Astra Superior Premium Platinum Double Edge Safety Razor Blades, 5 Count (Pack of 3)Compact by Design (Amazon-developed Certification)

I bought one of those sample packs with several different brands of razor blades. Took about a year to use them all. Most work fine. One brand was terrible. Astra was clearly the best. Shaves well and no nicks (as long as I'm careful not to use any pressure on the razor).

Great quality, got this recommendation off a Reddit thread & don't regret it. I have sensitive skin and an new to safety razors, and have had hardly and nicks from these blades, especially compared to gilette.

I bought this because I was traveling and forgot to bring my blades for my king c gillette safety razor so I ordered some blades I saw the astra platinum blades which I used in the past but it gave me a good shave but with the king c gillette safety razor it work incredible I shaved in the shower and it cut my hair like butter which I was very surprised how good it was I use gillette platinum which is my favorite blade and my go to blade to use but if there isn’t any to but the astra platinum is a good replacement to shave but it may shave me once or twice while gillette platinum can give me 2 to 3 or even 4 shaves out of it but these blades cost Pennies this pack for fifteen blades for 4.06 dollars for me so that’s 0.08 cents per blade on this deal which is incredible and gives a smooth shave easy. I recommended it to buy it and if astra gives me one or two shaves then it’s worth it most of these blades can get the max 5 uses but most don’t get that sharp and few can be dull but that’s ok get another one the next one should be better just get a good safety razor don’t get a cheap one the king c gillette is on the inexpensive side for 30 dollars which is inexpensive most safety razors are hundreds or more for the vest ones or vintage ones but king c gillette safety razor gives a mild and smooth shave with the right blade so these astras blades or really good if you are unsure get a sample pack that has two blades samples of astra but a pack of blades cost around a dollar or two so try it.

After decades of shaving I decided to try a DE razor. I have a Henson and it's been great, now I am looking for the best blade.ASTRA gets a lot of great reviews, and I can see why. They are very sharp and give a close smooth shave, but I did get some burn and a few nicks on my face; first time ever for that. These ASTRA's are from India and I don't know if they are significantly different from the ASTRA's from Russia.I'll keep looking for the blade that is close, sharp, smooth, comfortable and lasts.

Excellent

These arrived very quickly, and very well packaged, perfect!I just received them, but I'm very eager to try them out.I've seen many videos about shaving stuff where they highly praise these blades.And, got these for a great price too!

Blade quality is good but light.

I've been using these Astra Superior Platinum blades for a few weeks now, and I'm genuinely impressed. They strike a perfect balance between sharpness and smoothness, making each shave clean and irritation-free. I've tried other brands that either felt too dull or caused nicks, but these blades glide effortlessly.Each blade lasts me around 5-6 shaves, which is fantastic value for the price. The packaging is simple yet effective, and I appreciate the neat way the blades are individually wrapped.If you're looking for a reliable blade for your safety razor, I highly recommend giving these a try. They've earned a permanent spot in my shaving kit!
