Your Top 3 DE Blades ?

Connaught have lab blues for decent price.
I have a single lab blue to try, included with a recent b/s/t purchase & looking forward to it from what ive read.
In my limited experience, so far:
1) Astra SP
Super consistent, work really well in any razor, always give a good shave.
2) Polsilver SI
The longest lasting & sharpest blade by a long way compared to the few I've tried.
Not as universal as 1) e.g.
Do not like them one bit in a DE89, but, stellar in a 45c & 6 shaves!
Have a very tough, grey beard & usually get 2-3 shaves a blade, their incredible longevity means they are decent value for a premium blade.
3) Rapira blue-pink-black
Love 'em. They feel great & are forgiving of my bad technique, not as sharp as 1) or 2).
£4 per 100 on eBay you could do a lot worse. Quite like they are in packs of 10.

Prices have firmed up to c£12 including postage due to the week Pound

Best price I can currently find is: http://www.ebay.com/itm/100-Pack-Pe...500520?hash=item5d5f0ac7a8:g:LkAAAOSwT4lWRgJn I bought my first batch from here

My last batch came from here and they were a little cheaper, although they are temporarily out of stock: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/191205094000

Connaught are probably best value if want a UK supplier at £12+ postage: http://connaughtshaving.com/perslb.html

I have no connection with any of the above suppliers

I Andreas, sorry for the late reply. How does it work with the lending pool? What am I supposed to do to get my hands on one? :)

Simples: You click on this link and post a message saying something like 'Oh gosh! I'd love to try one of those. Could I be on the list, please' and shortly afterwards the 1912 will be delivered to your door. Give it a good clean, use it for a while, give it a good clean and send it on to the next person on the list. That's it in a nutshell. Then you look at the other posts in Lending Pool forum and see what else is exciting. That's after you went to ebay and bought a 1912, of course. :p:p

Allegedly the med preps & lab blues are the same blade, the only difference being that med preps are sterilised.
