Review on Ultimate Quality Double Edge Razor Blade Sampler - Astra, Derby, Shark, Voskhod, Bolzano, Treet, and More! by Rebecca Carter

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good sampler, best for people with softer beards

The main thing I didn't like about this pack is that most of the blades aren't quite sharp. On the other hand, it contains some very good woods like Voskhod, Astra and Bolzano. I will provide a brief description of each blade below. Bolzano: Very smooth and somewhat sharp, slightly better than stainless steel Astra SPAstra: Less smooth than Astra SP, but also sharper. Sunrise: Superb Blade. Both sharp and very smooth. Has given me the best shave ever. This is my favorite blade of the set, but it's also the sharpest so technique is important. Wood Hawk: Rough edge, not very sharp, not smooth. A passage left scratches all over my beard. Terrible blade in my opinion. Shark Super Chrome: Pretty sleek but not sharp. Suitable for those who have soft and/or sparse beard hair. Derby Variations: Fairly smooth but least sharp, perhaps suitable for people with very thin and soft beard hair. Discarded blades can be stored in a plastic box. Astra SP: a classic and staple for many. They're not sharp enough for me personally, but they have nice smooth blades that stay sharp even after multiple shaves.
