Thread: New DE

Ok folks I have been registered here for some time now and really just liked to read about the different straights.

I then did a lot of research and kinda got bored with the idea to be honest so I didn't come back to any of the forums for a while.

I received a email from one of the mods. here asking me back to visit. Since then I have got the bug again?

So on fathers day my wife bought me me my first razor, it is a Merkur Fidour. I have been shaving with it everyday since then!

I really didn't have the problems that other folks have had in fact i have only nicked myself one time! I am really enjoying it, the shave I get from the DE compared to those cheesy plastic razors is amazing!

I have been adjusting it every shave and am liking its adjustability. Now I have read where some folks like certain blades, the blades I have are the Merkur blades but I would like to try some of the others that everyone seems to like a lot.

So I guess my question is where would I find such a sampler pack? I have found sampler packs from a wide variety of companies but not the ones I am looking for Feather and the others just don't come to mind right now but I am sure that you folks know what companies I am speaking of.

So any help or input is appreciated.

Thanks
Wook

www.westcoastshaving.com has some pretty nice sample packs

Hi there Wook,
Another good source for blades would be Welcome To Connaught Shaving.com

Hey thanks!! I have just ordered a sampler pack of the companies I was looking for!!

Thanks for the guidance.

Though I'm not a fan of the site, I believe that other shaving forum offers some sample packs in their BST section. At least they did when I last looked; I haven't done more than log in there in at least a month.
