Thanks - good to have more than one source for things. (though I don't need a source for a while - I think I have close to 2000 blades in my cupboard.)

Snicker.... I have abt 3500 DE's and 800 Atra's. I think I'll have to put them in my will!

Does anyone have any experience in shaving with these blades? I recently won a Gillette Diplomat Razor as well as 10 Blue Blades. Any insite as what I can expect will be greatly appreciated.. Thanks.

Je n'ai pas besoin de cette hypothèse.

Hi Chris, I'm curious... What are the assumptions that you have no need of making?

My French is a little rusty but I think that's what it says....

Pauldog here has them at much better prices than that. I think he is around $28 per 100.

The Trac II came out in 1971 I believe. It was the first double blade razor. The two blade concept was based on a concept they called hysteresis. The idea was the hair that was being cut would be pulled somewhat out by the first blade and then be cut again by the second blade before it had time to f...

Hi Tom, I can relate. Just recently some poster was selling some nice razors and brushes. see http://badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php?t=47958 I was really interested in one of the razors (a very nice Slim). Canada Only.... So I guess it works both ways. :( Regards, Rod You can't imagine how ofte...

Hi Jeff, Sorry it didn't work out for you. My experience was much the same as yours and hence the reason I sold them. I got razor burn. I didn't want to try selling the puck I used so next I'm going to try Superlathering with it and a cream I won't use by itself. Anyway, happy birthday man! Hope it'...

I'm a little Clubman gunshy after buying a bottle of Lilac Vegetal. I didn't realize that vegetal meant rotting vegetables mixed with cat whiz.

Well Gordon, then with you and Squire in agreement, I am in good company! Part of the downside to being a noob is not having all the history of all the water that's gone under the bridge. If this has been discussed at length already, please pardon!

The way I see it is use the learner blades to get technique down, (Derby, Crystal, et al) and once technique is learned use the top shelf blades. I've been thinking about this lately and I think you may be spot on. I'm not sure the traditional advice about jumping right in to a sampler pack is the ...

... A wonderfully crafted item of any kind is cause for notice, as is its passing. Dave +1 Isn't that why so many of us seek to own vintage razors?? I think that's exactly it. There is a level of craftmanship there that doesn't exist in todays "injection molded" world. I'm sure that appre...

+1 for Mr. Spacely

Scott is a good guy to do business with!

I suspect it really is NOS. That package looks unopened to me. I think the lack of color appearing on the numerals is probably just a bad photo. For the money he wan't though, I would think he would take better pictures. Not a very good marketer!
