G.B.S Double Edge Blades for Double Edge, Safety and Shavette Razors - 50 Blades and Styptic Powder Jar stop shaving nicks and bleeding

I tried one of these in a sampler pack I purchased from another retailer. I really loved the balance between sharpness and smoothness, but I figured I'd try some of the other brands in the sampler pack. Last month, I decided enough was enough, and I was going to use the Nacet blades as much as possible, and placed the order for 50 from Amazon.The other day, I threw out all the blades in the sampler pack except the five Feather blades (I am going to try them one day to satisfy my curiosity), and placed an order for another 50 Nacet blades. This is a great blade, and the price allows for frequent changing of the blades (a 50 pack will last you 7-8 months if you use it four times, a great value compared to cartridges) so they never go dull. If you're shaving with a double edge, give these a try. If you're shaving with a cartridge, throw away your cartridges and razor, and switch to a good old fashioned DE and buy these blades. Your face will thank you.

You can have a lot of fun trying out different blades and razors but I have settled on on Nacents paired with a Henson medium razor smooth, comfortable, and long lasting blades.

Nice and sharp. As always, demurr with cork. Doesn’t last but 3-4 shaves then the pulling begins.

Sharp out of the box, unlike some of the coated blades. Great balance of smooth and sharp. Added benefit is no price penalty for ordering 50 vs 100. Only downside is overall price. Rapira Platinum Lux and Perma-Sharp are good alternatives for <$0.13 per blade vs $0.22 per blade. Rapira being tad less sharp and bit more smooorh. Perma-Sharp being the opposite.

Lasts for many shaves with my use when used in the Razorock Slant, the Gillete Super Speed, or the Fatip Bronze Safety Razor... I often use blades for 10 or more shaves.These are great blades, they shave like new for the first 5-7 shaves for me... just be sure you put hot water on a washcloth and hold it against your stubble for 10-15 seconds to soften it before you lather and shave... or shave right after a hot shower.

These blades are sharp, but they are not smooth. Even after using them for a couple months, I still have not really warmed up to them because the shave is always pretty harsh, i.e. gives me razor burn (and I don't have sensitive skin).

First off, I really like the Nacet and for me it is a thing of beauty in certain razor.s Muhle R89 and Razorock GC .84 come to mind. Big surprise was using in a Fatip Grande. Three passes and a good deal of cleanup. Took a little longer than expected, but fair exchange for a smooth shave with zero irritation. Look forward to trying them in a QShave (Futur clone), an old Feather Portable (Tech clone) for example and of course some assorted vintage Gillette's from the 50's.

Very sharp, smooth. Not sure about longevity; I always toss after three shaves. Very good value.
