5.0 out of 5 stars Occam's Merkur Razor, April 13, 2007
Do you find yourself forced to choose between buying decent razor blades or putting a down payment on a home? Isn't it interesting that big ticket items such as home computers and digital cameras continue to drop in price, making them available to everyone at a reasonable cost, while all the 'Shaving Systems' and attendant accoutrements continue to skyrocket into the stratosphere? Gillete's Mach 3 blades are sold on Amazon in packs of 8 ($17.99) and in packs of 12 ($28.99.) The Schick Quattro blades are also available, package of 8, for $21.99. Twenty to thirty bucks for a pack of razor blades? Have you people taken leave of your senses? I don't care how many new blades you add; the flashy colors and tacky gimmicks fail to impress me any longer. The Shaving Barons have ripped me off for long enough!

These blades offer a very comfortable shave for a fraction of the price. Making the switch to an old school double edged razor kit may seem prohibitively expensive at first, but in the long run you'll save a bundle. If you're up 15 to 20 bucks every time you buy new blades the switch will pay for itself in under a year, clearing up lots of extra cash for interesting stuff like books or CDs. The best choice seems pretty self-evident to this reviewer.

I would like to add that Merkur makes exceptionally fine razors as well as blades. If you are contemplating taking the plunge I recommend checking out their product line further.

5.0 out of 5 stars Using them for a year... will never go back!, November 18, 2007
I've been using a classic double edged razor (also made by Merkur) for about a year now; and I have to say that I'll never go back to "shaving systems." People have said that these blades are a mite unforgiving to beginners still learning to properly use a double edged razor, but I never had much of a problem. True, there is a small learning curve (how I wish the fathers of my generation had not been conned into the "multi-blade revolution" and had been able to teach us to shave properly). The rewards for taking the time to learn to shave properly are certainly worth the risks of a few stray nicks at first. Try them for a year in a well made razor and I'm sure you will never go back to bloated overpriced and not nearly as effective "shave scams"...er I mean systems.

4.0 out of 5 stars cheap, effective, will cut off your face, January 12, 2008
By Kevin B (St. Louis) - See all my reviews
These things are crazy cheap and crazy sharp, so you should only use these if you absolutely have your technique down. I didn't at first and cut the crap out of my face. But, now I've gotten used to them and only cut myself a couple times per shave. I wish I was joking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great inexpensive and effective blade
After having grown up using electric shavers, then finally moving over to the "modern" razors in an attempt to get a closer shave, my shave was still horrible. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Not sharp enough
This blade is not sharp enough for my beard, especially on the reverse pull, it sticks and rips the roots. I will try the Derby and if that does not work then Feather.

1.0 out of 5 stars Go with Feather or Derby
Way too expensive, bad QC, not the sharpest. At a $2.00 they'd be good, at the prices Merkur charges, its highway robbery!
