    Just finishing my DE blade starter pack and not sure what DE blades to get?

    I find feathers a bit unforgiving. I like the Personna blades with the starter pack. I looking for something that is less sharp than feathers but more durable and good for multiple shaves? Any recommendations?

    The Polsilver Super Iridium's are very good blades but I'm finding the Rapira platinum Lux cheaper and just as good.
    YMMV though.

    What about Personna Platinum chrome?
    I like them and they are cheaper.

    I find that Personna Med Preps and Polsilver Super Iridiums are both very good.

    Feathers direct from Singapore in bulk.
    Personna meds from Connaught Shaving.

    Above are my most frequent purchases. Persona meds/labs I find a notch below feathers but more forgiving.

    Also have several shoeboxes of blades in reserve that I accumulated over the years.

    I've bought about 400 blades so far. That's about 7 years worth shaving. I'll buy more though. There so freakin cheap. :)

    Apols for confusing late night post, I meant direct geographically as opposed to direct from Feather.

    Here's a link to reseller
    http://www.doubleedgeshavingplace.com/product/feather-double-edge-razor-blades-100-blades

    BB101 gives an 8% off.

    Better pricing if you buy 200 but risk of customs charges higher.
