Sample Pack

Anyone got any suggestions to which blade sample pack and where from?
I lost my last blade sampler - no idea what happened to it. Now I've moved to a Merkur Progress and I think I've got my technique down pat. I think the only thing I can do to better my shaving experience is to map the direction of my stubble growth.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I currently use Rapira Super Stainless.

Cheers

Speak to RM about a sampler and he might be able to sort you out. He has more product than the suppliers do anyway.
 
I've got some odds and ends which I've collected in my quest for the worst blade in the world, including at least one genuine candidate for the title. Happy to post you a few. You have to try a Shogun, just to experience how bad a blade can be. Personally I can't really tell the difference between the vast majority of available blades.
 
I think I'll pass on the worst blade sample pack - not that it would deter me from DE Shaving, I specify went to DE shaving so that I could avoid having bad shaves.
I will speak to RM (Razormonsta?) Thanks

Don't be a coward. In any case, there's only one really bad blade. The rest are all average to very average to above average. Basically the same range and result you'd get from any smapler pack. Although I've still got a load to try, there are only two stand out blades I've found so far, vintage Shick and Gillette. I'd love to find an easily available blade that'll give three shaves comparable to those two. Haven't really found one yet. RM (Razormonsta) has got more blades than you can poke a stick at.
 
If you PM me your address I have a lot of the usual suspects that you will find in a sampler that I'd happily send your way.
 
That'd be really cool if you could do that.

Done and done, no problems, I don't have quite as many blades as I originally thought (a few made it into the travelling box that I forgot about) but I still have a few to get you started.
