100 Derby Double-Edge Safety Razor Blades
[DRB-100]

|||||||||||||||||
Product Description
Balancing both comfort and sharpness, Derby Double-Edge Safety Razor Blades have been made using some of the most modern manufacturing technologies available. Despite this, Derby razor blades remain compatible with all traditional safety razors, ranging from Merkur to Weishi. Their cutting edges have been coated using ceramic, chromium, platinum, and tungsten, deposited there using a process called sputtering. Combined, these materials help protect the cutting edges from rust while also increasing their hardness for better retention of sharpness. Derby razor blades must undergo rigorous inspections at each stage of their manufacture to pass muster. Once those inspections are complete, each one is packaged using wax paper to keep out moisture before being put into the sealed containers.
Azmusebat is the Turkish manufacturer that sells its razor blades under the Derby name. Possessing state-of-the-art facilities, Azmusebat is able to maintain a strong position in the Turkish market for both lighters and safety razor blades.

These derby blades are a ok blade they last for up to three to four shaves per blade, and are ok on the face the problem that I have with these baldes is that I have to always keep the blade hot if not they will tug and pull on my face the astra blades are a lot better, and I would recommend purchasing them instead of derby.

Derby's were the blades I started with a DE a few years ago. Paired with my Weishi (a nice mild starter razor which won't break your bank), they were very gentle and forgiving as I learned proper technique. I tried the three Derby types (horizontal, vertical and orange) and found no difference in the quality of my shave. For a few dollars more, I would recommend Astra instead but have no qualms about providing Derby with a big thumbs-up!

Same as above. The once vaunted blades seem to have deteriorated in quality. Not sharp, lots of skipping and the little sharpness there is it goes away quickly. For almost the same price I'd rather use one the Israeli or Russian blades.

All reviews here are at least a year old; in the mean time, Derby has apparently changed their blade quality (now commonly referred to as "verticals" where the older, and much superior ones, were the "horizontal" ones _name due to the writing format on the containers_) and they're now receiving mixed reviews with shavers. Sadly, I find these newer ones harsh and that they can nick quite easily. I can only assume that it's because the company's manufacturing is possibly leaving burrs with the edge grinding. IMO, there are many other superior blades offered through Fendrihan's than to have to wrestle with potentially sub-par blades.

The clever Turks who make these blades have numbered the two sides so you can remember whether you have flipped the blade once already. I easily get a week out of each side which means, with 100 blades in the pack, 200 weeks shaving for $18.00 or 9 cents a week. That's value!

I agree, a good second pass blade, however, what you get for what you pay makes this product a super value.
