Short story for those who just want the bottom line:
In case you run across blades sold by or made for Graham Field Health Products, be warned; they are terrible.
Longer story:
I found these on ebay. The seller who apparently specializes in medical supply had two lots of 500 for $20, and a lot of 750 of them for $30. They were originally listed for higher but the seller dropped the price when they didn't sell. I bought one of the lots of 500. As of now some other poor soul has bought the other lot of 500.
On the Graham Field website they were listed for about $50 for a box of 250, and the markings, with the arrows and "MADE IN USA" on the tab, they look exactly like Personna "Barber" blades, which I actually happen to like. I had a little hope that being from a health supply company for an originally fairly high price they might actually be sharper, as I thought of Personna "Med Preps", but I thought they would be at least no worse than the "barbers" as I thought Personnas must be making them for them. So for 4 cents a blade I didn't think I could go wrong, but I did. I tried one in my SC NEW, they were rough and I couldn't get a close shave. I still had a hard time believing they would be that much worse than the Personna Barbers they looked like, and as I hadn't tried one of the store branded US Personnas in a while I loaded one up for my next shave, and as I had remembered, it was a much better blade than the GF.
So no matter how low the price is on these blades, they're not worth it, unless you know of some other use for them other than shaving.
