20 cardboard boxes on a display card - with 5 double wrapped blades per boxExtremely sharp, smooth and comfortableFits all standard double edge safety razorsProfessional qualityOutstanding longevity - retains sharpness and smoothness for many shaves
Yep. And they're pretty cheap. Link for the lazy.
Or you could learn to use a safety razor and shave for $.16 per blade. After the initial $20 for a razor.
But seriously, safety razors are the bees knees if you can find them. Best shave next to a straight blade.
3$ for the razor: http://www.amazon.com/Silver-Double-Shaver-Nonslip-Handle/dp/B0050HO9MI/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1411573438&sr=8-5&keywords=safety+razor

$3.50 cheaper, prime.
I bought this a while back and haven't even put a dent in it.
mid 40's shave every day.
Do yourself a favor and throw the fucking blades away after every use. You can buy 100 for less then $10 and shave every day with a fresh sharp blade, the sharpest it will ever be.
I buy my blades on amazon 10 bucks for 100 blades

Top shelf:
Van Der Hagen shaving brush.
It actually works pretty well, and is my most commonly used one.
Art of Shaving sampler pack brush brush.
I like it, but it seems to take me a lot longer to build lather.
Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue.
Not much to say about it, the wife likes it!
Adidas Aftershave
I like the smell of this one, and it pairs pretty well with the D&G
Coates Lime Shaving Cream!
I love the smell of this stuff! I have Sandalwood too, but it mostly sits in my small chest of things I have for "Another day"
Feather blade bank
Keeps my trash bags from getting ripped open. I have been using it for over a year, and it isn't even half way full yet.
Middle Shelf:
Lady Gillette Safety Razor
This one is the Wife's she loves it and uses it exclusively after she realised how much better it was over cartridges! It did take a while for her to stop thinking that she was going to Sweeny Todd her legs with one.
Gillette Knack Safety Razor
I use this one pretty much every shave. It is fairly mild, but paired with some Sharks it really works well for me!
No Name razor I picked up at an Indian Bazaar for $3.
It has about a 2 inch gap(exaggerating here, but it is huge!) between the blade and the head, so I haven't used it and probably won't! But it is pretty on the shelf!
Styptic Pencil
It works! And gets used!
Bottom Shelf:
Gillette Travel Tech
It has a small mirror inside and an old pack of Gillette blades. Nothing real special but I like it! I haven't shaved with it yet, the handle seems too short.
The rest of TAoS Starter Kit
I haven't used any of these yet, I still have my own soaps, so these kinda just sit around... I should try em though!
Gillette 40s Style Super Speed
I got this off an ebay auction, I haven't tried it out yet either. It came in great shape though! And I plan on giving it a test run tonight!
Gillette Milord
Apparently, it is the same razor as the Super Speed, but with gold plating. Also came in great shape, and I haven't tried it out either!
Shark DE Blades
These are my go to blades! I love em!
Wilkinson Sword Classics
I was buying these guys at Walmart, and I loved em! But then I got Sharks and I haven't had to buy anything else because of how many Sharks I still have left over!
Merkur Blades
I haven't tried these, I honestly have no idea how they came into my possession. They look nice though!
Alum Block
It works great!
Marketing is a huge cost.
That's why Dollar Shave Club (or Dorco)can sell a quad-blade cartridge for $1.50 while a Schick Quattro is $4 if you buy it at retail.
If you get into DE safety razors (shout out to /r/wicked_edge) you have a one time purchase of a $20-40 razor (that should last you a lifetime) and individual blades are only about $0.10 each. There is, however, the unfortunate risk of becoming obsessed & collecting things.
The drive to put more & more blades & fancy features on cartridge razors has very little to do with the quality of the shave & everything to do with getting people to constantly upgrade to the 'next big thing' - as long as you're on their current generation of blades, you have to buy their blades and the competition can't legally copy them.

Are my favorites. 100x blades for $10.
You can find them at Italian Barber as well but that Super Chrome from Fendrihan is a good deal.
