Yeah I know YMMV and someone is sure to say you should really have blade X on this list and or I hate Blade Y wouldn't even have it on the list. What I want is knowing what you know now, if you had been given this sample of blades when you 1st started DE shaving. What ordered would you have used them?
So your given a sample pack of blades, what order do you test them in?
