Single Edge Blades - Derby

Yes, the Derby Premium 100 Single Edge Blades are pre-cut half razor blades, designed to fit directly into shavettes and certain single edge razors without needing to be snapped.

The number of shaves varies greatly depending on individual beard thickness, shaving frequency, and technique. Many users report getting 3-7 comfortable shaves per blade. It's recommended to change the blade once it starts to feel dull or tug.

No, these blades are specifically designed for shavette-style razors and single edge razors. They are not compatible with traditional double-edge safety razors.

Store unused blades in their original packaging, in a dry place, away from humidity and direct sunlight, and out of reach of children and pets.

Used blades should always be disposed of safely in a dedicated blade bank or a sturdy, puncture-proof container (like an old tin can or plastic bottle) that can be sealed. Do not dispose of loose blades in regular household trash.

Ensure the blade is new. If it is, consider your shaving technique – apply less pressure, use a fresh lather, or shave with the grain. If the problem persists, the blade might be defective; replace it.

Re-check the blade insertion. Make sure the blade is correctly seated and fully secured within your shavette or single edge razor. Ensure all parts of the razor are tightened properly.

This could be due to a number of factors: dull blade (replace it), incorrect shaving angle (aim for a shallow angle, around 30 degrees), too much pressure, or insufficient skin preparation. Always use a good pre-shave routine and fresh lather.

Familiarize yourself with your specific razor's loading mechanism. Some shavettes require the blade to slide in, while others have a clip or hinge. Practice with an old blade if necessary, always handling the blade by its dull sides.
