Astra Superior Platinum Double Edge Shaving Razor Blades 100 Pcs Barber Favored by Astra

I have very thick, coarse hair but also sensitive skin. Ive tried feather but those are too aggressive and also a handful of others that wouldnt cut my hair as well. These hit the sweet spot for me. Still very sharp but still good for my skin and not overly priced either. These are my go-to blade for the foreseeable future.

I do not have a coarse beard, but these blades do shave nicely. The only problem is, they are so sharp, I have nicked my face mainly around the chin area. I just have to be careful when shaving. Other than that problem, I am satisfied with these blades.

As advertised.

Stainless steel means they last (I use a blade for at least a month so this $10 box of Astra blades will last me over eight years ... really inexpensive) and the platinum coating makes it comfortable (greatly minimizing razor burn). The Astra blades are perfect for me.

When it comes to double edge single blades I didnt need to look beyond the Astra Platinum. They reminded me of what I remember about the Gillette Platinum Plus blades from the 60s-70s! Smooth AND sharp and they last LONGER! If push came to shove I could easily double the number of shaves per blade and not sacrifice much! At less than 10 cents per blade that isnt necessary but it feels good to know that I could!!! I dont shave as often as I use to do which makes a single-blade razor all the more important. Multiblade razors just dont cut it on longer growth! They do fine at keeping a clean shave but they are an expensive one trick pony I sometimes use to stay clean shaven for several days on rare occasion. For that purpose they are fast and comfortable but not really necessary. I use Astras in a collection of vintage razors 70+ years old that are as good as the day they were made!!

These are super aggressive, which is great because I grow a really thick beard! My biggest complaint is getting them out of the paper wrapper, might want to pick a less adhesive adhesive. Apparently I’ve said something that’s triggered a sensitivity filter?

Received this product before delivery date. I have used this product and very satisfied with the results.

As smooth as it gets!

Works great, and very sharp.

Good
