Not good enough for the cost2008-04-01
There's nothing particularly wrong with Merkur blades, but they don't provide enough of a positive difference over the competition to be worth the extra cost. These are very basic razor blades, selling on Amazon for between $.50 - $.75 per blade. You can get Derbys for $.20 (100-pack for $20, with Amazon's free shipping), or get a pack of generic blades from Walgreen's, Wal-Mart, or any local pharmacy (almost all generic brand blades in the US are made by the American Safety Razor Company, and are surprisingly effective) for between $.15 (Wal-Mart) and $.35 (Walgreens) a blade. And if it's quality you're after, you should be using Feather or Swedish Gillettes. I have used Merkur, and they provide a fine shave, but there are cheaper solutions that do as good of a job.
Great blades at a good price!2007-12-04
I love the blades from Merkur , I have been using them now for about 2 1/2 years and I won't switch back to any other for nothing. When I need more I go to Amazon and I am back in business.
Great Quality and Value2007-11-20
These blades last me for a week (7 shavings) and perform very well. At less than 50 cents each - you can't beat them. The DE blades I find at my local drug store are actually more expensive than these. Order online in quantity and save gas and time.
In My Opinion. Not the Best.2007-11-09
I've been using a DE razor for awhile now. Love it! Would not go back to those expensive new safety razors if you paid me.

I have used both these Merkur blades and Feather blades which are made in Japan.

The Feather blades out preform the Merkur blades hands down. They are sharper, last longer, and I just can not find a fault with the Feathers. My beard is not real tough, but is I guess a little above average. Even with 2 days of growth and a blade that had at least 3 shaves on it. I was able to smoothly get the results I have come to expect.

When I bought my first DE razor, it came with a Merkur, because I had bought a Merkur razor (which I LOVE!). I bought an extra pack, and was not impressed. I then purchased a pack of the Feather blades and have not looked back.

You could buy 1 and half of these and be good for a years shaving, I think that says it all, the blades are very sharp but just take a little adjustment, very simple, very effective.

Covering Gray
Julia Youssef, Assistant Vice President, L'Oréal Technical Center answers your frequently asked questions about hair color: Covering All-Over Gray Covering Partially Gray Hair Covering All-Over Gray My hair is more than half gray. I tried a semi-permanent color but my gray hair doesn't seem to hold it. What can I do to get the gray out? You can get away with using non-permanent color when you are 25 percent gray. But when your hair is more than half gray, you need to use a hair color product formulated to cover gray hair. Gray hair -- actually, there's no such thing as gray hair, just white hair, which seen through your other hair, looks gray -- has a different texture and requires formulas meant to penetrate it. You may want to try L'Oréal Excellence Creme. Covering Partially Gray Hair I'm only 10 to 20 percent gray, and it makes my hair dull. Is there any way to cover the gray and not cover my whole head with color? No. Howeve ...
