Derby Premium Double Edge Razor Blades – 100 Pack, Swedish Steel

Derby's step up from the Extra — sharper edge, longer life.

Derby Premium double edge blades are Swedish stainless steel with a chromium-ceramic, tungsten and platinum coating plus a polymer edge treatment. Derby positions Premium above their Extra line: sharper, closer, longer lasting. Made in Turkey by Azmusebat, who have been making blades since the 1940s. A hundred blades arrive as 20 dispensers of 5, each blade individually wrapped in wax paper.

• Sharper and longer-lasting than Derby Extra — the reason to pay the difference.
• Multi-layer coating: chromium-ceramic, tungsten and platinum, plus a polymer edge.
• Twenty five-blade dispensers means you stock a station without opening the whole hundred.
• Individually wrapped, so a dropped dispenser is not a hundred loose blades.
• Both edges are usable — flip the blade rather than binning it.

Questions Barbers Ask

How is Premium different from Derby Extra?

Sharper edge, closer shave, longer life — Derby's own positioning. Extra is the everyday blade; Premium is the step up. You can tell them apart on the shelf: Premium comes in black packaging.

Is this the same as the Derby Premium single edge?

No, and this catches people out. Derby makes a Premium single edge blade too — that is a different product for a different razor. This one is double edge. Check which your razor takes before ordering.

Can I use these in a shavette?

Yes, but you snap the blade in half along its centre score and load one half. A whole DE blade does not fit a shavette. Shavettes built for single-edge blades will not take a DE blade at all.

What razors take a full blade?

Any standard double edge safety razor — three-piece, two-piece or butterfly.

How many shaves per blade?

That depends entirely on beard density and how you strop your technique. In a shop, most barbers change per client regardless — which is the only correct answer for sanitation.

Why Barbers Love It

Blades are the cheapest thing in the service and the most obvious when they are wrong. A hundred-pack of a genuinely sharp blade costs less than a bad shave costs you.

About Derby

Derby blades are made by Azmusebat in Turkey, a manufacturer that started as an ironmongery wholesaler in the 1940s before moving into blades.
