I bought a safety razor a couple months ago and I’ve been using some blades that came with it, I don’t even think they have a brand, it looks like it’s just some Chinese manufactured stuff without name and they are okay, but I think I could get something a little bit better. Has any of you tried the Feather brand? I think they’re Japanese or somethign.
I’m also using Astra SP blades, they work great for me. Not the nicest shave I’ve ever had but for the price they are fantastic.
Whatever you get, be aware that it’ll take a few shaves for your skin to adjust to a new blade. Those first few shaves will probably suck, it isn’t necessarily indicative of the blade.
