It's long been suspected that Bluebirds are made at the Derby factory, and maybe simply Derby's in different packaging.gil3591 wrote:ok, never mind. i just tried one and i'm not impressed. kinda like a derby but my face doesn't feel all that great!

Listen to my bluebird laugh; she can't tell you why
Well, at long last I have tried a Bluebird.
The packaging does look like that of Derby blades. Its content is much different to my skin.
Derby's product was uniformly harsh for me. After using two blades, I corked each remaining one and used it once; into the old broth can with them. I was disappointed because they are so much regarded as a good mid-range shiv.
My first Bluebird has given me 2 DFS on consecutive days. Let's see what it has left in it when I start #3 in a little while.
Satisfyingly smooth! And sharp? I was impressed. In fact, I almost got nicked but stopped myself in time; so they are more forgiving than our usual scalpels are. I look forward to seeing if the other 4 blades in the pack are of the same quality. I never heard anything about the Bluebird QC so I figure it's good. Hope so. It's nice to know there are alternatives that work for me.
