I'm a returning customer, these blades are top of the line for me and if you have a mid to coarse beard, this is a good blade to suit your needs. These are so impressive because having coarse beard they last for several shaves; I use them for three or four shaves. Some blades only last for two shaves, these blades glide on my face effortlessly and shave hair like a hot knife through butter. I really recommend them if you don't want something as aggressive as feather in sharpness but with great smoothness. I even liked these more than personna lab blues in regards to sharpness, these also maintain the edge longer for me than personnas. Today, I went to my local barber shop for a hair cut and beard edging. Whenever I get my beard and hair done I give my barber some of my favorite blades. Well, today I gave him an Astra Super Platinum, he asked me right away for the brand. I told them these are called Astra Super Platinum. He told me these are the best blades he has ever tried with a client in regards to sharpness and smoothness. The other day I gave him some feathers and he told me Astra are far better in smoothness and sharpness as well. In fact, he asked me to get him some as soon as I can. He was very surprised how Astra blades glide in your face like hot knife through butter and maintain the edge longer than most blades in the market. Give them a try, for seven dollars a 100 pack, you do not have a whole lot to lose; I am sure you will not be disappointed. Read full review

I had been shaving with an old school Shick Injector razor. I got a new razor for Christmas and it used these style blades. I got a package of Gillette Platinum blades with my razor and liked them but looked on line at reviews of different blades. At the awesome price these were being offered at I purchased them. According to the label on the box they are made by the same company at the same location as the Gillette Platinum blades. They are super sharp and give me a baby butt smooth shave. I go six shaves, changing my blade every Sunday morning and I usually don't shave on Saturdays. At one a week I will get almost 2 yrs out of these blades at a cost of under $10. What a deal! I am going to try other blades just because it is part of the fun in the adventure of shaving but would recommend these blades with the understanding they are very sharp. I have not sliced or diced my face but it would be very easy if not careful.Read full review

I would like to recommend these blades to anyone who uses a safety razor in general. These are sharp and smooth at the same time, therefore, no matter what type of beard you have, these are the best deal for your buck. A couple days ago I took one to my local barber and he was just “astonished” to see how sharp these are, and how well they maintain the edge. He admitted feather blades are sharper but not even close as confortable as Astra Super Platinum. I like these even better than personna lab blues because these hold the edge longer and feel a bit sharper as well. The only downside is they are made in Russia and not in America. Other than that, I don’t find any other negative aspect about such great blades. Astra SP blades are inexpensive, in case you give these a try; you have got nothing to lose. At $9.98.00 a pack of 100 blades is not bad at all. I really like these blades; I hope you like them as much as I do. Best of luck in case you do.Read full review

Been a DE shaver for 40+ years and have used just about every make and model razor and blade with Shark and Feather being my favorites. With that being said, this is the first time I've used this brand blades. I've used them for about 2 weeks and am a bit impressed. 1952 Gillette; good shave but not as close as Feather but a smooth glide. 1966 Gillette; closer shave than Feather very smooth glide. Parker HD open comb; outstanding shave! Closest shave I've ever had. Better than Shark which I use sole in this razor. No drag or skips, excellent glide and left my face as smooth as my 10 year old grandson's face. These blades retain an excellent edge for 5+ shaves and could probably go 10+ for lighter beards. It is important to try any new blades in several different razors as no 2 are the same and all will yield different results. I recommend these blades as an excellent value with great durability and would be an excellent choice for the new DE shaver as they are fairly forgiving as well.Read full review

Great Blades that stay sharp! I have used other blades in the past but always find myself coming back to the Astra Super Platinum. I use them for 7 days and the blades are just as sharp and smooth on the 7th day as they are on day 1. Not sure I will ever try any other brand blades.
