    Default Sampler of blades?

    Sorry, I know this is cross posted but I thought this might be a better place for this question:

    Having persused a few forums there is always a LOT of talk about the different blades for DE razors and I'm intrigued. I'd love to try out some different blades but buying 100 blade packs at a time seems highly impractical. Is there such a thing as a sampler pack for these blades?

    Any ideas are most welcome, I'd be more than happy to spend a few bucks on a couple of blades from each of the main types. I'm interested in trying Derby, Israeli Personna, Merkur, European Gillette and any others than come recommended.

    Thanks for any assistance you can give me guys, LOVE the forum.

    Double that... I'd like to find a sampler pack to try out with my DE.

    I've also seen the need for these types of sampler packs. If others are interested, I don't mind doing the leg work to buying a bunch of each and putting together the packs. I already have a large supply of two of the blades.

    John,

    I think that's a great idea and would think new members would jump at the chance. Maybe cost it up and work out how much it would be for say 5 or 10 of each type of blade.

    Maybe a new thread would be able to gauge the interest of some of the newer members?
