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

I bought this 100 pack in early 2020 & again in 2021. Quality is consistent, & the blades have the embossed logo & are not blank, as with some other listings. I use a shavette on my own face, as well as for barbering others. I also use a Zazor DE razor (not unlike a Razorine, but cheaper & better.) For years I used Wilkinson Sword razors bc they were ubiquitous & got the job done well. Astra Superior Platinum are just a bit less smooth & a bit sharper in comparison. I have thick, curly 3C hair, & this slices right through. Its also a breeze for use on others. Not quite as sharp or unforgiving as Feather blades & thats why theyre my favorite. My one little quibble is the waxy sealant on the envelope. I really wish it didnt have that as it builds up on my razors, but a little warm soapy water takes care of it well enough.

Recently switched to a DE setup. Started with the Van Der Hagen double edge blades you can get at the store. Suffice to say I did not enjoy them at all. Did my fist shave with these blades today and I am hooked. It was such a smooth experience. At times I asked is this even cutting hair and it sure was. Got a very close shave with no razor bumps or irritation. 10/10 would recommend

Si estaban buenas especialmente estas pero las que vienen conjuntos de tres o cuatro paquetes no están Yam buenas siento que las estarás del pago el blanco son mejores que estás nuevas astras que an salido

Sharp enough to get cuts if I’m in a hurry and strong enough to last a few days. I have thick... hair growth, gift and curse. When compared to 5 bladed Gillette razors, I use 2-3 of those in a week... that means $$$. With astra, I swear I use 2-3 blade weeks. I do use a cheap safety razor to clean. In conclusion I use two razors to shave... it super cheap.

And my barber shops

I previously tested the LORD brand, these are in the same range of quality and feel.

This is my daily blade, although I have light brown hair so my beard isnt the toughest. Less than a dime for 3-4 shaves for me. I dont care where they are made, they work for me.

They dull quickly...

Have used these for a couple of years. Astra are middle of range in sharpness and durability. I get far fewer nicks with these than others blades. All skin textures are different but these work for me.

Sharp. Been using this brand for years
