These are individually wrapped, nicely stacked in the box shipping was fairly quick. I was not charged s&h for the product so I have no complaints there. Don't be confused by the picture, you are getting a single box of #10 blades 100 count.

I use these in a human dissection lab. They are just fine. Not as good as B-P, but not much worse. For the price, these can't be beat.

Now that more people are learning Dermaplaning dermabrasion the price of these has skyrocketed to very stupid prices. This box, however, gives you the same blade for a penny that others charge $1 for. And, at the time I bought mine the seller was offering free shipping and as I was not charged shipping or tax, that made the bargain even better.

I should back up a bit and explain my use of a scalpel on the net if none of that made sense. I was fortunate enough to take a professional course on dermaplaning which is the newest form of microdermabrasion...I would never have done microdermabrasion as it just tears off the top layer of your skin and you look like you've been mauled for days--yes the end result is no breakouts and less lines but I just couldn't do that. To make a long story short, I fell into a dermaplaning class with a professional friend. This removes about 3-4 weeks of dead skin in a few minutes, as well as all fine hairs on the face, and the reason we age is that our skin no longer renews itself as it did in our youth--so age spots, acne scars, and lines stay there. This does the job our bodies stopped doing for us and is basically like shaving, with a few changes but no less safe.

It is always done with a #10 blade in a handle, moved in ONE direction (loads of people not trained well or "trained" via youtube, go back and forth...bad for your skin.) BUT it must be an individually wrapped blade for sterile reasons and it needs to be very sharp, which I was told this brand was.

I have had great results with it. The shape is perfect for dermaplaning without cutting, it's sharp enough that there are no nicks or issues...and it works well.

The picture is a little misleading as it's one small box with only one kind of blade in it, #10, even though the pic on the box shows all types of blades-- but the price truly cannot be beat. I actually saw a dermaplaning site selling the same box of blades for a few HUNDRED dollars. Because one dermaplaning session can cost over $100 I suppose people who think they can do it themselves figure it's a bargain but that's just laughable. I think they may have even had #14 blades with it, which are not what professionals actually use.

I only use this on myself and only after proper training but the results are nothing short of astonishing so for those who have been trained and are looking for blades for that purpose (other than dermplaning and art projects, I can't imagine why else they'd be bought on the net? Maybe med school? Otherwise I figure the hospital is purchasing them for docs! **Shudder**)
