This is one of the better variety packs I've seen in quality, quantity, and price per blade. These are an absolute must for beginner double edge shavers. You won't ever know which blade works best for you until you try a bunch. There aren't many brick and mortar stores that sell more that one (usually crappy) type of double edge blade. This pack has a lot of affordable/popular choices in the wet shaving community.
I received many good razors in this variety pack. My favorite blades were the Feather (sharp), Astra Superior Platinum (semi-sharp), and Derby Extra (medium/sturdy). Slightly less enjoyable were the Gillette varieties and the Astra Stainless. If you get the Crystal blades (made in Israel I believe), do yourself a favor and throw them straight in the trash. I had to take a plethora of passes and irritate my skin like crazy just to get a semi-clean shave.
Its fun to try different blades, I'm on my second order of these because none of them are the "best" for all situations. Depends on how long your beard is, how hydrated your skin and hair is, what shave cream/soap/oil is used, what day of the week it is, morning, night, yada yada yada... The Gillettes are good all round performers, yes Sharks and Feathers are sharp but a Derby will last forever. With 5 blades in each pack I randomly select a new one to use for the day or two or three or the whole week. They all work and do it well, its isn't 1909 steel you know. Some last longer than others, some are more sharp than others, some are too sharp, some are dull, and every combination in between. Would be a thoughtful gift for a safety razor user.
Just got my blades. 12 different brands to try. Excited to see how they shave. I received almost exactly what is pictured for this mixed set. One changed from the picture, most likely a packaging change, is the Feather Hi-Stainless are Feather NEW Hi-Stainless. I will update after I have tried a couple in my Parker 29L.
I received every brand featured and then some. I seen the reviews that said they didn't receive all pictured but ordered anyway and glad I did. I'm excited to try all of them. I even got the feather blades which I tried first and like a lot. Go ahead and order these because I'm very satisfied with mine
Nice little selection if you aren't sure which ones you like yet. Some of the packs even come with a place to dispose of the used razors in the back.

This pack is a really good resource for testing different blades. I was able to swap to a cheaper and more effective blade thanks to my experience with this set.
Received exactly what was ordered. I already had my best shave ever with one of the blades, and looking forward to trying the rest.
Received this in a very timely manner. All the blades advertised I received. Looking forward to trying all the DE razor blades.
