Been wondering recently what the significance of the numbers 1, 2,3 4 is on DE blades. Can any forum members shed any light on this?
Thanks

Manufacturing processes. Determine which magical sharpening machine isn't sharpening properly.

Agree with NTS. The general consensus is that they're quality control marks.

If you tend to forget how many shaves you've had with a blade you can cross the numbers out with a magic marker to keep track :idea:

Don't believe any of them. It was designed by Derby it assist with SE uses. If you're using it in a SE razor or a Shavette you'll be able to remember which side of the blade to use on which day. You'll alway be shaving with the sharp side of the blade that way.
Only one more feature of Derby that most people don't appreciate!
