Choosing Blades

Sometimes, though infrequently, an individual blade is a "dud": damaged in manufacturing or poorly sharpened. Thus when trying a sampler, if you find a blade that doesn't work well for you, it could be that the brand isn't that good for you, or it could be that the particular blade you tried is a dud. Thus we recommend buying a minimum of TWO blades of each brand so that, if a blade doesn't work, you have another of the same brand so you can see whether it's the brand or a dud blade.

If you do get a single-blade-per-brand sampler, the only risk is that you might miss out on a brand that would have been good for you, and you may find that an acceptable risk, given the rarity of dud blades. But if you want to leave no stone unturned in the search for the perfect blade for you, try at least a couple of blades for each brand. If two in a row are bad, then you probably don’t want that brand: either the brand’s bad for you or the quality control is inadequate.
