You're never going to get a straight answer on that one... the quick answer is to get a sample pack, and try a bunch out.

Some popular answers will likely be Red Pack Personna, Israeli Personna, Feathers, Derby Extras...

My personal favorite is a BiC, but if I didn't try a sample pack, I never would have found it. So the moral of the story is to try as many blades as you can get your hands on and decide what you like best.

So your dad will be looking for another favorite blade? Get him a sampler pack from West Coast. I bet he would appreciate that.

Best answer YMMV!

You would need to try a sample pack. Westcoast has good sample pack of popular blades. One of them should suit you!
