Astra Platinum Double Edge Safety Razor Blades ,100 Count (Pack of 1)

These are pretty good blades, sensitivity wise they may be a little too harsh for a daily use. Every other day or every few is probably best. But still a great value and will last you a long time.

These are great blades at a great price. They are extremely sharp and provide a truly smooth shave for several days or longer. The wax dots are my only gripe: they dont detract from performance at all but I am faced with occasional cleaning of wax build up on the interior of the razor when swapping out blades.

The blades have been ok in the past. Havent tried these yet. Im annoyed I didnt pay better attention to country of origin. First it says USA which I know is false. Then made in Italy, which contradicts itself. Some reviewers said Turkey. Yes, I was an idiot, am idiot in a hurry to order a simple product and get on with life. These were made in Russia and Id send them back if I could. If you care where your products come from, be wary of Amazon.

I used Japanese Feather blades exclusively for a long time, but I didnt like the high cost (still much cheaper than those ridiculous cartridges, but expensive nonetheless). So I did a bit of research and read a lot of good reviews about these Astras. These are now my favorite blades: cheap, sharp, and comfortable. As for how many shaves you get out of them, that depends on you. I dont wait until DE blades get dull; theres no point. I use them for three shaves and then toss them. Please, PLEASE do not throw old DE blades directly into the trash! Get a blade bank or put them into any kind of closed container before you throw them away. I recommend getting a cheap blade bank or piggy bank or even a used food container that has a closing lid. It will take a LONG time to fill a container with these blades, but when you do (after a year or longer), seal it up with tape before throwing away.

I have tried a few different double edge razors i tried shark they were ok but about 2 or 3 shaves they get pretty dull. I have shaved with these Astra blades for a while i sometimes get a month out of one blade. I love these blades the best i have tried.

my go to blade.

I am a barber and do shaves. These are always sharp and precise .

I searched the internet for the best/sharpest blades. These were among the top two. Very sharp. use lighter pressure until you get used to them. Best price. Made by Gilette in Chechoslovakia. Individually wrapped. Never going back to over the counter blades or two or three blade cartridges.

I bought three boxes for the 3 men in my life (husband and two sons). My oldest son was the last hold-out and still used disposable razors with a shaving soap and brush. Hes hooked! He shaves his head and has a medium beard. It took him one shave to get the angle down right and he loves it! We are saving a ton of money (his wife thanks me). Yes, this is about a years supply, so I hope I can get them for Christmas next year!

Work as expected. Nice and sharp. Bought these to go with my safety razor--ladies, get yourself a safety razor, and these replacement blades which cost about 10 cents/each. Way cheaper than buying the disposables that are flimsy and expensive, and fill the landfills with more waste.
