Customer Reviews of 3 Pack Merkur Double Edge Razor Blades, Box of 10

Customer Review: Works well
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been using a Merkur double-edge razor for a couple months now, so I'm still pretty new to the whole razor blade thing. I haven't used any other blades that I can compare them with. What I can say is that these are sharp and seem to last for a nice number of shaves. The little plastic dispenser they come in has a slot on the back for safe blade disposal. At about $.50 a blade they are a lot cheaper than the cartridges at the store.

Finally; a source for double edge razor blades. These are very good razor blades for those of us who still rely on the "old" technology. What I use them in is a hair trimmer that I purchased several years ago. Use of this devise extends the time between visits to the barber and with the cost of a haircut these days the longer that time is the better. This provides me with a cheap haircut at a time when every penny saved is a bonus.

Customer Review: Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars

They don't feel as sharp as the Derby blades, and they're also a bit more expensive. However, I find that these balance sharpness with comfort extremely well. They also last longer (about 5 shaves) than other brands I've used. For my face, these are the best blades.

As a side note, the plastic container has a slot for used razors; small feature but nice to have when traveling.

Highly recommended.

Customer Review: Cheap, effective, but you can do better
Summary: 2 Stars

The blades are inexpensive, work well and they do last for a few shaves. They were the first ones I tried, and I actually have a Merkur razor so I thought they'd work well together. However, after trying the Derby Extra's, I have to say that those are much better blades. As always your mileage may vary. I would recommend getting less than a 3 pack and just giving them a try if you really want to test them out.

Customer Review: These blades were OK
Summary: 4 Stars

I'm starting to think some of the extremely positive and extremely negative reviews for double edge razor blades are just a result of brand loyalty. I've tried quite a few brands of DERBs and have found very little difference between them, even with relatively thick stubble. The truth is, at ~$0.10 a blade you can't really go wrong. These Merkurs worked fine but in my opinion were not worth their premium.
