASY WAY TO DO IT MY FRIENDs Use any hard Bar Soap, Tallow or Glycerin based Soaps out there? To fit in any Mugs or Cups? Like" (Mitchells' Wool Fat or Arko Sticks. Just to name a few of them?) You can mix and match your old Soaps? Cut up the soap on a paper plate, pour your soap chunks with the shavings from the Paper Plate into a Mug, cover the soap with a small amount of water, and microwave your soap. For about a minute or so? Place a paper plate under your mug in case it bubbles out of your cup? If it foams up, STOP. The water keeps it from burning itself up. (DON'T OVER WATER YOUR SOAP??) Easy, does it? Let cool don't want to Crack the Mugs or Cups you're using? (You just want it to Congeal in your Mug or Cup') it is very hot and watery'''''. let it cool in . PLACE'. after it cools, put it in a Sunny Window, until the Soap hardens? When using your soaps, use Dry Brush Less Water. It thickens the soap, making it easier to use on your face. Save your Money, spend it on your wife, don't listen to the shave Mafia. It saves me time and Money. Happy New Year. Your Mileage may vary? Wheelchair Larry
What Do You Think of The Sputnik Blades are They Thick Blades 😶🌫️😊
They are soft blades, not as thick as Rubie. In Soviet times, it was "Neva" plant in Leningrad (St.Petersburg), made blades with the same name. In early 2000s, Gillette bought that factory and modernized it with their machinery equipment. So Rubie and Sputnik are same for me.
Treet platinum ❤❤❤
Good choices!
try derby black wheelchair larry
Hey! Just did a video about the black derby (premium) and the green (extra). Have you watched it already?
Feather and Nacet!
Great pick!
astra is thinner than feather, so far my favorite is muhle
Muhle are also really good!
Im still a member of the Astra Platinum gang 😎
Yeah... I'm starting to like them
Great Video Although you forgot the best blades of all.
and you should know better than most.
The Wonderful Brazilian Wilkinson Sword
Treet platinum is amazing,
I like it a lot!
Start with the murkur 34c razor first
That was my first razor indeed!
My favorites here are Rapira, Lord Platinum, and Voskhod. I've never heard of Strike Max Hi Chromium blades.
Great choices as well buddy!
Permasharp my fav
Great stuff indeed!
Feather best i have tried, derby extra worst, leaves stubble even after 3 passes
Feather can be a little too harsh to me but trully a great blade.
Onlain odar karanna kohomada.
Yala aw bɛ blade ɲini minnu bɛ se ka ci aw ka dugu la wa?
wizamet super iridium, gillette 7oclocks, Nacet, feathers
Is the Wizamet super iridium any similar to the Polsilver Super Iridium??? Apart from that that I don't know you have a great set as well!
@@thebrazilianshaver to be honest I only have experience with the wizamet, that said those who use both find them indentical or very similar. sharp but smooth… regattas dapper shaves
* Polsilver also, thanks for those blades 😍
Glad you liked them
@@thebrazilianshaver quality blade 😍
Damn it's really crazy how different people have different experiences with different blades, isn't it? for me Treets and Nacets were horrid!
Hey buddy. Thanks for watching. Interesting indeed. That's why I like to test as many blades as I can.
The worst you should not try feathers when you’re a rookie in double edged shaving
True!
Derby Astra for bignners
Ladas were a nightmare for me. Sides were unevenly sharpened.
Yes, probably that was manufacturing defect. Funny thing - one time, I shaved with "Rapira Classic" blades (in striped pack, by the same manufacturer Mostochlegmash, cheapest model in their model line, 10 blades in a pack per 10c), and one of blades had deepenings on both edges and a deep scrape on blade plate. But I noticed it after shaving !
I prefer the GINSU 9000.
As seen on TV!
Отличное видео, но я не увидел в тесте лезвия НЕВА...Нева- это хардкор!
I have never tried that blade. Seems interesting. Thanks for watching
О, у меня припасена одна советская "Нева" в синей пачке с корабликом. Почему-то само лезвие коричневое. Будет больше опыта - попытаюсь затестить, сравнить с нынешней невой-жилеттом.
👍💈💈
Hey Ken! Nice to see you here! You've been an inspiration and you taught me a lot about how to shave. I remember sending you some SuperMax + blades for testing. Take care. Cheers
derby blue is shit but green i find good to shave with get smooth shave after 3 pass
Written in Thai 🇹🇭
Yeah, though I think they are made in China. Once I sent the image to Google translate
@@thebrazilianshaver interesting :)
YMMV
Everyone has a different take, for sure! Thanks for watching!
true that, regards dapper shaves
"There is no best blade."*
*Except Nacet, the best blade
Kidding aside, some blades are terrible in one razor and amazing in another. Personna Platinum didn't work well at all for me in one razor, but it was the best blade I ever tried in a different razor. Nacet is the one blade I've tried that works well in every razor. Do you have one blade that works in everything?
hahaha yeah I got that feeling too! I would say to me as of now I could have excellent shaves consistently with Voskhod, Permasharp, Parker and Personna Platinum in almost all my razors!
wizamet super iridium works great in all razors, at least for me. regards dapper shaves
There exist other than feather...
Absolutely
My favorite so far are Voskhod. The Feathers are too sharp. I hated the Wilkinson swords. They are awful.
They are soft and thin, in my opinion - it's like Rubie or Sputnik, but less qualified and very cheap.
Treet is best
🤟🏻💈
You actually say absolutely nothing . Every blade is good and bad !
Well... I can share what they feel to me. Here are my preferences
I really gave a thought about differences in blades, ive been shaving DE for about 8 years and just now gotten into more info about it xD always bought suoermax for my savety razor(vintage adjustable gillete) and halfblades from derby in a verry cheap "shavettes". About a week ago bought a original dovo shavette and today a 5 pack astra.
... The irony that for 99.99999% of users, they would get an infinitely better shaving experience and end result with a multiple blade cartridge razor than they would with literally any of these products... I understand that it's a fun kind of hobby or whatever but unless you've had a lot of practice with one of the style of razors and you really do a lot of prep work to your skin ahead of time you're gonna have an awful experience with a lot of irritation and probably not a very good shave without a bunch of nicks and cuts.... If you're not smart enough to figure out how to get cartridge razors from Walmart for like a dollar for a pack, I really don't know what to tell you🤣
Not true at all lol
multi blades only provide me irritation and ingrowing hairs. And why to pay 1 dollar for a pack when you can get them for a few cents?
anyways, your shave, your rules. Thanks fo watching!
agree!
@@thebrazilianshaver .... in my entire life as a man I have never heard of one person ever with a straight face complain about the quality of the shave that a five bladed Gillette super glide cartridge razor provides them... if you can't get a baby butt butter, smooth shave with a razor like that then I highly doubt that you're going to be technically proficient and skilled enough to do so with a straight razor or a double blade and safety razor.... if you're not skilled enough or pay attention to detail enough to get a smooth, clean shave with a high-end cartridge razor I would very very very very much not recommend that you try something with a much steeper learning curve and a much thinner margin for error
I think you are trying to be controversial, just to atract people to your channel..
Nothing DEFINITIVE IN YOU VIDEO. Nothing. Can I have my time I waste listening to this ( bla bla bla) back!?
Hey man, thanks for watching and for the feedback. Why you say that exactly? I just went through a bunch of blades and said which I like and don't like. Didn't get the controversy part. Maybe you agree with me and other fellow shavers... every blade behaves differently with each person. Some love, others hate.... some gets irritation and some get the best shave out of a blade. Hope you like future content.
@@thebrazilianshaver bro dont worry about him. You did a good job. He clearly has no idea what he is talking about. Even his username is "socrate disciple's" instead of "socrate's disciple"
Wilkionsword works for me so I don't feel the need to try anything else.
Awesome dude... if you find your favorite or one that works well with you... stick to it! Thanks for watching!
