Hello there!
I hope you're all well, and safe.
I'm still enjoying my Rockwell 6C (see my review https://www.theshavingroom.co.uk/community/index.php?threads/rockwell-6c-review.52138/#post-787483), as it remains (for the most part, talking to you Derby Extra, you tug-fest!) to be an equaliser of blades.
Although through many years of trial and error, and the consolidation of the following thought using the Rockwell 6C; I've come to the conclusion I can only use one DE blade per shave. My use case (please see my signature below) is probably very detrimental to the consistency of the blade edge.
I own many DE blades, having acquired several sample packs over the years. I've favoured a Feather on R6, and I've also experimented using smoother blades. But I have a somewhat limited knowledge of low cost versus quality. Some of the DE blades I've used are perhaps mid priced (with an exception or two) to expensive Feather, Perma Sharp, Gillette Silver Blue, Gillette Super Thin, Bic Chrome Platinum (cheap, but I didn't like it), Kai, and Bolzano Superinox.
For any experts reading my post, I do have caveats:
Thanks for reading, and thanks in advance.

For any experts reading my post, I do have caveats:
- Only cardboard cases please
- Cheap as possible (although I do appreciate the cost can be somewhat offset if purchased in bulk. However it'll be a while before I can commit to a bulk purchase)
- No PTFE also known as Teflon. I don't even cook with Teflon, so I'd prefer not to shave with it
- Almost (lets face it nothing is sharper) as sharp as a Feather, but smoother
